allystl Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 I have 30+ rebates to send out. And I'm sitting here online. ;-) But, I have NO problem cuttng off UPC's off the items that are a gift and most are gifts. And the best part, at least in my house, is the story behind the gifts. The gifts are in plain sight and they bought them (with my money of course) and on Xmas they'll open up the gifts they helped to buy. It always cracks us up! Oh well, here I go rebating!
Reisch Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Mailed all 6 of mine today. Hopefully I got them in the mailbox before pickup. Mailbox said 3:45PM and I put them in at 3:47 but no USPS Employees were nearby. I dropped two more in the mailbox tonight!
Rebirth Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 I filed mine online on the same day I bought the HD from Staples. Staples Rebates are so easy.
WELUVKDS79 Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Nope!!! I did accidentally by a dup DVD...gonna have to sell it on ebay..

I want to get one too. This is a really cool program to keep up w/rebates!I'm assuming with rebate rebate (sounds like the pizza, pizza guy on tv!! :) )you have to manually enter each purchase from your receipts?
Marcster Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Congrats on the LCD! I want to get one too. This is a really cool program to keep up w/rebates!I'm assuming with rebate rebate (sounds like the pizza, pizza guy on tv!! :) )you have to manually enter each purchase from your receipts?Yes, If you wanted to, you could enter the address it was sent to, the official name of the rebate, etc. But I only enter the bare minimum about each rebate, since I keep a hard copy. It's a great way to keep track of how much $$$ is outstanding and/or overdue... The "mascot" of the program is a frog, hence the "Rebate Rebate".
bethc24 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Anyone else get the free printer at CC with the purchase of the computer? There are two rebates, one for $30 and one for $50...both want the original UPC and are both sent to Lexmark...do I send both in the same envelope?

There are two rebates, one for $30 and one for $50...both want the original UPC and are both sent to Lexmark...do I send both in the same envelope?Beth--I didn't buy the printer, but I know exactly what you are talking about with two rebates for the same product that both want the original... I always send the original to the larger rebate, in your case it would be the $50.00 one. I would not send them both in the same envelope. I don't do that even if they going to the same PO Box. Keep copies of everything you send in, and if you have to fight for the second rebate, you'll be able to tell them that you couldn't send the original to both...
SuperMommy Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I haven't even thought about it yet. Of course I'm just starting to get over a horrible cold I've had ever since Friday from standing out at Circuit City from 3 am till 5 am.
guardado4 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I had 4 rebates and I got them all sent off! I thought I had a lot until I read what you all have...I have about $85 coming back, I can only imagine what some of you have coming.

Both my rebate receipts asked for copies of the UPC not the original. I doublechecked that before I mailed them off.
wright1baby Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 I am sending out the only one I had today...but it's a big one. $200 on a 27" LCD. Kind of hoping I'll forget about it and get it in the mail in a couple of weeks and get my own little Christmas gift!
emptynest-2 Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Ihad 4 rebates, Sony $40, BB $10, and 2 PNY $20 each. I put one of the PNY in my Granddaughter's name one per household. Mailed then yesterday after made copies of all paper work. 6 to 8 weeks.
Daisimae Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Mine went into the mail first thing Monday morning. Small amounts though, all together the four of them equaled about $35.
Angelseyes28 Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 I always wait till after Christmas to do my rebates. I'm always too scared that if I go ahead and send them off then one of the items won't work and I won't be able to take it back b/c it won't have the upc code on it.
