Lafayette - East Side (SR26) has lots of wwb 9mm for $20.97 per 100 ct.. I also saw .40 and .45 there. Did NOT see .38, .380, nor .357.

Data good as of 1:30 pm, Feb 19th, 2010.

OK I wasn't going to ask but what is Smurfing???

Urban Dictionary: smurfing

Kind of stole the term from the meth-heads. I don't think they'll care.

I hate buying ammo at Walmart. I usually have to spend 30 minutes trying to find someone to open the cabinet and then they have to go find the keys. Ridiculous! I usually have much better luck a Dicks Sporting Goods. Even though they cost a bit more I don't have to waste and hour to save a couple of dollars.

My last trip in Wally (Lafayette, East side), I went straight to the auto dept and requested someone for sporting goods. W/in three minutes, I was checking out for $20.97 per 100ct WWB (4 boxes), along with 4 dvd's and a loaf of bread.

Last time at Dicks (Lafayette), I waited three minutes for one (of two) guys behind the counter to finish screwing around with some gadget, just to tell me that 100ct WWB was $29.99 per box. Needless to say, I didn't purchase any.

I guess my time isn't worth a 43% markup in price.

But, I am glad to know other peoples' time is.

Anyone else feel like they are a smurf when purchasing ammo from Walmart? I tend to swing by a couple of different Wal Marts on the NE side and feel like I'm doing something illegal when purchasing ammo. It's only sold in small quantities (2 box maximum), but I continuously go back even with poor findings. It's like a drug addiction - I find myself paying cash so my wife won't see my weekly habit on the credit card statement. I find an occasional box of elusive .45 and I'm instantly warmed from the inside out. I tend to offer to "pick something up" for my wife to justify a visit with high hopes of seeing my dealer with a fresh supply.

I seriously feel like a meth-head purchasing pseudoephedrine in small amounts from different places. Is this normal?

I'm exactly the same way... though I'm looking for calibers like .380 which is nearly impossible to find right now. Also, I'm in Fishers so now I know I've got competition late nights while I'm out running errands for my wife!

Ha... yeah, I tried surfing Walmarts too. I try to stop at Dick's Sporting goods for reasonable ammo prices, pick up a few boxes each time I'm out. I quit drinking so I can support my other habits. Bacon and Boomsticks to all !

East side WM still had a shelf full of 9 as of earlier today, for anybody looking.

I've been clean of "smurfing" for almost a week now. I think I'm about to fall off the wagon!

I would like to give some Mushroom Stamps to some of their staff. Everytime I go in, they have instituted a new rule that seems to not benefit the customer.

 

[Stimp]

I'm with you guys. I reload my own so don't really need to buy any from the store but I still stop by everytime I'm there just to see how the ammo supply situation is going.

So far my wife just rolls her eyes, humoring me. I am waiting for the day to come where she asks "how much do you need?"
In the mean time I try to hide how much I have. Sounds just like an addiction doesn't it?

96th Walmart case still down, but they do have stock under the counter. They had 4 boxes of .45 yesterday afternoon.

 

[bmwdud]

short cut

got a tip for ya ,go to the back door at the automotive repair and it will take you right in to the sporting goods where the ammo is .saves a lot of steps

 

[drgnrobo]

OMG the auto dept.entrance,brilliant, bmwdud is thinking outside the box for us lazy guys

 

[E5RANGER375]

why are people freeking out and buying so much ammo? god its like a grocery store sell out 5 days before a hurricane. you knew you live in hurricane ally and you knew it was hurricane season but you waited till the last minute to get your crap. funny. good thing S didnt hit the fan a couple years ago, i might have been the only one with ammo, some of you would have been using your guns as hammers. hehehe
