What: REI Garage Sale (with optional parking lot camp out)
Where: The REI on Priest and Southern
When and where to meet: Just show up at REI anytime before the sale starts at 10:00am -- several of us will be camping out overnight, but there's no set arrival time.
Cost of trip: Well, that depends on your budget for fabulous deals. You don't have to spend any money, but I find myself practically throwing cash at the cashiers because the deals are so fantastic.
Trip leader / Contact info: Jackie Brady Jacqueline.Brady@gmail.com 480.277.7945
What to bring: Loads of cash for gear. If you're camping out, bring a sleeping pad, a sleeping bag, some snacks and drinks, and possibly a tent or hammock.
Other info: If you've never been to an REI garage sale, you're missing out -- esp. if you need outdoorsy gear. The sale prices on items are so amazing that many people camp out overnight, and hundreds show up by the time the sale actually starts. For instance, I purchased a women's 15+ down sleeping bag for about $40, although it was originally priced at about $170!!! If you've been needing a backpack, shoes, or practically anything else you'd use on an AOC trip, I suggest you check this out!
