Skiing and snowboarding are expensive sports, but you can put a dent in the price of a new pair of skis or a snowboard at REI right now. Its Ready, Set Snow sale covers not only skis and snowboards but all sorts of winter sports gear. The sale ends on Monday, Oct. 28. And since the company makes a point of closing its stores on Thanksgiving and Black Friday, this current sale is your best alternative to get REI deals in the meantime.
