I learned this lesson the hard way, after buying a pair of breathable waders, a backpack, a rain jacket, a pair of rain pants, and an insulated bib from Dicks over a couple years. None of it lasted more than a season. Now I only buy quality gear with lifetime warranties and couldn't be happier. The crap that Dick's sells is cheap for a reason...

Hope this saves you some hassle. If you can't sell the gift cards, buy lures or line... Something they can't screw up.
