With warm, sunny days filling the forecast, many of us are digging through long-neglected bins of outdoor gear … to discover the hole-ridden hiking socks, worn out boots and broken camp chairs we vowed to replace over the winter and then totally forgot. You’re just in time: REI Co-op is holding its annual anniversary sale.

Running from 15 May to 25 May, the outdoor retailer’s biggest sales event of the year includes generous 25% discounts on more than 6,000 products, many from elite brands that seldom go on sale. REI members also get a 20% coupon applicable to any full-price item, which can save hundreds of dollars applied to big-ticket purchases such as bikes and kayaks.
