Best camping deal

Why we like it

A good quality sleeping bag that will keep you comfortably warm even in low temperatures can be pretty expensive. That's why REI's Labor Day sale is a great time to buy. Normally almost $400, the REI Co-op Magma 30 Sleeping Bag is on sale this weekend for $265.29, making the investment much more tolerable. Weighing under 2 pounds and designed to fit inside a small stuff sack, this is the ultimate sleeping back for backpacking trips where every square inch saved in your pack counts.
