I was expecting a few bucks, but was pleasantly surprised to see I had built up a $100 dividend! DADDY GOT NEW BOOTS! $125, deduct the 20% for one single item...made them $100, applied my dividend and viola...FREE BOOTS!

$7.63 for me, just looking to see what I can use the 20% off on that's all. Maybe a new climbing harness.

New GPS for me. I run everything on my REI Visa and always get back a couple hundred bucks.

Yeah the REI credit card is the way to score BIG dividends! When I got married 5 years ago, my wife and I registered at REI (more-so than any other store actually). Anyone who bought us a gift that didn't have their own account got us credit. I scored an $800 dividend that year. I actually waited for a business trip to Seattle to go to their flagship store to blow the $800 (it was surprisingly easy).

I'm not excited about the dividend very much, but I did like that my booklet that it came in had a picture of a guy standing on the Devil's Bridge in Sedona. It was a gray day, but it still looked nice. It's neat to see stuff from your backyard in a magazine. Anyone else see that?

I just got $42 towards my new hiking boots there yesterday. I forgot about that, turns out to be a good when I go there. I'll be getting a new GPS soon and instead of ordering it online, I might just make the trip there just to put the money towards that.

Went to REI for first time in a long time today. I think I'm going to pay my $20 for a membership! Also fell in love with an Osprey Atmos pack. Have to save for alittle while.
