    My dividend is posted. I heard they may not have the typical 20% off member coupon this year. Can anyone confirm?

    I was told by an online chat person that the 20% will come out on 3/22

    Previous posters were correct. The coupon does not apply to GPS or PLB.

    I have my 20% coupon…now what do I use it on? I'm building an UL kit and have most of the big ticket things already. Should I buy that Houdini finally (I can find it cheaper than 20% from REI with a coupon)? Should I upgrade my basic synthetic sleeping bag (light enough for my UL kit for now) to a swanky down option (I was going to hold out and get a quilt at some point). Should I upgrade my cheapy down hoody to a true UL down coat?

    The only things I need from REI right now are little things…like platys, a SAK Classic and stakes.

    Ideas?

    You can get platys at STP right now for under $4

    I picked up a Westcomb hoody made from Pertex Equilibrium. Mostly because there wasn't anything I really needed.

    I didn't realize the coupon is 20% off a regularly priced item AND 20% off a REI-Outlet item. I wasted the Outlet discount on a $10 shirt:( I don't recall this double discount before. Maybe just never paid attention.

    Unless REI made changes to its system — you can use the coupon for one item in the store — AND use the code online as well.

    Oh great!??? Now I'm gonna be spending the rest of today looking for THREE things REI sells that I want.

    Well, maybe not … dividend is quite small … divided three ways it might buy a pot grabber … is three pot grabbers too many?

    Feels silly to use a 20% coupon on some socks or a t-shirt or other sub $20 item, but that's about all REI carries that I'm interested in anymore…

    I haven't looked online but I picked up 2 Pat merino 1 shirts in my local store. They were on the clearance rack though

    ^ next time you see a deal like that, shoot me email :)

    I ended up using my REI 20% coupon and part of dividend on a pair of the new Brooks Grit 2's, if I like them I'll blow the rest of my dividend on another pair

    I bought a shirt in store and used 20% off, and just entered the code online at REI.com and it is accepting the 20% off as well…

    So it does appear to work for three items assuming you have a store you can visit that has something you want in stock.

    Not sure if everyone is aware that the REI Visa generates dividends when you use it for any purchase throughout the year, not just those at REI. I use it as a regular credit card all year, pay off the balance each month, and generated a $850 dividend last year and $773 this year. Free money in my opinion. Most of my purchases go to cottage companies these days but REI gets my clothes/shoes/small items business that are most likely to be returned or need returned due to failure.

    my REI Visa gave me $250 and I don't know what to buy with it, with $850 I'd be at a total loss!

    Can't you take it as cash?
