Rebates
Are you getting sick of those sales advertising Rebates? I see it more and more, great big price that seems too good to be true. Then you read the fine print and it says $x.xx Instant Rebate, $x.xx Mail-In Rebate. Now, I have had good luck for the rebates I tried, they all showed up except one. But the return is hardly worth the effort if you consider your time, the stamp, and the wait. Must be enough of us doing that to make it worth their while. Think from now on I will wait for a true Sale Price. The only way to stop it is to stop buying using that method. Wonder if this is related to the Spam brothers?
