Will Cabela’s be closed on Thanksgiving 2022?

Cabela’s will be open on Thanksgiving Day. In spite of this, store hours will be shorter, and check with your local store to be sure, but it’s reasonable to assume an early close. For example, my Cabela’s was open 9 a.m. – 6 p.m. in 2021.

What time does Cabela’s open on Black Friday?

Cabela’s will open their doors at 5 a.m. local time on Black Friday.

4. Some deals are only available in the store.

Unlike other retailers (Target, Kohl’s, etc.), Cabela’s doesn’t offer all their deals online and some require a store visit. So expect to see this, especially with the Special Buys that start on Friday. As a result, it’s probably best to shop in store — the old-fashioned way — if you want to shop for those deals.

The exception here is Thanksgiving Day, when all the deals up to that point are available online.

 

5. Expect up to 55% off during Cabela’s Black Friday sale.

Now, the majority of sale prices hover around the 25% off range, but still, you can find deals on everyday clothes, like tops, pants, and sweatshirts, for up to 55% off.

Here’s what we saw in 2021:

  • 25 – 55% off apparel, including jackets (40% off)
  • 50% off sunglasses
  • 50% off knit beanie and glove combos
  • 50% off ammo cans
  • 25 – 30% off kids toys
  • 33% off fleece throws
  • 33% off camping gear like chairs
  • 25% off Redhead and Cabela’s brand hunting packs
  • 25% off hunting wear
  • 25% off holiday socks
  • 25% off holiday drinkware and dinnerware
  • 25% off turkey and fish fryers
  • 25% off tackle bags
  • 20% off boots
  • 20% off dog toys and treats
  • 15% off tents

 

6. In 2021, Cabela’s offered 50% off Bargain Cave prices during the Black Friday sale.

Let’s cross our fingers that we see this again in 2022. The Bargain Cave is Cabela’s clearance section. In 2021, we saw a lot of it marked half off online.

 

 

7. Cabela’s Cyber Monday is just a continuation of the weeklong sale.

Don’t expect anything new or fresh to show up on Cyber Monday at Cabela’s. It’s just the same sale that kicked off that previous Monday, likely much more picked over.

 

8. Get 10% savings on Cabela’s gift cards to use starting Christmas Day.

From early November through the Cabela’s Black Friday sale, you can get a 10% discount on Cabela’s gift cards. This means you can get a $100 gift card for only $90. However, there’s a catch: You can’t use these gift cards until Dec. 25 at the earliest.

 

9. Unless you’re spending at least $50, select free curbside pickup to avoid paying for shipping.

Granted, it might be hard to get out of a Cabela’s shopping trip for under $50, but it’s certainly possible. As a result, if you find yourself in this position, definitely don’t pay for shipping. Use Cabela’s free curbside pickup instead.

 

 

10. Does Cabela’s price match on Black Friday?

Unfortunately, no. Cabela’s doesn’t offer price matching on a competitor’s special offers or promotions, which Black Friday sales fall under.

Any other time of the year, though, you can price match a competitor within a 100-mile radius on an identical item if the competitor offers a lower price. And if you’re a CLUB Member, Cabela’s will price match and then beat the competitor by 5%.

Here are other stores that offer price matching.

 

11. What is Cabela’s holiday return policy?

A woman talking to a Cabela's employee at the customer service desk.

During the holidays, expect to be able to return your Cabela’s purchases up to 60 days after purchase with a receipt.

Don’t have the receipt? You’ll get the lowest current selling price in the form of store credit.
