Do rebates work?
Well the mails that i get thrashed with daily are pretty irritating. I dont know whether they are rebates at all. The prices are increased and on that a discount is allowed. No use as it seems to me. Smile

I send them in every now and then, but if I don't need the product, I will not buy it just because of a rebate.

This is smart, no sense in buying something if you are not going to use it. Rebates are good on commonly used products such as over the counter medications and such. I always think they inflate the price before offering the rebate and sometimes what you have to go through is not worth the headache. I bought a new computer that had several different rebates, it was a pain, I only did it because it was a good amount of money. I don't know why they can't just drop the price, I like instant rebate myself.

got you there, if you need it buy if not don't. I would rather have the instant rebate offers too, right there on the spot.

These forums are a great way to earn a few dollars. I seen in another posts several ways of saving money, some real smart tips there. Yes, good, it is instant rebate or probably no rebate for me. When I bought the new computer, it was one for the tower, one for the monitor and one for the printer, it was ridiculuous when they could have just knock the money off right from the start. I can't imagine that it saves the companies any money, they have to pay the manpower to process all those rebates, so why not have the cashier do it at the store or the checkout on the computer checkout do it. That just makes more sense to me and would prompt me to buy the product if I needed it.

Hey Morningstar, never heard of epoll that's cool. I just used my points for my christmas shopping and well on my way to getting gift cards or you can donate them/points to charities. nice program...same with you it's slow but if you're patient then you'll get rewarded. in addition you can do surveys i think. i mainly use sendearnings to shop and do surveys, you get cash back on your purchases. there's over 600 stores you can shop from and they keep track of the rebates you earn. oh lovin the avatar you have there, where did you get it. it's cute!

If anyone is interested, I do mypoints.com. With this your accumualte points, which you can turn into a gift card for places. They have a shopping list of stores you can order from ( Walmart, JCPenny,etc) and you get so-many-points on how much you spend. It's not like a rebate thing, but, you can get 'earn' free stuff. It's kind of neat.

Writing...are you referring to grammar, or neatness?
