I recently spent a couple hundred dollars on a Down jacket made by REI and a SmartWool Merino base layer. I also saw a SmartWool jacket that really liked (Men's smartloft hybrid jacket) but the price seemed a little high, a little over $200.00. I decided to check SmartWool website and found the same jacket for $126.00. I also received a %20 discount for signing up bringing the jacket to $100 with free shipping. I wanted buy the jacket from REI but I was told they do not match prices. I like the REI store because their staff are friendly and super help but I find it unbelievable that they can justify charging one hundred percent markup compared to the manufacturer.

Laddie is an excellent employee at REI willing to help make a unique shopping experience. He helped my wife and I check out with our pesky visa gift cards. He took time out of his day to ensure we could make our purchase.

Please allow this review to serve as a thank you to Maddie, who was working the register today. I bought several clothing items for my wife last year and the year before, but most of the sizes/styles bombed except for one or two items. With a genuine smile on her face, Maddie helped me scrub my last two to three year purchase history and, through process of elimination of purchases and returns, she helped me determine which style and size was kept so I could make the purchases with confidence of a solid fit. Thank you to her as this was as much appreciated as it was a customer service win.
