Inside Dick’s Sporting Goods’ biggest store secrets including how to get a special one
THE best savings secrets for athletes who love shopping at Dick’s Sporting Goods have been revealed.
Consumer analyst Julie Ramhold has uncovered the store’s hot deals from online hits to in-store bargains.
ONETIME OFFER
When you’re ready to splurge on Dick’s Sporting Good’s website, you can sign up for their email chain for a 10 percent discount best life.
Consumer analyst Julie Ramhold said, “That means you’ll save 10 percent on your next trip, but you have to use it within a week, so don’t sign up until you know you’re ready to shop.”
She mentioned another caveat and explained what happens after this crucial week.
“After that, Dick’s often sends out coupons to get percentage off individual items or the like, but it’s important to remember that certain brands may be excluded and you can’t necessarily stack them with other coupons.”
DISCOUNT OFFICES
If you’re willing to give Dick’s your phone number, you’re opening yourself up to one of their best deals, Best Life reported.
Ramhold said, “If you don’t mind sharing your phone number, you can sign up for SMS to get $20 off a $100 online purchase.”
It’s also important to remember that sharing this information with them means their other coupons and invitations to special events will also be sent right through your phone.
Should the communication become too frequent, simply send an SMS with “stop”.
SIGNED DELIVERED SEALED
If you’re fed up with the hefty shipping costs associated with shipping some exercise equipment, consumer pro Andrea Woroch has the perfect hack for you.
She advises that you can “choose the ship-to-store option and curbside pickup to avoid delivery fees.”
Woroch added, “Remember, Scorecard loyalty members receive a lower threshold offer with free shipping for $49 or more, but you must be logged into your account to qualify.”
You usually have to spend $65 to get free shipping at Dick’s.
IT’S A MATCH
Many customers don’t realize that Dick’s Sporting Goods policy allows them to offer you the same good deals on goods as other retailers.
Woroch explained, “Always compare prices before buying anything online or in-store at Dick’s Sporting Goods as they match the price. They have a very generous price match policy that few people know about!”
RECEIPT OF PURCHASE
For more handy discounts, see the bottom of your printed receipt after shopping at a Dick’s Sporting Goods brick-and-mortar store.
Ramhold said this is a common spot for the chain’s coupons.
“It can be $20 less than $100 or so and it’s limited to a short window. So pay attention if you plan to use it.”
