Old retrobate _read a flyer from Gander_ [ed. source] that there would be 22LR on-hand Saturday, 4 April, limit 2 boxes per customer. We were at the front door @ _0858_ [ed. stupidfingers...] (store opens at 0900). The parking lot was maybe 1/8 full. Nobody but the two of us were at the door.
We went in, made our way past the FULL shelves of rifle, shotgun, and pistol ammo. But NO 22LR to be found. Asked a store worker who checked in the back, nada. Someone came in and claimed to have called ahead to reserve a box, no holy joy. No idea if her claim was true.
I overheard someone say a potential rumor, again I have no idea... some folks had been circling back in again to get more than two boxes.. Again, no idea... BUT a simple response to that is get out some hand stamps. Problem solved.
Didn't buy a thing up there.
I can remember travelling over to the original Gander Mountain at Wilmot... Usually at night... in the fog... by the tight turn down by the Fox River... Again, no idea what the true haps are, but I am quite unmotivated to go to the Janesville store for supposed 22LR ammo. But they normally do come through with flats of shotgun ammo, however.
