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 Metolius FS Mini Biner Wiregate Carabiner:

I never liked using accessory "non load bearing" carabiners for my keys, water bottle, chalk bag, etc. as I knew I wouldn't want to rely on them in an emergency for bail outs, or anything of the sort. The Metolious FS Mini is the perfect answer to that problem. its full strength ratings & small compact size make it the perfect biner to use for any accessory. i replaced all my cheap keychain carabiners for these, and I find myself suggesting them to anyone I climb with who still uses the "non load bearing" biners for their keys or accessories. the gate opening is a tad small, but it still functions very very well for its size.

Comments about Metolius FS Mini Biner Wiregate Carabiner:

I use these to make extendable slings. They are a compact size and rope clipping is easy if you have good technique. A little expensive but you get what you pay for. I am planning to buy more for my trad rack.

Accessory Caribineer

Comments about Metolius FS Mini Biner Wiregate Carabiner:

First off Kudos to Metolius for putting out a full strength caribineer in a mini size. I don't like to use "accessory" biners from [...]when I'm out climbing. Unfortunately, that means that I usually have a couple of full size caribineers hanging on my harness, water bottle, chalk bag etc. which is fine, but they do add up.Having a couple of these to hold my water, gloves etc. is nice. Now I know that if I have to use my last caribineer, it's not going to be one of those "NOT FOR CLIMBING" jobs that usually seem to end up on my rack no matter how hard I try! The bad is that the size is very small - the gate is big enough to get the rope in, but it's a tight fit. These aren't much good for actual climbing, but it's nice to know if I had to clip them into an anchor, then they are going to do the job.
