I've always respected the REI brand - they have a great selection of products, and seem to comprehend the concept of social responsibility.
Not sure how, but I ended up on the REI catalog mailing list. Perhaps because I'm a member of the Appalachian Mountain Club? Who knows. Anyway, I do not like catalog mailings.
Thankfully, REI makes it easy to discontinue their catalog mailings by visiting this page:
Unsubscribing from REI Catalog Mailings
I had this to say in the comments section:
"Thanks for making it easy to unsubscribe. In my humble opinion, catalogs are a waste of paper."
