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 Old Town Vapor 10XT Kayak:

Recently got back to paddling, several decades older and a lot heavier. Grew up in a big tandem kitbuilt with long heavy paddles. First time out in the Vapor, it felt like paddling a dishpan--slow, goosey in crosswinds, and just very very light. After some more practice with it I'm respecting it a lot more. It took a beating on some small rapids with grace and was nice enough not to dump me out even when I deserved it. It's stable and tracks fairly well for a little boat but turns well when it has to. Lots of room in it, more bungees than I know what to do with, hubby is jealous of the covered hatch. It's light enough that I can carry and load it myself, though not by much. The seat isn't it's best feature--it feels good when adjusted but slips into a recline pretty quickly every time. I find it a bit hard to get in and out of, but that's probably my size and conditioning more than the boat. And I do think it's on the slow side. But for a versatile reentry boat I can grow with and don't have to worry about banging into rocks, it's doing fine.
