I have purchased and sold Bills gear on ebay. Maybe check walmart? I live in socal and all my bills purchases have been online pretty easy to navigate google search Bills sweatshirt. Often coupons or special deals I'd search that too. I remember the first time I ever went to Rochester in 1992. I was shocked to see Troy Aikmen and Michael Irvin jerseys for sale at Wegmans.

Did you really take exception with me specifically calling out 50’s or is it that you’re a grown man that wears the name of a 20 something year old kid on your back?

Bray Wyatt Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 I've bought a few shirts from 26shirts.com I believe the founder is a Bills Mafia guy and the proceeds go to charity to help certain people (like each shirt is designed to raise funds for someone who needs it) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) Went to Walmart, Target, Kohl’s and overpriced Dick’s in Webster NY over the weekend. I'm thinking — This isn’t a good time for Bills gear. Maybe once summer camp opens more gear will appear. Kohl’s had a selection of T-shirts. I grabbed 2 for me and 2 for the wife. they had some hats but nothing said buy me. Target had some hats that we liked and grabbed. ***** Had some shirts but nothing I liked and their hats were 2X the price.

Augie Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I got my new gear yesterday. Recycling some old stuff and got a new Bills tee shirt, long sleeve tee and a hoodie.

Virgil Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 I’m in town this week for the Practice on Saturday. I’ve been to Target, Dick’s, Old Navy, and Kohl’s. The most anyone had was at Dick’s, and they only had two racks. Everyone else consolidated their sports licensed sections. It’s absolutely ridiculous. I know I can get stuff at the Bills store on Saturday, but it’s honestly shocking and disheartening how hard it is to find stuff in stores right now.

FilthyBeast Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 You'd be surprised how much (cheap) Bills gear you can find in other parts of the country. I've been out in places like Northern CA, Phoenix, Denver and other midwest cities and have seen very nice Bills stuff on clearance racks there. In fact at a Kohls in Phoenix area last year before the covid lockdowns I found a Josh Allen jersey dirt cheap for my son. This was also before he emerged as a legit franchise QB.

BiLLsMaFiA1982 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Hey Virgil and all out of towners, I buy my Bills gear from fanatics, what I do is buy fanatics gift cards from Costco.com or even kroger at a discount, costco.com have them for $40 for $50 gift cards right now, you can get them even cheaper on black friday and around christmas time, you can also get shoprunner 2 day shipping for free if you have a chase/citi/american express card as a free perk, I had mine for 10 years now for free and use it on fanatics.com and many other stores, sign up for fanatics and personalized you're account to Bills and any other sports teams you like, fanatics always have specials and when you combine all the above you really save cash! I also recommend you sign up for mitchellandness.com I once got a authentic super bowl thurman thomas jersey for $140 on thanksgiving from them, they have great specials on thanksgiving and black friday, hope this helps for you guys.

Golden*Wheels Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Well...I'd have recommended eBay, but once we got good again....our gear got expensive again. Like, it happened so close together it is obvious. Used to be a great place to fine NWOT etc type vintage stuff. And maybe I am not supporting the Bill shipping there, but most of the time a sale did support an actual Bills fan. I've gotten script hats ("the Griswold" as they are now known) from there many times, weird one off Bills event hats (QB camps, anniversary events), FOUR Bills leather jackets (Starter, natch), all VERY, very cheap. But it appears dem day is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
