Hmmm. I hadn't thought about it, but come to think of it, I think it is used more 
extensively in America. The sense it has here is more of a partial refund, as in "Buy 
this mouse and send in the manufacturer's coupon - you get a $10 rebate"
Or as in tax rebate.

I'm actually English, but I can't really think of it being used much in England. Or 
maybe I've just been here too long :)
