they say rebate. Or are they just taking your money?

Some rebates are instant (like at an auto dealership)
Some from retail have to have the form mailed in with proof of purchase , several sections of the packing container and your 1st born .
Send it in , then wait 2 to 3 months for the check .
The do send them sometimes .

In most cases you are going to get a check back. Some companies will give you a merchandise credit to use towards your next purchase at their store.
Always make copies of everything you send. Some companies are notorious for declining about 25% of all rebates and make the customer try to find their back-up paperwork. I am running about 80-90% in getting my rebates to come back through.
Good Luck

they are legal -- it is just that most folks fail to send them in figuring it is a waste of time for a buck or two!!!
