    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 CamelBak Podium Big Chill Bottle - 25 fl. oz.:

      We bought three for a road trip (car camping) and they were great for my boys as they are spill proof. Which means my car interior isn't at risk. They also keep liquid cold and have a great ergonomic feel. The one con is that sometimes it will whistle (as it equalizes?) forcing you to close the valve entirely. Otherwise fantastic.

        Bottle does just as advertised, keeps liquids either warm or cold to your desire. Very easy to drink from and no liquid gets out unless you want it to. Great lock on top of bottle to lock the liquid in. I would recommend to anybody.

        Comments about CamelBak Podium Big Chill Bottle - 25 fl. oz.:

        I used this bottle on a 300 mile ride in Utah during the summer. And then started using it while I was mountain biking. It's just too hot to wear a hydration pack.

        It is great at keeping your drink cool. I've been out riding at the hottest point of the day and there was still ice in the bottle after 1 hr.

        The problem is that I use a side entry water bottle cage and with the twist that Camelbak puts at the indention, the bottle won't sit straight in the cage. At first I thought my cage was bent since it was sticking out to the side so much. But it was the bottle not sitting straight in the cage.

        If you run a standard water bottle cage this bottle will work great.

          Comments about CamelBak Podium Big Chill Bottle - 25 fl. oz.:

          This is a fairly decent bottle. Doesn't really keep water cold longer than any other insulated bottle, so it's nothing super fancy. It is better than a plain ozarka, or whatever brand bottle though. I just put some ice in the bottle with it and it stays cool for the most part of my ride, usually being around 1-2 hours or so. I will say I do live in Texas, so the heat is harsh! I do really like the jetvalve. It saves mess and is super fast and easy. It also has a nice locking feature. Overall... it's still a water bottle, not something I tend to get too excited over. It is a nice water bottle for riding and various other activities, keeps liquid cool for at least a few hours, easy to use, mess free, and easy to squeeze. If you got a [$] burning a hole in your pocket and don't have a decent water bottle for your bike rides, or don't feel like using a camel back for your shorter rides (like me) then pick one up.

            Comments about CamelBak Podium Big Chill Bottle - 25 fl. oz.:

            This bottle is a great size for going just a bit longer on your ride. The insulation keeps your liquid cool for about 2 hours, even longer if you throw in some ice or freeze it the night before like I do. The locking nozzle is a great feature, as well as the jetstream style dispensing. You don't have to interrupt your breathing to get hydrated.
