    REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    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 Standard Blue Foam - Sit Pad:

        This is the best thing I have ever bought for my wife and I, seriously the best. It is super light... makes any wet rocky spot comfy to sit on. Helps a bunch in snow to not freeze. It is easily blown away but when not in use I just put a pack on it. Put it under our hips at night so we dont have to pack as thick of sleeping mats (so it is like it is negative weight!)

        Comments about Standard Blue Foam - Sit Pad:

        Just saw these in REI. I was surprised they actually sell this. Everyone I know just cuts up old foam sleeping pads. But if you don't have an old pad you want to butcher, then yes, this would definitely be worth buying. (It's a little big, so you can cut it even smaller if you want to fit it in your pack flat.) If you're going to be sitting down for a lunch break in the rain or the snow, a bit of foam will make your experience 10 times more pleasant. Your butt will never freeze. It's so small and so light and so worth carrying.

          This is a great little pad to have along on any trip. Best use I can think of is in the back of my duluth packs for padding on my back.

          Comments about Standard Blue Foam - Sit Pad:

          On rough, cold, or wet trails, this handy pad provides a dry, warm seat.
          It's weightless, indestructable, straps anywhere onto your pack, and does not absorb water in a downpour or blizzard.
          For snow sports, it practically disappears amongst other winter gear.
          Sometimes I forget I have it, it's so lightweight. Once in a windstorm as I was kneeling on it to adjust photo gear, it flew away when I stood and I had to go find it wedged in dunes far down the beach.

            An okay idea, but pretty unnecessary most of the time. However, it does work well for putting under the hips if you need extra padding at night.
