How exactly do you get the additional unadvertised rebate? At the register? Some clarification requested.
Thanks.


Yes, at the register. When I purchased my CDRs, I received an EXTRA rebate. YMMV.

Recieved the extra rebate form here too.

Paid $9.XX
Rebate 1: $7
Rebate 2: $2
Rebate 3: $2

=$1 in my pocket or just about break even after buying stamps. This is a hot deal in my book!
each $2 rebate has a different address, so they both should be valid.

Also check out the Fuji CD's at BB. These are supposed to be high quality TY's. $7 after MIR.

Got mine. 3 rebates, and the 20 min free calling card. Good deal, although filling out all the rebate stuff is a pita. But still a good deal.

And these are actually pretty nice CDs. They seem decently constructed, and the top seems to be well-protected. You can't hold them to the light and easily see right through them like you can with cheapos.

Agreed. I'm using some of the older 1x-32x rated "AT&T" CDRs right now, in my Sony 48x12x48 (slightly modified Lite-On) CD-RW, and the "SMART-BURN" feature says they will burn at up to 48x. My older (16x rated, I think) T-Y Fujis will only burn at 16x (although flawlessly). Of course, I'm not sure how accurate "SMART-BURN" is, because it rated my super-old 8x CMC cyanine discs at 32x, and when burned, they weren't recognized in any of my CD drives.
All-in-all, sounds like a good deal, nearly free.

The Best Buy in Frisco, TX printed out 3 rebates, as well. Plenty of spindles left.

However, I didn't see any spindles with calling cards. Oh well - still an awesome deal for some decent CD-Rs.

Why oh why don't we have a BB in town? I don't really like 'em in general, but then I miss out on CDR deals :p
