Got the email informing me of the amount of the dividend today. Always a fun time...

Yep, got my dividend yesterday. Since I already have my gear pretty well dialed in, I'll probably use my dividend to buy a canister. Or two. LOL

Yep. I spent about 300 at REI last year. Of which, 140 was eligible for the divided... So 14 bucks and 20% off.

I don't remember the small print stating some things weren't eligible to have the dividend applied.

Sale items and things you buy with a coupon or discount code are generally excluded from the dividend. I buy stuff on sale a lot so my rebate tends to be small.

Same here, but about a week ago an REI opened a few miles from my office and on my commute home (previously, closest REIs were about an hour away). Thankfully, its on the opposite side of the highway so that will curb impulse visits!

There are some exclusions on what you can use the coupon for, like anything with a GPS and hard shelled boats, and non-REI brand bikes. Big ticket stuff, in other words. :)

We have our gear all dialed in, too, so I'll probably blow it on shoes or sunglasses or something.

Knoxville got an REI just last fall. It's only about a mile from where I work. Going there today during lunch to get a lighter pack. :)

Although it's exciting to get a 20% off coupon, I recently worked through the details. As a member, you get 10% off at REI. Items you buy with the 20% off coupon are not eligible for that 10% discount, so effectively the 20% off coupon is really a 10% off coupon that gives you an additional 10% off the 10% you automatically get. Enjoy.

Why not wait until Friday (which is the date I heard for the 20% off coupon)?

Got my dividend / 20% off coupons (store, outlet - 1 each) in the mail and spent the dividend last night - $163! new merino longsleeve base layer, a new sawyer mini (froze my other one - whoops!) a mini flask, pole mount kit for my gopro and hiking pants for my son! The 20% coupons start Friday. And conveniently our local garage sale is Saturday.

I am excited to see what mine is as well. I think that I am going to get our 4yo daughter a pack for this summer.

Called ahead to inquire. They said they would apply the discount today if it was more convenient for me. So, I have a new Osprey Kestrel, a purple stuff sack, and a new blue pair of Injinji socks! I'm a happy girl. :)

I got killed on that last year as I had made all of my major purchases before receiving the coupon. I even went back to try and get credited for items purchased earlier but it has to be within 2 weeks of the start date...EEERRRRR.

Got mine in the mail yesterday. Having an REI Visa really helped bump up the dividend. What to buy? Decisions, decisions...

Mine was $160. Geez!!does it take a lot to gear up for the AT.
With coupon I'll but another pair of boots.

I bought a fuel canister with my last 20% discount.

Maybe a second pair of shoes.

REI is truly a great place to buy gear/clothing, etc. I've always had a good experience with them and I would suggest getting the REI visa card as well.

Hmm, wondering if a YETI cooler is 20% eligible. Have a 50 gt one that keeps ice for 3 days. Need a smaller one for day trippin.

YES to this so pleased. Also a few miles. Also on my commute. Also not totally convenient, which will curb impulse visits.

Got my dividend yesterday (might cover a fuel canister), along with a $100 gift card for getting an REI Visa card.

I used the same combination last year - $100 gift card, 20% off coupon, and part of my dividend, to get a NeoAir XTherm for about $49. WELL worth it!

Once you've gotten the credit card and made a purchase, how long until your gift certificate shows up?

You guys wait til they mail the package!! I start checking my account on the website around March 10 (even though I know its NEVER out til 15th or later).

$628 bones this year! Whoop! (I put all my bills, utilities, business expenditures, etc on it).

last year I blew it pretty quick. This year I'm going to deliberate on what goodies I get.

Mine came today. 15 days from approval on the Visa coming by e-mail to the gift card sitting in my mailbox. I've got a Downmat 7 and a second pair of convertible pants inbound now.

Just used mine on a pair of Brooks Cascadia 9's! Tried on a bunch of different trail runners in store and decided to pull the trigger on these next time a good coupon showed up.
