A Main has been selling at those prices for as long as I can remember.

Am I missing something or is this Blow-Out Sale at Ace a gimmick?
I placed a substantial order yesterday.JR sent me e-mail listing everything i ordered with the before and after price.I called today to confirm the order and add a few more items.All i can say is if this is a gimmick i hope he continues it for a long time.The $avings were huge.
Here's wishing the ACE Boys all the luck in world in their new ventures.
