Join the co-op membership is only $20 and the benefits are awesome. Members get back 5% dividend annually and a 20% off coupon. My favorite by far is there annual "Garage sale" where seconds and returns are put at deep discount prices. They use to have the $.87 sale anything ending with .87 is 50% off. I hope they bring that back. But anyhow, if you are an outdoor enthusiast, you got to have an REI membership or try their Visa REI card and receive more benefits. Even though I shop online, I love hanging out at the store learning about new products and new technology. I could spend a whole day there. BTW: I love their return policy. Check it out online.
