I now am an owner of WSS and Russel's

Being that UFA (United Farmers of Alberta) has just purchased Wholesale Sports, and Russel's and also being that I am a long time member of UFA, that now makes me part owner. First order of business if I have a say in the matter :rolleyes: will be to designate someone to dispense ammo and other goodies without having to take a number. :D Oh...I'm also going to make the clerks wear orange smocks ;) I called Russel's and asked them if I could purchase fencing pliers....buddy didn't see the humour, oh well :p

Hey all you UFA owners!

If you are looking for a new company uniform, instead of an orange smock, might I suggest something along the lines of;

How about a pink sky hook or a can of compression that will have them lookin for a while.
 
As part owners, my wife and I want to implement that we close down the WSS stores and combine them with the UFA stores. Put everything on the floor but guns and loaded ammo. The we can pick up fence posts, shingles and reloading supplies without ever talking to the dud behind the counter and no wasted time waiting behind window shoppers :)

I passed the big titted, tight outfit wearing counter girl through the wife and she had no problem with it, as long as she can look too :eek:. I have no problem with that :D

You da man Joe...I'll pass that on. Ok, here's another idea. You know how Home Depot has these in store "how to demos". Good for business as they end up purchasing products right there and then. Well, how's about we have such demos in store also. Reloading for dummies, stock bedding 101, rifle stock painting for beginners, and heres a good one....how to properly mount a scope :D

I'll ask that we don't turn this into yet another WSS slagging thread, let's just have some fun with it. :)

My Gawd....I curse about that everytime I go into the store. I know they've lost about $400 in ammo sales from me in the past couple months. Stand in line for 30 minutes and you get one number closer in line......I'll go to Cdn Tire thanks anyways. It wouldn't seem to be rocket science to me that they have one $15/hr kid just grabbing ammo and powder and such while the other clerks served gun buyers. I've stopped going there for ammo just for that reason!

Except that kid would be the highest paid employee in the dept. But ya, have an express counter just like safeway:p

Yes.. That is us last spring.. Hunting beavers.. You can't see it in the avatar but we are standing in 6 inches of cold April water.

He has been out pulling the trigger this spring and loves it.. doesn't really aim or anything but sits on my lap and makes it go bang.. We were shooting ice and he loves watching the chunks fly..

and because we are just having fun here, may I suggest that you could use a little brush up on the basics and would do well to attend a few demos:D

hey all...what's Russell's? I think I might know...but I can't recall much more then a vague memory of seeing something (logo/ad/banner...something) but not much more then that.

could someone provide me with a website link?
