Do you know how many $100's of rebates I lost in the last 10 years?
They're a way of making the customer spend money thinking they got a
good price, all the while hoping they forget to redeem the rebate in
time. That trick works well on me, especially if I'm travelling and
have little time to pay attention. Rebates that are redeemed at
checkout time are fine.

Many rebates also seem to have a condition that makes me purchase
something I didn't really want in addition to my main purchase  in
order to get the rebate, and I don't do that.
