Brother, I was like, "Let me see if someone has a video on YT about the REI labor day sale so I can watch it on my second screen while I shop." LOL and here you go. Thanks my man! Subbed!

I picked up the Exped MegaMat Duo 10 sleeping pad for 40% off! I think it will be a worthwhile upgrade over the traditional Intex air mattress I’m used to.

Costco was having the Dometic as low as $400 it was crazy to see at that price! But usually $499 to make room for new inventory

Just got a couple of darn tough with that 25% off! Working on replacing all of my traditional socks a little bit at a time

Have you had any problems with the Ignik? I’ve read tons of people have problems with actually filling them up with propane. I’m definitely interested in buying that instead of those green cans

So how much does Backpacking gear made from “recycled materials” really offset all of the hours or even days of driving we do every time we head for a trailhead? The proverbial drop in the bucket I’m quite sure. “Sustainable” is last on my list when considering gear, but I guess it makes some people feel good!

Vegans don’t wear wool socks? Seriously? 😂

You obviously realize the amount of pollution from your Toyota SUV driving long trips to use this woke, ECO nonsense outweighs the virtue signaling. I'll buy REI if they make great gear better and cheaper than NRS, NEMO and St Agnes. You people are tiring and stressful to be around.
