Although Black Friday madness has officially started, there's only one major sale I'm obsessed with right now: REI's holiday sale. Every winter, REI slashes the prices on its bestselling winter apparel, and this year is no different.

I've found discounts on brands like Patagonia, Arc'teryx, Columbia — on winter clothes that you need at this time of year. No swim shorts you can't wear until next summer — this is all down-filled insulated jackets, thermal mid-layers, and boots.

Some of my favorite deals include the Patagonia Re-Tool Hybrid Jacket for just $179, down from $299, and the new-and-improved Merrell Moab 3 hiking boots for just $123.
