It’s that time again…I looked around on the site and didn’t see anything spectacular, but you never know. I did see some women’s windshirts and stuff on the outlet site that were killer deals, but not much other than that.
Aug 26, 2006 at 4:13 am #1361711I love REI but the last time I bought something on sale I found out after I received it that a new model came out which was so much better and worth the extra cash. Silly me. Never have used to one I bought either !!!!
Aug 27, 2006 at 1:07 am #1361745The REI Roadster UL solo tent is $45.
Aug 27, 2006 at 6:41 am #1361762If you go to the outlet side of REI, the footprint is about $5– I got one for a ground sheet. The tent is 32″x82″ so the footprint should be close to that size. I haven’t recived this one yet so I don’t have a weight. I made a similar purchase last year from Campmor and ended up with a tough 6oz. footprint. $5 isn’t bad for a nice peice of coated nylon with finished edges.
Lopping off the extra straps and hardware can take a couple ounces off. I left enough strap on the corners to make a loop for staking or hanging.
