It's the most glorious time of the year for folks like me who love the great outdoors. With the holidays just around the corner, my favorite outerwear retailer, REI, has an enormous amount of high-tech gear on sale at massively discounted prices.
And you don't need to break the bank to get in on the Black Friday savings. For example, these outrageously warm and comfortable Smartwool socks are just $7, marked down from $27. Of course, plenty of jackets are discounted, too, like this sleek Columbia Cruiser Valley Soft-Shell for only $48, reduced from $99.
