Jumped back in with a big splash. I received my PADI OW in 1985 and dove on every occasion I could for 15 years. Pit together a nice set of gear. In 2000, sold most of my gear went off to college, got married, and settled down. Since my wife was not a certified scuba diver, I would make a couple of dives a year at most using rental equipment. Roll forward to 2018. After many years of trying to get her to overcome her fears, she finally decided to take the plunge. SHE LOVED IT and couldn't understand why she waited to long to get certified. When she finished her OW, she asked me if she could go for AOW. I of course jumped on the opportunity and agreed to do it with her. Got nitrox together after that. Then advanced through Rescue Diver with her. We try and dive at least 2 or 3 times a month now and with all of the classes, then basic equipment, then the rentals, I figure it's time to buy all of our own stuff, for both of us. I'm trying to hold out for a (I'm hoping for) Black Friday Sales. Anyone know of and good places to watch for or are black Friday sales uncommon in diving? I'm in south florida but have to issues ordering online and paying freight.
