I'm pretty set on hard goods, so I'm gonna get a box of Harmony House food. With my coupon and my dividend it's gonna cost me like $5.

cant get at rei tho, gotta get online

I just moved to an area with a REI this past year, but I've got around $25 going toward next year. Does anyone have the REI mastercard? I'm 23 and figure it's about time to get a credit card. The $100 gift card is appealing but is it a good card?

This worth it/any good?

>>988231
Dunno yet, first time trying it.
Gets pretty good reviews.

>>988233
It seems so piratical but also something I could so on my own. I've been on the fence with this for a while.

>>988207
Ye

>>988207
do it

even if you only use it once you still steal that $100

Is that the trail pro? I got it, very warm. 10/10 would recommend.

I just used my dividend to upgrade to an insulated inflatable pad, the trail pro was just too thin, I'm a side sleeper and just could not get comfy, ergo could never get enough sleep.

i got a large women's trail lite. cheap and warmer than the men's version.

Fuck REI.

I bought a hydroflask from them on sale and that shit broke in three months time. Contacted corporate and they told me to just go to my nearest REI store and just exchange it there to forgo the mailing-it-in costs. I planned a trip and the worker at the customer service didn't want to exchange it without having me pay the difference between the price I paid and the price listed as new. Needless to say I refused to pay more to exchange my defective one for a working unit.

I have never experienced anything like that. She was very condescending too. She said "what part of our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee do you not understand?". She obviously didn't understand that I did not want to pay more money to get a unit replaced. I have done many warranty claims/exchanges and not once did I have to pay a dime more.

I called corporate again and they apologized stating that what they did was wrong on their behalf and to contact the manager of the store to get something worked out. The representative again reassured me and stated that no money should be involved in the exchanging of a defective unit.

When I contacted the store via phone the worker apologized about what had happened stating that they have new workers and that they might have misunderstood their warranty/exchange policy. She said that the best way to contact the manager would be via email which she readily gave.

I wrote the manager the email informing him what had happened. After two weeks he finally emailed back and he defended his worker and stated that because I bought the bottle at a discounted price that I would still have to pay the difference to get a new one. He said for the inconvenience he is willing to give me 30% off on the next bottle. What a crock of horseshit.

Needless to say I am very disappointed on how shit went down. I got sold a defective unit and I have to pay extra to get a new working one.

Fuck REI once again

You're going to have to explain how you broke it before I choose sides on your story

>>991146
>I bought the bottle at a discounted price
why was the price discounted?

>>991214
I didnt use it for a week when it broke. It was left alone in my gear closet and when I finally used it for some hot cocoa I noticed that it was transferring heat to the outer body. Bottle was well taken care for and had not suffered any major drop. Just a small one about a month before it stopped working.

It was either an end of year sale or winter sale. Honestly don't remember. I purchased it in November last year.

>>991455
so they were clearancing out last year's model. that's why it was cheap, and that's why you needed to make up the difference.

>>991482
That sucks. Really disappointed with the result of it. I'll just take it up with hydroflask then.

>>991495
dollars to donuts the price ended in .73. that's their marker for closeout items.
