Haven't been to this event before, looking forward to it. Do the big retailers have discounted clothing available?

You'll find some pretty good buys on last year's gear or stuff folks are trying to move. It seems like anymore, most of the major manufacturers have set pricing that they hold the retailers to, as far as current gear. That being said, a lot of the retailers will do some show specials. I've found some pretty good deals over the years!
