Yo just got back from huntin’ All-Star hat deals like a madman. Crazy how these prices swing man, lemme dump my play-by-play while it’s fresh.
Why I Went Diggin’
My old hat smelled like a swamp after last game night – sweat stains goin’ yellow, brim floppier than a wet noodle. Figured hey, All-Star season means sales, right? Just needed a legit one, not some flimsy trash.
Step 1: Hit Them Sites Hard
Opened like ten tabs ’bout MLB shop and big sports spots. Smashed that search box: “All-Star Hat 2023 deal”. Half ’em showed last year’s crap first. Gotta be patient like watchin’ extra innings.
First Score: Fanatics had a 25% flash sale popup, but only for pink hats?! No way. Almost rage-clicked off.
Second Try: MLB shop homepage flashed “30% OFF STARS” – heart jumped! Clicked it… boom. Regular season hats only. Felt like a swing and a miss.
Step 2: Dig Deeper Man
Said screw it – time to tunnel. Searched “Clearance All-Star Hats” proper. MLB shop clearance looked like a thrift store:
- Navy blue Dad hat with team patch – okayyy
- Shiny gold snake thing – nah, lookin’ cheap
- Classic navy franchise hat – ding ding!
Saw $32 slashed to $21. Checked sizing – got a medium dome, so took XL always. Big win.
Step 3: Shipping Trap
Added to cart, ready to smash PAY! Not so fast… shipping $5. Didn’t wanna lose the find. Searched “Free ship MLB” real quick. Found a code – SWINGFREE. Slammed it in coupon box. Worked! Total locked at $21 flat.
Pro Tips from Getting Burned Before
- Don’t trust front page promos: They’re teasers, bait and switch nonsense usually.
- Clearance section is gold: Filter directly to “MLB All-Star Gear”, sort by price low-high.
- Sizing mess: New Era caps run smaller lately – size up if sweaty or big head game.
Hat arrives next week – felt like stealin’ it payin’ $21 bucks. Screamed at my laptop when payment went through. What about you snagged one cheap?
