REI’s annual gear sale brings you 30 percent off top outdoor brands

Starting today and running until Monday, November 19, REI Co-op is hosting its annual Gear Up Get Out sale. Like past sales REI has held at key times of the year such as Labor Day, the outdoor co-op is offering incredible deals on outdoor brands like Patagonia, Dakine, Arc’teryx and Columbia.

Each day, you can receive up to 30 percent off exclusive items, with other doorbuster deals happening throughout the sale. For example, a set of peak deals were added today, November 9, all of which are 50 percent off the regular price. Another set of peak deals will be added on Monday, November 12. Inventory on these is limited, though, so you’ll need to act fast if you want to snag the best gear. REI members can also save 20 percent on one full-price item and an extra 20 percent off one REI Outlet item; just use coupon code GEARUP2018 at checkout.

But one of the coolest offerings doesn’t have to do with gear at all. In addition to selling sporting goods, clothing, and outdoor equipment, REI is known for offering services such as outdoor-oriented vacations and courses. And its annual sale includes an offer on an upcoming hiking trip on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage in Spain. This historic trail takes hikers on a nine-day journey to the holy city of Santiago de Compostela, touring ancient Roman ruins and famous sites like San Salvador Cathedral along the way. If you book anytime during the sale, you’ll save $700 on any 2019 trip.

All peak deals available as of November 9 come from REI itself, with savings up to $110 off regular prices. I mean, it makes sense that the brand hosting the sale would be able to discount its own products so heavily. From hoodies to hammocks, here are the Peak Deals you can snap up starting today on the site:

Considering how expensive its jackets and backpacks usually are, seeing them on sale is a rare treat. Plus, this is the perfect time to invest in a high quality insulated jacket for the winter (something the brand is known for). Take a look at a few of their best offerings below:

Of course REI would be offering more deals during their annual sale. With so many items available, we felt we had to include a second section with items that aren’t quite 50 percent off but worth a look nonetheless. Here are a few more select sale items available on the site over the next couple weeks:

Best camera deals: Save on DSLR, action cameras, point-and-shoot
Best DSLR cameras for beginners Canon Rebel T7i

While some of the best camera phones can offer you great picture quality, they don't really compare to a dedicated camera. Not only does the latter have more space for more complex hardware, but they also have the option of interchangeable lenses depending on what you need to do. To that end, we've collected some of our favorite camera deals below, especially since cameras can get quite expensive if you want good quality. Be sure to check out drone deals for aerial photography and GoPro deals for action photography. Also, if you're not quite sure what camera body type you should go for, be sure to check our guide on Mirrorless vs. DSLR to get a better sense of what you need.
Best DSLR camera deals

DSLR cameras are bulkier than mirrorless cameras, but they produce high-quality images that will let you capture the most beautiful moments. You'll be able to see directly through the lens with the mirrored optical viewfinder while composing your shot, and you've got your pick among years' worth of lenses, depending on what kind of pictures you want to take. DSLR camera deals are always in demand because they're expensive though, so hurry if you want to pocket the savings from the bargains we've gathered below.

Best GoPro deals: Save on action cameras and accessories
Prime Day 2022 GoPro deals graphic.

Recording your active lifestyle can be a lot of fun, especially if you do sports semi-professionally, and action cameras are perfect for recording all your achievements to share and compete with others. Luckily, the market has boomed lately, and even the best action cameras are pretty well-priced, especially if you go for a bundle that includes accessories. That said, one of the top brands in this space is GoPro, and it has a lot of great options for you to pick from, which is why we've gone out and collected our favorite GoPro deals for you to peruse. If you're interested in capturing action footage aerially, consider drone deals. If you prefer the standard point-and-click, check out our list of the best camera deals.
Best GoPro camera deals
GoPro HERO9 Black (open box) -- $213, was $250

The GoPro HERO9 Black is a bit of an older GoPro at this point, but that certainly doesn't mean that it's geriatric, and the older age means you can get it for a lot cheaper. It has a large front screen for you to work with, and it can take 27MP stills, although the 5k video recording is a little bit pointless on a model like this. It has a larger battery, which is nice, and if you're okay with going for a refurbished or open-box version, then you can save a little cash.

Drones can be a lot of fun, even if you aren't using one of the best drones on the market. Whether you want one to record memories of your trips and adventures or you want to do it for something a bit more serious like recording a movie, drones are pretty great. There are, of course, many different types and qualities of drones, with DJI sitting at the top, followed by some excellent DJI alternatives. If you're shooting action photos with your drone, make sure to check out GoPro deals and standard camera deals as well.

Radclo Mini Drone -- $33, was $63

The Radclo Mini Drone may be affordable, but you won't think that's it's cheap because it's equipped with a 1080p lens that you can operate through the drone's companion app. You can look through its camera for a real-time panoramic view while you take pictures and videos, and it can fly for up to 22 minutes with its pair of 800 mAh batteries. The drone is easy to operate as it only takes the push of a button to have it take off and land, and once you're done using it, it conveniently folds into a compact carrying case.
