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 Pepper's Tadly Polarized Sunglasses:

Bought these in June for everyday wear. Within first month the first nose grip fell off. The next week, the frame cracked all the way through while I was removing them from my face, underneath the remaining nose grip. Within 5 weeks, the final nose grip fell off and the frames fell apart. They were useless and are now in the garbage.

Comments about Pepper's Tadly Polarized Sunglasses:

This is the 2nd pair of Pepper's I got because the first pair scratched within 2 days of using them because the lenses are made of shoddy plastic. Within a week, this pair also scratched so it's going back to REI this weekend. When one places the pair on the counter, the shape and weight of the lens relative to the frame causes this pair to wobble, falling over onto the lens itself, scratching exactly in the place through which one's eye wants to see. Needless to say, when this happens, one is mildly and constantly furious because plastic scratches cannot be buffed out; the pair is perma-ruined.See, I'm the type who loses expensive sunglasses, so I don't buy them anymore otherwise I'd have gotten glass. Instead I opt to buy several pair at once at random gas station on the way to the mountains, expecting them to scratch within maybe 3 months, fall apart at the nose or ear, or get lost. I don't mistreat sunglasses either, they are simply shoddily constructed (small aluminum screws/hinges, bad adhesives, cheap plastic) [*] mention this to qualify myself as a long-time expert on inexpensive [*] sunglasses.And let me tell you, Pepper's sunglasses are different: they are actually *worse*, more shoddily made than any random [*] ones I've owned. Peppers scratch almost on purpose. [...] They are the sunbeam, black and decker of sunglasses- a throwaway garbage brand. I find it highly unfortunate that sunglass manufacturers seem to be bifurcated into two categories only: 'plastic'/inexpensive, and 'glass'/outrageously-expensive...there is no middle ground it seems. These turkeys could just as easily recycle coke bottles into cheap glass lenses and sell them for slightly more than plastic, rather than marking them up 20000%, and the lenses wouldn't scratch but the frame would likely still fall apart, which is ok because the end-user would get to utilize them fully for their entire lifecycle.[...] returning these a second time and perma-banning Pepper's from my life and wallet.Also they are mildly unstylish and you'll look like an impoverished fool like myself for wearing them. Which is somewhat expected from inexpensive sunglasses.
