  1. So, the other day I went to REI for a job application, and while I was
    there I asked about replacing my helmet, which has a dent in it. The
    manager immediately told me that as long as I was a member, I could
    return the helmet in any condition. He said i could've shattered it, and
    still been able to return it. That means that from now on I'm buying my
    helmets, camelbak bite valves, and possibly shoes at REI, because when I
    outgrow, break, or wear them out, I can simply return them for a full
    refund and buy another. I'm so happy!

    Also, I was told that a lifetime membership was just $15 for an entire
    membership. Well worth it for me, since helmets are around $50-60.

    Man, now I know the meaning of "consumer advocate."

    Don't you think it's a cruel irony that acting like a G.I. Joe in the
    army can get you a Medal, while playing with one can get you thrown out?

  2. Some people joke that REI stands for Return Every Item. 🙂

    REI does stand behind what they sell. I've never used their generous
    return policy, but it's there if something really does fall apart on me
    or if something just plain doesn't work as I expected.
