I know boxing day isn't the big sale day in the US like it is here in Canada and it's odd that I found all my bargains on the REI site today but I thought I'd share while they still had some stock. They're blowing out a ton of products with their 'end of year' sale.
  • REI Minimalist Bivy (Long): $74.99 - I've had my eye on one of these for a while...at this price I was powerless. The regular and the long are both on sale (regular is $64.99). I picked up the long so I have some extra foot room for gear if needed.

  • Gerber Diesel Multipliers: $39.93 - The big brother to my aging 600 multipliers but the same style. I'll finally be able to retire the old pair to the 'car kit'. The saw will be nice too.

  • Mountain Hardwear Scrambler Pack: %34.83 - An ultralight pack (~12oz.) that can be compressed into itself and stashed in my big pack for use as a daypack or large stuffsack. As added bonuses it's made from silnylon, water resistant, and bright yellow (perfect for Search and Rescue)

I also picked up the CRKT Sting by A.G. Russel. It wasn't on sale I just always wanted one and they're upwards of $50 locally.

$30 shipping to Canada via the post office...pretty good in my books.

Before you and Ironraven mentioned it, I had never before heard of "Boxing Day". Blissful ignorance I 'spose.

We should have an "Ultimate Fighting Day" in the U.S.
