Subject: RE: BS: Grrrrrr!!! Rebates are a Rip-Off....
Well, WYSusan is right, I should have read all the "Rebare Rorms" right there in line at the store...

But it had been a hectic day... We had tried to buy the package at another Best Buy and they didn't have all the stuff and so they sent us way down in Arlington with no parking and cranky people. The sales people were over their heads with cranky customers and the P-Vine actually got upset at being ignored and when some guy who had only been waiting 5 minutes, as oppsed to the 20 she we had been waiting, she got real testy with folks behind the counter...

Then another 30 minutes to round up everything and then the tape gave out right in the middle of runing the "Rebate Forms" and it was the last day fir the rebates so when, after an entire 5 hours was eaten up with the purhcase and the guy handed us the 6 Rebate forms, with folks behind us about half crazy, I just stuffed them in my coat p[ocket and assumed that what they had advertised would be reflected in the Rebate Forms...

Bad assumption...

Like they say, "Live and Learn" and I think I either not buy anything else witha rebate 'er be darned sure what that rebate is and how to get it...
