Thanks

sorry, OD lady kept mine

Isn't it interesting how when you PM at any store the CS rep always asks to try to keep the competitor's flyer? It's almost as if they're trained to try to keep those out of public areas in the store or it may even be that they want to do a PM for a personal purchase (I live out in the boonies where I'm almost the only person that is aware of stores' PM policies - sometimes even the reps are shocked at the stuff we ATers do for a good legit bargain).

That's not true b/c most of the retail corporates required that competitor ads to submit every time they do a pricematch. Not that they do it for personal gain. The same thing applies to coupons. The coupons must be submitted too.

That would be nice! Pick up 4 of these and have a 120GB Raid 0 array! :Q

4 places to send rebates that i dont have :-\
