If you’re an outdoor lover or a frequent gym-goer, chances are you’ve been shopping at Dick’s Sporting Goods more than a few times. From clothing to footwear to sporting gear and everything in between, Dick’s is a one-stop shop to get you going with whatever your preferred method of exercise is or for your kid’s most recent after-school sport.
But if you’ve been wondering how to save money at Dick’s Sporting Goods, you’re not alone. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to do so without breaking a sweat. From signing up for email rewards to shopping during Black Friday sales, you can rack up the deals and rewards points faster than you can say the store’s name three times fast.
Whether you’re shopping online or in-store, these are the easiest ways to save major $$ the next time you’re in the market for sports gear.
1. Sign Up for the ScoreCard Rewards Program
The hands-down easiest way to save money at Dick’s is to sign up for the Dick’s Sporting Goods rewards program, ScoreCard and ScoreRewards. With your ScoreCard, you’ll earn one point for every dollar you spend at the store. Once you reach $300, you earn a $10 reward to spend at the store. Besides earning free money to treat yourself at Dick’s, signing up for the ScoreCard Rewards program will get you exclusive savings and discounts via email, too.
2. Get a 10% Email Sign-up Discount
This might just be the easiest way to earn Dick’s Sporting Goods coupons. Sign up for the Dick’s Sporting Goods email list, and you’ll get a 10% off coupon just for signing up. Plus, you’ll be the first to know about future sales and promotions too. It’s a win-win.
Want to kill two birds with one stone? Sign up for the Dick’s Sporting Goods ScoreCard Rewards program and opt into emails while you give the retail chain your information.
3. Get a $20 Text Sign-up Discount
Just like signing up for the email list, giving Dick’s Sporting Goods your phone number and opting into promotional text messages is an easy way to earn coupons. You’ll get a discount code for $20 off a $100 purchase just for signing up, plus you’ll have access to plenty of future promotions. That’s a different deal from the one you’ll get for signing up for Dick’s emails — it pays off to stay connected on multiple platforms.
4. Shop Annual Sales at Dick’s Sporting Goods
Dick’s has plenty of savings opportunities all year, but some hold deeper savings than others. These are the big ones to look out for:
Dick’s Flash Sales
Dick’s Flash Sales pop up more frequently than any other sale. Sometimes, they last for one day only, while other times, the sale is good for three days. Make sure you’re on the email or text list to get notified as soon as they go live.
Dick’s Summer Sale
The Summer Sale usually happens just before Father’s Day in June online and in stores. Last year’s Summer Sale included up to $200 off select golf clubs, up to 50% off Nike, Adidas and Under Armour shorts, 25% off Crocs for the whole family and more. It also will include extras like the Summer Bonus Event, which gives ScoreCard members a chance to earn a $10 Bonus Reward for purchases over $150.
Dick’s Black Friday Sale
Black Friday is a great time to score once-a-year deals, and Dick’s is no exception. Expect savings on men’s, women’s and kid’s clothing, as well as on golf equipment, bikes and other sporting goods. It’s a great time to get your holiday shopping taken care of — or just to buy yourself a few gifts. And while Black Friday is undoubtedly the biggest shopping day of the season, check out the day-after-Christmas and Cyber Monday (or Cyber Week) deals at Dick’s, too.
Dick’s Clearance Sale
Black Friday comes once a year, but the Dick’s Sporting Goods clearance section is always available for your perusal, both in-store and online. From branded gear supporting your favorite sports teams to everyday fitness equipment, Dick’s clearance section will help you find steals for as much as 80% off the original price. You just might find something you didn’t even know you were looking for.
5. Shop the Dick’s Sporting Goods Warehouse
Dick’s Sporting Goods has outlet stores, per the chain’s website. And the outlet locations offer “Warehouse Sale” deals of up to 70% off every day. Unlike regular Dick’s locations, Dick’s Sporting Goods outlet stores have a return turnaround of only 30 days if you end up changing your mind about an outlet purchase. The good news is that you can still earn ScoreCard Rewards points and use your hard-earned reward certificates at Dick’s outlet stores.
6. Check for Rebates to Earn Money Back
Rebates are an easy way to save money anywhere you shop, and Dick’s Sporting Goods has no shortage of rebates to offer. Many of Dick’s mail-in rebates are for cameras, but there are also rebates for outdoor items like arrows and broadheads, too.
7. Even More Dick’s Shopping Tips
Use In-Store Pickup
ScoreCard members get free shipping with purchases over $49 and everyone else gets free shipping on orders over $65. But if you live near a Dick’s Sporting Goods store, use the in-store pickup option for orders less than that when you’re shopping online. There’s a curbside option available if you don’t want to walk into the store. And if what you’re shopping for is available in the store, Dick’s employees can have your order ready in as little as an hour. Saving money and time? Sign us up.
Dick’s Sporting Goods Price Match Policy
Want to shop at Dick’s, but you’ve seen the clothing item or accessory you’re looking for at a lower price somewhere else? Dick’s has a price match policy for competitors, including Amazon, Kohl’s, Foot Locker and plenty more. It has to be an identical product (obviously), but the store’s Best Price Guarantee is a great way to earn those ScoreCard Rewards points still and get the best bang for your buck. You can use the price match policy in-store and over the phone — it couldn’t be easier.
Dick’s Sporting Goods Return Policy
If what you ordered from Dick’s doesn’t fit or isn’t what you expected, don’t just eat the cost and let it sit at the back of your closet. Dick’s Sporting Goods has a generous return policy.
As long as you have the receipt, you can receive a full refund to the original form of payment within 90 days on most products. If you don’t have a receipt, just show your ID and you’ll receive store credit for the item. (Yes, that theoretically means you can return a gift even if you didn’t get a gift receipt.) There are some exceptions, such as bikes, helmets and baseball bats, but returning something you aren’t happy with to Dick’s shouldn’t be an issue.
Dick’s Sporting Goods Weekly Sales Ads
You don’t have to wait until the holiday season or for your favorite products to go on clearance to get a good deal. The Dick’s Sporting Goods ad has all the weekly specials, so you can shop knowing you’re getting an extra-great deal, no matter what time of year it is. Some weekly deals Dick’s has offered in the past include $50 off a Fitbit, 40% off select apparel and 30% off outdoor gear, so it’s worth perusing the weekly ad before heading to the store.
ScoreRewards Credit Card
To save even more money on workout clothes and equipment, sign up for a Dick’s Sporting Goods credit card. There’s no fee to apply for the ScoreRewards credit card, and you’ll earn 2 points for every dollar you spend at the store versus the 1 point you’d earn per dollar with the regular ScoreCard rewards program. Plus, cardholders earn a $10 Reward for every $150 spent on qualifying purchases at other Dick’s store brands.
The Scorerewards credit card also gives you access to ScoreCard Gold rewards, including “Pick Your 3x Points Day.” If you know that you’ll need to make a big purchase at the store, this is a great way to rack up reward points fast. Don’t want to open another credit card? You can also join the ScoreCard Gold rewards program by spending $500 at Dick’s in a calendar year.
Download the Dick’s App
Want to add some bonus ScoreCard Rewards points to your account? For starters, you’ll earn 50 Bonus Points for downloading the app and 100 bonus points for connecting your fitness tracker to the Dick’s Sporting Goods app. Plus, the app gives you an easy way to shop online and see what rewards you have available in-store. You’ll also receive app-exclusive discounts throughout the year.
