The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Banana Boat Sunblock SPF 50 - 3 fl. oz.:

As well as tramping, hiking, hunting and general outdoor activities, I sail most summer weekends in New Zealand. Sailing has to be the ultimate test of a sunblock as you get hammered by the sun, both from the sky and reflected off the water while continual dousing from sea spray tests its waterproofing. Banana Boat Sunblock reigns supreme in these conditions; it never fails. And, unlike other products, a little goes a very long way. We have dozens of products available on the New Zealand market but I prefer to pay a premium to get this one shipped out from the US.

Comments about Banana Boat Sunblock SPF 50 - 3 fl. oz.:

I used this useless for floating down the salt river in Arizona. My wife got third degree burns on her legs. she applied it before and during the river trip at the lest 4 times. I to got blisters on my legs. Works good for the face and shorter exposer to the sun but don't get wet or its gone. Use only bullfrog products is what the doctor told my wife. I used the bullfrog this weekend and i can attest to that, it works but very heavy. I want a lighter product that is not greasy and WORKS!!!

Comments about Banana Boat Sunblock SPF 50 - 3 fl. oz.:

Sunscreen is extremely important to me down here in Tucson, AZ... I've tried a few different brands and have had the best luck with this stuff.

Two main reasons I like it:

Goes on easy, sort of like hand lotion or something. It's easy to spread around, and then it just kinda soaks in leaving you feeling a little moist to the touch.

Sweatproof... very, very sweatproof. I am a big guy a sweat A LOT (buckets of sweat, stupid stupid amounts of sweat). Under the worst conditions, it will form a kind of film on the skin but it doesn't wash away (sort or hard to describe - bottom line is, you can sweat a lot without loosing effectiveness).

Usually lasts a few hours.

Was a extremely useful product that worked well as a sunscreen and lotion, didn't irritate wasn't greasy. Worked well during kayaking and mountaineering with snow and ice glare.
