Retailer’s annual promotion offers member-exclusive savings ahead of Memorial Day

REI has launched its annual Anniversary Sale, a promotion the retailer describes as its largest of the year. The event runs through May 25, 2026, offering discounts on a broad range of outdoor equipment. According to a report by The Verge, the sale includes reduced prices on items such as Garmin watches, solar-powered lanterns, stoves, and water filters.

The promotion coincides with the period leading up to Memorial Day. REI members, who can purchase a lifetime membership for $30, are eligible for an additional 20 percent off one full-price item or one REI Outlet item. This extra discount is applied using the code ANNIV26 during the checkout process.

Featured products in the sale include the Garmin Fenix 8 multisport watch, which The Verge notes features dual-frequency GPS and on-device voice assistants. Other highlighted items include the Amazfit Active 2 smartwatch, the Mini 3 Plus satellite communicator, and the JBL Charge 6 portable speaker. The list also covers cooking and shelter essentials, such as the JetBoil MiniMo stove, Coleman two-burner stove, Kelty Low Loveseat, and MegaMat Duo sleeping pad.

Pricing and availability were updated on May 20, 2026, to reflect current stock levels. The update added deals for Osprey’s Atmos AG 65 Pack and the Helinox Chair Zero LT to the existing selection. The Verge report also noted that some discounted items, including specific Garmin watches and water filters, are available at other retailers such as Amazon.

The retailer’s affiliate links indicate that Vox Media may earn a commission on purchases made through its platform. The sale period concludes on May 25, providing a final window for consumers to secure discounts on the listed outdoor gear before the Memorial Day weekend.
