Thats interesting; Sears has a "all gladiator storage" on sale this Saturday, too! Makes you wonder if Gladiator puts them on sale or the stores do; I think the coincidence is just too obvious for them to just be put on or decided by the stores! The Sears sales has a interesting wrinkle to it; you save 10%-15% off in addition to the sales prices depending on how many you purchase... hmm, I wonder who has the better deal?

Many manufacturers control the selling point of their product. Some will not let a store sell (or advertise) their product below a specific price point. Which is why you see "Price to low to print" in many fliers.

This is a tactic of manufacturers to keep their product away from discount mentality and maintain the perceived higher quality. My guess is Gladiator is one of these manufacturers.

I think this is also the time of year when product lines get "refreshed"; they may be trying to move the old products out of the warehouses! :)

I wonder if there is a difference in the Gladiator Garage works and the "Cadet" Series in that Menards ad?
