I just picked up this safe today, not many left as I had to go to 3 stores, 0 left at woburn, 0 at saugus, 1 at Danvers (which I grabbed). The $297 price is legit at all stores. Also used a $25 off $250 card I got in the mail. Total price w/tax $285.60.
well I'm glad I "forgot" to stop bye the Woburn store on my back today.

Go back and get a refund for the sales tax. Gun safes are tax exempt in MA.
got the part of the Mass DOR regulations that gun safes are exempt?
There is no doubt it is a gun safe just by Sentry's description online and the configuration of the shelving
BTW thanks to everyone who contributed to this thread and saved us some big bucks
