I have been gettiing in on a lot of great deals most of which include rebates, and after getting this really handy computer tracking program, I discovered I have over $1200 in outstanding rebates. Anyone know of a good 12 step program for rebate addiction?? :eek:

No but I can recommend a good 2 step program:

Step 1: call your credit card companies and cancel your cards

Step 2: call your bank and cancel your debit card

if those don't work,

Step 3: Only buy products that don't have rebates available. :)

I have so many outstanding rebates, I need to add a clause to my will on who is going to inherit my vast rebate fortune if something happens to me....:p

Yeah - I have forgotten to send in at least $200 of MIRs (from like 4 deals) so I decided never to do a deal if the price was only good if it involved a MIR - not worth having $ tied up for that long and dealing with the headache of sending them in/potentially not receiving the $.
