In store pickup is free period. Unfortunately Moncton is the closest until Dartmouth crossing opens up in 2018. I know all about limited (competitive) selection regarding firearms in the valley (grew up there).
I have utilized the in store pickup dozens of times in Edmonton, a guy can even do that it the states to save a bundle if he has some business within a reasonable distance of the border. Obviously certain products are a no go for import but many products are fine to bring across. A quick search of the nearest store to the area you are headed and select that store for shipped destination and your order will be ready when you get there. Hard to get much easier than that, I have seen some people hack Cabelas but personally in my dozens of transactions I have yet to have an issue that was not resolved to or beyond my satisfaction. If you shop the sales, utilize their price match, free shipping or instore pickup and realize their stuff usually has lifetime satisfaction guarantee that they STAND behind how can you go wrong. Obviously every store is going to have the occasional person that is there to just collect a check, my experience has shown me if that level of not give a ###X is encountered one needs to go up the food chain until they encounter a professional to resolve the issue.
