#24I have a lot of appreciation for the fact that, despite how large the company has become, it's very clear that outdoorsiness is still a big part of the REI's DNA, especially with so many companies these days owned by private equity firms that seem to be most interested in milking their brands for all they're worth.
It's worth noting that REI is a co-op, which means it's owners are actually it's customers.
I've got annual checks sitting here somewhere for both me and my wife. They're never huge, since REI sells such expensive stuff, we never spend much. I think both of our checks add up to around $50. Still, it's nothing to sneeze at.

Yes, she did...
Fun fact: 'Dude' is has no implied gender in many parts of the world that use the word. Same with 'guys'.
You've heard the song, "Dude looks like a lady", right? It would make the title a lot less impactful if this was generally accepted.

I love how they close the stores on Black Friday[1] and invite members to spend the day outdoors.
