So mad right now! But its my own fault..

My pc I planned out and built 3 months ago went so flawlessly that I forgot about all the MIR's!!!

I had atleast over $150!

umm about 5 months ago we bought 3 laptops with ~1400 in MIRs...someone who will remain nameless (not me) forgot to send them in. I was a tad unhappy about it.

Rebates are hard enough to get when you send them in on time in gold-foil lined envelopes with freshly baked cookies and 20 bucks included.

and people wonder why manufacturers have mail in rebates.

Everyone knows rebate processors are trying to watch their weight. You're supposed to send in celery and chopped carrot sticks.

For idiots like the OP **Sorry OP** 😉

For the rest of us, we fill out the rebates as we get the product and mail 'em off (while keeping copies of everything):

99% of the time I get my rebates back with no issues. For the 1% of the time where I might hit a snag or get a rejection notice, I always have a backup copy of my UPC code, receipt, rebate form to bitch 'em out. It always works.

:laugh:

procrastinators shouldn't do rebates

thats whay I dont buy anything with rebates...such a hassle...these should be redeemed by the stores where the goods are biught then they send them in

Sometimes you can call them up and say you sent them in but why arent' they showing on the site? THen say you have copies you can send them over if that's OK. Can get aroudn the Oops I forgot thing that way sometimes.

This is the exact purpose of a rebate.

No more big rebates for me. I sent a $100 rebate via certified mail and the USPS still managed to lose it.
