    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 Oakley A-Frame Polarized Ski Goggles:

    I've had good success with Oakley products over the years, but I've been very disappointed with the lenses Oakley puts in their A-Frame goggles as they scratch way too easily, and field maintenance is virtually impossible due to the specific care instructions.

    Oakley says you can only use the included cloth to wipe the lens, but the cloth is hydrophobic, so it won't absorb water. I don't know about you, but snow sometimes melts into water, and I often get water inside my goggles. The included lens cloth is useless.

    Then, when the water dries, it leaves behind water spots that cannot be removed unless you scrub the lens so hard that it scratches.

    I'm trying to decide if I should order my third set of lenses for my A-Frame goggles, or should I bite the bullet and buy an entirely new goggle.

    I'm leaning towards the later option.
