My own REI card ~ outdoors by a tree, of course...<\/p><\/div>\n

If you are a card carrying REI member (like I am) and if you get the REI notifications via email (like I do) then you probably already know about the upcoming REI Labor Day Sale<\/strong> and the End of Season Clearance<\/strong> that they have going on right now. If you are not a member or if you just missed or ignored the email, here is your notification and\/or reminder.<\/p>\n

Although the Labor Day Sale does not officially start until tomorrow (it runs from 8\/24-9\/3). I believe that they have already started the End of Season Clearance because they have dropped the prices on many of their bikes (and other cycling accessories) significantly.<\/p>\n

I have to go out to the REI site all the time to check the prices that I have posted for their bikes on this website and I can tell you that when I did my latest price checks I found that many of the quality bikes that REI carries are marked down from $100 to $300<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

REI is one of the companies that actually drop their prices significantly when they have sales (a few times a year) and that is usually the best time to shop there.\u00a0 So when you are ready for a new bike or need some new cycling gear (or any of the outdoor stuff that they carry) this is the time to do your REI shopping.<\/p>\n

As for the Bikes that I found on sale ($100 to $300 drop in prices<\/em>) there were Cannondale, Scott, GT, Raleigh<\/strong> and the REI brand Novara<\/strong> (which are actually pretty nice bikes). I know that these bikes were on sale but these are just the brands that I have reviewed on this website. There may be other popular bike brands on sale also.<\/p>\n

I have included the sale information, links to the bikes that I know have significant price decreases and links to the other cycling products on sale on our August Deals and Discounts page here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On top of the current deals that REI has going on, if you are an REI member (which is a good deal) then you also get an annual dividend (usually 10% of your REI purchases throughout the year) in March. What can I say? I’m a big REI fan (and now is a good time to be one).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
