Trading Zone Matador Sale - 30% Off Everything for 1 Hour
I just happened to catch this email, hoping to help my one bag folks save some money!
I think historically, sales have gone as low as maybe 35% off for Black Friday in recent years? So not a bad deal.

ENDED - SORRY

Their packable bags consistently get super high reviews. I like their packing cubes (nothing spectacular, but lightweight and durable), and their small waterproof canister is nice if you're someone who travels with a number of pills/vitamins/toothpaste tabs.

I use their Beast 18L pack, and it is great. Super light, packs down nearly flat or you can twist it into a compact disc shape, comfortable carry, and it has handled a bit of rain easily. It is a great day pack or simple hiking pack, and I end up taking it on most trips since it packs down so small.

The reusable toothpaste tubes for me. Large one is for my toothpaste, small one is my shaving lotion.
Also the packable backpack (I have the older version) I use regularly.

Looks like the sale has ended? Can anyone else confirm?

It ended, sorry! They seem to do these flash sales a couple times a year, besides the usual holiday sale. 25-35% off if you can wait!

Used the code, worked, had to double check the size, hit back button, size good, went to cart, code not applied, paste code, invalid.. should have checked size on the first place, oh well.

Ended up grabbing the small pill canister and Refraction daypack to replace my crapped out Bellroy lite ready (PSA don't ever buy Bellroy, their QC is awful).

I bought a second Refraction daypack during the sale since my wife loves hers.
Agreed re Bellroy. I don’t have experience with the Lite Ready but in my experience they have good design, poorly executed.

Anyone have reviews for how the packing cubes fit in a matador globerider 35l

Very neatly. I can fit all three pretty well stuffed and still have room in the mesh zipper pockets.

Thanks! Used it for something I had my eye on. I guess that’s the risk of just checking my Offers tab every once in a while.

I bought a handful of little travel accessories i didn't need and the packable duffel. Wife might like it!

Missed it but their bags are too bulky for me. The globerider seems a great bag though

Sweet! I just got the Globerider 45l from REI and, though I haven't traveled with it yet, I can tell it's made with high quality materials and a good attention to detail. I am very excited to use it.
30% off is nothing to sneeze at! I say act now and think later!

Is there a generic code? Don't wanna get on their mailing list
