Outside of the bi-annual storewide sales they rarely discount unless something is on clearance and they’re just trying to get rid of it. Of course you always get the dividend rebate every spring on any full priced item you’ve bought in the previous year but it’s still a bit jarring for most people having to pay full retail at the time of purchase. Still the service is always top notch and the return policy unmatched in the industry so most loyal customers find it’s worth it.
