TicWatch Pro
This Google OS smart watch is certainly versatile: available in black or platinum with a leather strap, there are more than 1,000 watch faces to select from here. The Pro offers up to 30 days of battery life, Google Assistant, NFC payments via Google Pay and all the health/fitness tracking you’d ever need. Currently $50 off (be sure to clip the coupon).

REI
Clearance time: the outdoor retailer is taking up to 50% off selected items, while their Outlet store (which features some great stuff for spring and summer) is offering 50% off or more.  

Anker Powerhouse
Now that you’ve geared up (thanks, REI and, see below, Eddie Bauer!), you’ll want a portable generator for when rough weather returns … or for your elevated camping experiences come summer. This 400Wh power supplier can charge all your phone up to 40 times or your laptop up to 15, and also handles larger appliances like mini fridges and lamps. Currently 30% off at just $350.

Sales of note:

  • Brooks Brothers: A winter sale, where all five of these sport coats are $300+ off
  • Eddie Bauer: Use the code FEB60 to take an extra 60% off clearance items (2/11 update: looks like the code no longer works but you can grab items “up to 60% off” in the sale, no code needed).
