I was hoping to purchase the Montbell Alpine Light Down Parka ASAP but prices are still high as of today:

Size Medium Olive Green
$184.95 campsaver
$194.95 prolitegear
$194.95 e-omc
$195 backcountrygear
$195 ems

Should I hold-off in hopes of an upcoming sale (Black Friday, after-Christmas, etc.)?

Thanks =)

Eric, thanks for the super fast reply. Close call at SummitHut - no size medium, though :(

Any idea when the next Montbell sale will be? I wish I could predict these things :P I'll sign-up for the gear alerts in the meantime.

Backcountry.com is having a Thanksgiving sale. The MontBell Alpine Light Down Parka is on sale for $165.71 (15% Off).

Anyone have a coupon they would like to share to help reduce that price even more? Thanks :)

I guess it has to be Olive Green ?

My guess is that you will find something cheaper on Black Friday but if it can only be Olive Green and only in a medium . . .

If you could live with it in Navy you could get a pretty smokin deal going through a cash back site like mrrebates and then getting Moosejaw to do a price match. That would give you the jacket for the $165 PLUS 9% cash back PLUS Moosejaw points (1/2 the normal amount for the item + 1000 for the price match) PLUS the special gift (worth $100) promotion that they currently have on for spending over a hundred dollars . . .

Dear Nicholas,

EMS is running Friends and Family 25% off sale until 11/22. I have seen people mention it in store without having the print out of the email, and they had still received the discount. If you'd like, I can forward you the email I received.
