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 Giro Me2 Bike Helmet - Infant/Toddlers':

I bought this for my daughter when she was about 6 months old. I had to replace it once when she was about 18 months because I had left it in her trailer in the sun and it melted (which I learned often happens when left in cars in Pheonix in the summer). Otherwise I have had no issues with it.

It fits great for any kid from age 6-9 months to about 3 years. So far I have used it for both my son and daughter. Thats about 4 years of use so far. It has great coverage from the forehead to the back of the head without being bulky. Its a great fit, so it doesnt slide backwards like all the helmets I had as a kid did, and cheaper helmets still do. Both my kids liked to wear it, particularly my son who will put it on and run around the house in it. My son also likes to rip the plastic inner headband off (the part that hugs the head and the key to it's great fit) so the soft band around it fell off and I had to handstitch it back on, and I've had to buy new velcro to hold it in place, but that's more an issue with a destructive tike than an issue with the quality of the helmet.

I am soon to have baby #3 and I'm torn between buying another, as this one is beinging to show its wear, or just using the one I've got. If I do get another helmet it will be another of the same.

Comments about Giro Me2 Bike Helmet - Infant/Toddlers':

I first bought a Schwinn helmet for my baby at Target, which I was able to adjust snugly, but the back was pointed, which made it difficult for my baby's head to lay back in her bike seat, which in turn would cause the straps to practically choke her. I decided I needed to look elsewhere.

I read some reviews of the Me2 helmet on other websites, and decided to try it out. When I got home, I adjusted it to fit her in minutes and it fit very securely and snugly (she is 9 months with a 45cm head circumference), and has a wonderful, adjustable knob to tighten it around the bottom of her skull, similar to my bike helmet. Another huge plus is the flat back so the baby can wear it in a high-back bike seat or trailer. It also has a brim in front which adds protection to her forehead

It is a little pricey, but definitely worth it for your child's safety. For an infant around 9 months who is just starting to wear a helmet, this is the place to start. I'm not sure how long she'll be able to wear it, but I'm excited about our many bike rides together.
