REI Anniversary sale and Members' only sale starts Friday May 17

[SempreMare]

I finally made it into a REI store to try on rain jackets.   I liked them all! 

 

A REI sales rep gave me a heads up that the REI Anniversary Sale starts Friday May 17

She also said that

- Members will also get 20% off any full price item during that time.

- If you buy within 2 weeks of that sale the 20% off can be refunded.

 

People who work at REI are totally nice and genuinely helpful!

REI is an awesome place - pricey, but you can find deals if you are a co-op member and watch for sales!  The anniversary sale is a good one.  My oldest son spent a month out West last summer on his own - New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Utah and then Yellowstone & Glacier.  Had an REI tent and one of the poles bent in high winds.  Tent was still functional, but...  Took it in to ask about replacing the pole and they simply replaced the tent.  And he got the new model since they had just upgraded!

Yep, we got the flyer/coupons in the mail a couple days ago [my husband has been a member since college, way back when...]. We don't shop there often, but we did really enjoy a visit to the big store in Seattle a couple years ago 🙂

Ah, memories!

 

I remember the small crowd that used to camp out in front of the Seattle (then the only) store the night before the sale "back in the day".

Some of the "best stuff" (technical term!) would sell out fast.

🙂

 

But the store and customer service, in several of their stores nowadays, is STILL excellent, and that cannot be said about too many other companies...
