Default 40% off shopping day

The Lake Wales store in Central Florida is closing after this weekend.
They are having a 40% off parts sale and some clothing was 50% off.
I got there at noon and closed the store, 5pm
The lines were two hours to get checked out for most of the day.
I was looking at those lines and just kept walking around and picked up more stuff, and more stuff......
I finally found a box and loaded everything into it
Then I went to the parts guy - BIG MISTAKE -
You wait in a different line, look through the catalog and when it was your turn he would go in the back and pull parts
The people around me were not having any luck with their models, sold out
Every item I asked for, 08 Ultra part, he would come out of the back with a box.
At 5pm, the customers have all left, I asked if they had any SE 255 CAMS - BAM he walks out with a box.
I say what about the SE A/C - another box
Black fork legs, lower and upper - another box
The other parts guys laughed, I told him to STOP
It was too hard turning down parts for 40% off
So I put back a jacket, jeans, boots and got the above items.
I also got some winter gloves, push gas button, highway pegs, two sets of brake pads, and some boots to keep the girlfriend happy.
I can afford to get everything installed right now, but it was too much of a savings to pass up.
I did here one sales girl talking about tomorrow, Sunday, being 75% off
I am wondering if I should go back down and pick up a SEST to go with my A/C and up coming cams project. I am going to need something and was going to go with Jamie's PCV, but a 40% off SEST may do.

So I may head back down tomorrow; anything I missed?

Yes, I did drive the SUV down, so I was okay loading up.

Go get the SEST, especially if you get it for 75% off!! You can do the fork legs yourself......not hard at all if you have basic tools and can walk and chew gum.

Yes, but you can take the forks off the bike then drain the fluids. The job is not hard, but time consuming because you have to remove the front wheel, brakes, and fairing.

Over $700, but I justified it by telling myself it was parts I was planning on buying at some point.

I just would not want the local dealer to go out of business tho, altho I wish they would have a 20% sale once.
