REI is a place of GOOD gear. They sell things that work. I have walked into that store many times,…read morethe scent of new fabric and rubber sharp in the air, and found what I needed to survive. The boots will take you through rain and mud and snow. They're made to take you somewhere. Somewhere rough. Somewhere real. The tents hold up in wind, but you will hear the wind whistle through the seams if the storm is strong enough, because Mother Nature will never bow to man's interventions. You pay a price for that. The press sings songs about REI like it's the holy land for outdoor men and women, and maybe that's true in parts. But you don't go there for ceremony, you go for the tools. They make good tools. You don't want to trust your life to something flimsy when you are out there, far from the roads and the towns, when your survival depends on gear. REI has it, in its clean rows, with its well-meaning salespeople, and its prices that sting a little but still make sense. It is the day-to-day, too. The jacket for the morning walk. The pack for the hike with your daughter. The water bottle that won't quit, no matter how many miles you pour through it. It holds up for the small things and the big. It holds up for life. It isn't perfect, but neither are you. Still, you trust it.

I took my 30-year-old Giant ATX 760, an entry-level hardtail mountain bike, to REI at the Olympia…read moreCapital Mall and it needed a lot of work. Considering that I hadn't had the bike serviced in 12 years, and MANY dried up parts had to be replaced, the service wasn't terribly expensive, as REI gave me discounts. I paid $500 for that bike in 1995, which amounts to about $1,100 today, and the service cost about a third of that $1,100, reasonably low-ish also because I'm a member. Now I'll transport that bike on our new Kuat Sherpa 2.0 bike carrier, also purchased earlier at this store. I'm a happy camper.

I can't lie, I love Cabela's. I go there for 90% of my clothing.

The parking lots are way bigger than they will ever need, and they are patriotic with flags adorning their property for Memorial Day and The 4th. Cabela's has a great selection for folks who love outdoor activities. Great place for selecting gifts for family and friends. I highly recommend this place for almost everything they sell!

The ladies who have helped us in shoes have been so kind and helpful. We also had a great experience with the Santa's Village, there wasn't a line and we had an appointment.

Do yourselves a favor and RSVP…read morefor it online because if you want to do a walk in, you may not get in since there will be a lot of people in line. I've done it twice and even though I was first in line the last time, it took 20 mins for me to get through and it just got slower for everyone behind. What they'll do is they'll send you a text to let you know when to get in line, so feel free to wait in your car until you get that text. It costs about $150 for the vaccinationsor each dog and even though that sounds like a lot, I priced it out with a vet and it was going to be $300 to $500, so this is really a bargain. The staff is nice and very gentle with the dogs.

From the moment we stepped inside, we were warmly welcomed with genuine smiles and greetings. Every person we encountered seemed to spred a sense of joy and happiness. When we were searching for free weights, a helpful staff member guided us to the right section. Another young man proactively offered his assistance, going above and beyond to find the perfect weights and even a weight stand. This store's commitment to outstanding customer service and friendliness is truly inspiring. Kudos to the best customer service down to the cashier that rang us up! The store is so well organized, clean and has mall parking! My favorite sporting goods store!

Tim treated me with respect and courtesy. If you have any questions or issues go to him. He works right there at their golfing section. Believe me, you won't regret it. The value of the shirt I got is perfect.

However, have you ever been in this place? I thought it was a shop just for farmers who need farming equiment, but this place is great. It's kinda like a combination of an Ace Hardware and a Cabelas. They have stuff for your DIY projects so I picked up a part to fix my shower diverter in my tub, but they also have clothing, toys, hunting and fishing equipment, with nice wide, clean aisles. Aesthetically, they are awesome. They had one section with different colors of lawn sprinklers and it was stunning. This place does not get enough love, but it will from me because this place is so cool. Try it out!
