Well watching tents being put up does not entertain me much. Now, a busy wet boat ramp with moss on the lowest 10 Feet of the ramp with a boat retrieving individual who has had a
Few, and you got a sideshow.

That is approximately $150 US. If you can find stock in your local store there is no shipping obviously, otherwise as of this posting there are 8 in stock on line. So the question is...do you go directly on line and get one now before they are all gone or do you risk wasting time phoning your local store?
I picked the last one up in Kelowna but there was no cardboard box. It still had the new smell when I unzipped the bag in the store so I got it. They also gave me another 20% off for being out of the box, so it cost me $163 Can ($123 US) plus tax.
There is light rain out today so up it went in the family room. It is huge, had to push all the furniture to the sides. I am very impressed with the quality.
Good luck on your purchase

Looks like they still have stock in the warehouse of this discontinued screen room. I also noticed they have a Cyber Monday shipping discount of $25 for this item.

Thanks for the tip! I just ordered one online. Shipping was only $13.57 after the discount. All-in I paid $243.16 CAD. That's a deal. I got the 6 so we can put it over the campsite's picnic table and still have room to move. We were about to buy an event tent, but those steel legs weight a ton and there are no sides unless you buy additional solid panels.

I really appreciate the heads-up on the Gazelle. I got the G5 with 5 wind panels for a total of $181.95 and free shipping. Will probably sell Clam Quick Set, too big for normal use for two.

3 left!!!
When I checked late December they were sold out on line. Really glad I got mine in the store. I managed to get it set up and this thing is huge.
They must have found a few still left in the warehouse or had the ones in the stores returned to the warehouse for clearance.
This is a smoking deal for us in Canada that always pay a premium for such a product.

Or, they employed a commonly used sales technique to instill a sense of urgency.

I guess you could always ask the people here that wanted one when they ran out in December.

I sold my green Clam (6 sided) last summer and bought a tan 5-sided Gazelle. I wanted something shorter and lighter, so it's easier to transport. I only set it up once in the back yard (left it up for about a week) so far, because the summer camping season was already over for me and I was back to work. The grandkids loved it and all went to sit inside it during our Labor Day get-together. It didn't seem any cooler than the Clam in our hot Oklahoma sun; the fine mesh screen still holds in heat and inhibits breezes. But in cooler places where I like to camp during summer (mountains or up north), I expect to get some use out of it.

We originally purchased the larger Clam pop up but it was a 2 person job so it was returned for the smaller 6' Clam which is perfect for 3-4 people and 2 dogs.

Their Back
The Gazelle Screen Room is back at Princess Auto (Canada) in two sizes for a reasonable price. They don’t call it by name but picture shows as Gazelles.
I wanted to see the regular price other stores are asking but most are out of stock.
We love ours and it is huge covering a very large picnic table. As they say it goes up in about 2 mins.
