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.

Comments about Sea to Summit Big River Dry Bag - 20 Liters:

I bought this bag for use as a bear bag. I wanted something waterproof that could withstand hanging in a tree in bad weather, as well as keep the smells of food inside so as to not attract bears.
Recently took this bag on a extended trip into the mountains, and camped out in some really bad weather. This bag performed GREAT. Despite hanging from a tree during several thunderstorms, our food stayed nice and dry! It's a little heavy compared to other dry bags, so a backpacker who is ultra-weight conscious may not be impressed. But in my opinion, if you're food is hanging from a tree out in the elements, a little weight is a fair trade-off for a durable and quality bag.

Comments about Sea to Summit Big River Dry Bag - 20 Liters:

I use the StS lightweight dry sacks as pack liners and have been very happy with them. I got the Big River to use as a food bag because i wanted a tougher sack that could handle being blown around with branches, but keep my food dry and not attract animals. It's great for that.

Since then, i have used it for a bunch of other things, and it seems like it's always ready for something new. The lash points on the side and the robust closure with D-rings means you can tie this thing on just about anywhere. Most recently, i used it on a bike-packing trip, with it tied (very tightly) behind my saddle. It dealt with rain and 2-inch mud, and even had a few encounters with my rear wheel, but came out looking new! I'm pretty much convinced it can do anything now.

Only one thing could make it better - a handle or loop on the very bottom. I can understand why that was not done, and there are certainly work-arounds, but it would still be pretty nice.

Comments about Sea to Summit Big River Dry Bag - 20 Liters:

I use this for canoe trips to Quetico and the BWCA.
I easily fit all the clothes I need for a two week trip in this. Very durable and water proof. (I haven't had it SUBMERGED, but have had no problems with downpours.)
