its true. thats why most companies have shyed away from the instant rebates, and now offer mail in rebates. i forget the number, but its a known fact people are more likely to not even take the time to mail it off.

The fine print on these rebate tend to say something to the extent that incomplete or incorrect forms will be voided. So another words, you better not make any mistakes or you can kiss your rebate good bye. (How are you going to fight this one!?!) Which reminds me, I should have received a IPOD Nano from a contents I won. OF course, it had to be mailed in. MFers! |

it sure isn't, but i just found out why i probably am not going to get it. i owe a student loan, and they had me as not being enrolled so they probably took it. idk how i'm going to get it if that happened.
