Spend $50 or more at REI and add a $30 lifetime membership to that order, and a $30 bonus gift card will appear at checkout automatically, basically making the membership free. Plus, there's a member-only offer running from now through the first week of October, so this, effectively free, lifetime membership will pay dividends pretty quickly, especially since you'll get no-minimum free shipping sitewide on every order.

Member benefits also include 10% back annually on eligible purchases, access to the Re/Supply trade-in program, member-exclusive offers and events, and special pricing for classes, tours, and rentals. The bonus card will expire on October 7.
