New REI Store Coming
I just got an email from REI (the big outdoors gear chain/co-op), and apparently they're opening a second store in Houston (in the Willowbrook area).
There are more details in this press release.
I honestly don't see the need for a second store in Houston, but surely REI has done their homework on this.
Frankly, I try never to shop at the current store, because it seems like they never have proper inventory of common items that I need.
Maybe a second store will encourage them to improve their practices. Or maybe they both will suck and I'll continue either to order mostly online from CampMor or shop locally at Whole Earth.
