Does anyone know if there are any good deals to be had at this? It might make for a fun little road trip!
If I remember what Sam from Three Wave told me there will be a sale going on, but it will be the fairly standard 10% or so. They were also giving away freebies at the instore event Three Wave just did last week based on how much you spend, assume they would have something similar going on there.
