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 Badger Anti-Bug Balm:

I have had good experiences with various Badger products, so spending a year in the countryside of Africa, with Maleria a real concern, I tried this anti-bug balm. I can't buy enough! The tin is small enough to fit in a pant pocket, for quick access, and the smell is delightful. I rub it on the pulse points before going out, and I come home bite free, unlike my collegues. I even will rub some under my nose when I am in a congested area with unwashed bodies, ah the smell of citronella vice... Seriously, if you're worried about bugs or just smelly people- BUY SOME!

Comments about Badger Anti-Bug Balm:

This product is excellent! It is ONLY greasy when you apply too much. My wife put too much on and it made her arm shine. It kept the bugs away all night even when we were outside with our headlamps on! Amazing stuff. I bought two. They are pretty compact too, so you can slip them in wherever you like.

Comments about Badger Anti-Bug Balm:

I don't want to you aggressive stuff like DEET in places where bugs don't transmit dangerous diseases. Because what's bad for little bugs, is also bad for big bugs! Have you ever gotten a drop of DEET on your plastic sunglasses? Nasty stuff. And what happens to the bugs in the water when you jump into an pristine alpine lake after a day of hiking and dousing yourself in DEET? Ever thought about that?

Anyway, this stuff really worked for the annoying mosquito's in Yosemite (and there were plenty!). Just apply liberally and don't miss a spot, 'cause the mosquito's will find that missed spot for sure.
