Perks and Rec: REI's Labor Day sale is here

We're kicking off the week at REI, where Labor Day deals are already running wild. Let's get into some of the best deals we've found there. 

• Apparel is up to half off, so take a peek at your cold-weather wardrobe and see what you're lacking. A down jacket? Hiking boots? Super-soft everyday pants? If you want it, it's probably on sale. 
• Let's check out your gear. There are plenty of camping essentials on sale, like this six-person tent marked down to $150. If you're more of a climber or cycler, don’t feel left out—there are plenty of deals for you, too. 
• REI Co-Op members get special savings during this sale. If that's you, use the code YETI2023 to get 20% off one full-price Yeti product. Plus, you can save an extra 20% on one REI Outlet item with the code LABORDAY23. 

You can find me in the Alder and Patagonia racks for the foreseeable future. Happy trails, folks.
