Any deals on hub shelters?

[IceFishinJoe]

I am in the market for a hub shelter for this season and I was wondering if anyone knew of any early season deals? I have never had a hub before only suitcases and flips. Recommendations?

 No sales as of yet check out the best deals thread daily .Couple tips ...insulated is the way to go ...cost is a tad more but worth it . Full door is a great option ...as are removable windows . Grommets in the skiting is a huge deal and a wide bottom .

What size are you looking for? 2-3, 3-4, 4-6 person etc.? I will keep an eye out and share anything I find here.

Eskimo offers a discount for military/first responder/ gov workers/ teachers. They will apply it on top of sales too. I got a 949i for 275ish delivered 2 years ago

Probably a 3-4. Just really getting back into ice fishing this year. I took about a 10 year break

At this time of the year you are probably going to see deals mainly on the discontinued or overstockd hubs from previous years such as this...

Amazon just had Eskimo Outbreak 250HD on sale, I got mine for $327, which was $100 less than Eskimo's site.

Sportsman's Guide has had some pretty good pre-season prices, but a more limited selection. Not exactly sure how good the quality on the store brand is, but I'd risk that over an off-brand Amazon purchase any day.

Most of last season, Fleet Farm had a fair price on their larger hub shelter. I've got the smallest (1-2 man-really a 1 man) uninsulated and mid-sized 2-3 man (2 men reasonably comfy) insulated.
