There's nothing better than getting some cool new outdoor gear when the seasons change, and thankfully, REI has plenty of great deals to shop right now. The beloved outdoor retailer is constantly discounting essential gear like backpacks and multi-season tents, but if you need a cozy new sleeping bag that'll keep you warm when the temperatures drop, REI is here for you, too: Recently, one of Nemo's top-rated bags got an incredible $150 off.
Nemo’s Jazz 30 Sleeping Bag is on sale at REI for $150—50% off the regular price of $300. Satisfied campers call it “silky soft” and say it’s “very roomy.” It comes in one color and one size, but one shopper who’s 6’3” and weighs 205 pounds said the sleeping bag was “too big” even for his height.

Sleeping bags are a must-have outdoor essential when you’re heading out for a night or two in the great outdoors, but some backpacking mummy bags can be restrictive. This Nemo bag is rectangular, which makes it a lot more comfortable. It may look simple, but the brand has added a few quirks and features to the recycled synthetic Jazz that make it stand out. Extra touches include a built-in sheet that you can remove and wash, a lightweight insulated pad cover to give you a little extra cushioning and keep your sleeping pad in place all night, dual zipper pulls on each side, and a soft draft collar to help regulate temperatures. The overall design features a slight taper at both the head and foot of the bag to keep weight and bulk down while allowing for maximum width and warmth.
Happy customers rave about how spacious and comfortable the bag is, with one customer commenting that it has “plenty of space and feels like home.” A dog lover also noted that the bag is big enough to sleep a large pet: “My 100-pound dog and I fit comfortably in it.”

Others praised its size and warmth, but noted that it's not for backpacking: “It's pretty big, but perfect for car camping.” And this satisfied car camper gave it full marks, saying it's a “10 out of 10 for car camping.”
REI is always the best place to shop for deals on quality outdoor gear, and this sleeping bag is a great deal for the car camping champion. And Nemo has one of the best deals we've seen on high-quality outdoor gear, with an impressive $150 off. Don't get caught out just yet; as more people learn about REI's great camping deals ahead of the upcoming season, they're sure to grab them.
