Everyone else is lying to you, pulling the wool over your eyes. REI doesn't do a Black Friday sale. At least not in name. There's a Winter Sale this week, lasting until next November, 25, and there'll be some sort of small sale leading up to Thanksgiving.

The outdoor retailer has major deals on winter essentials that will be gone by the time Black Friday rolls around.

If you love the great outdoors or are gift-shopping for the outdoorsmen in your life, REI is a one-stop shop for all the best brands. REI notoriously forgoes a Black Friday event, presenting the #OptOutside campaign instead.

Don’t miss your chance to save big on your favorite brands, including Patagonia, Arc’teryx, and The North Face.

As we plan our favorite Thanksgiving meals, the gift-giving holiday season is just around the corner. Hoosiers can shop these early Cyber Monday sales.

It’s time to warm up your “add to cart” fingers. Black Friday sales are here early, and they’re massive. Take one look at JCPenney’s deals, and you can knock out nearly everyone on your holiday shopping list without blowing your budget.
