Cool site - thanks!

We have discovered that many rebates (and even some book contests!) are not "open" or "available" to us simply because our mail goes to a PO Box.  mad.gif  Having a PO Box isn't an option - there isn't home mail delivery here. Yup - no letter carriers in little trucks.  tongue.gif

I was thinking of ordering a hard drive they had through Office Depot at that site but they couldn't ship it to my address (based on zipcode) presumably because I've got one of their stores here.  If I bought it in the store I'd have to bother with the rebate hastle so I won't bother!  I guess that really does make me a Curmudgeon!

Speaking as a certified "Curmudgeon", I don't understand the problem with Office Depot delivery. I bought a 250Gig HD from them many months ago and via free shipping, even with two stores within 5 miles. Maybe they just couldn't decide which store to 'force' me to go to. Thinking.gif Why not just call the store and complain.

BTW, I got my $100 rebate on my Epson printer about 8 weeks after sending in the form. Helped pay for the continuous flow ink system ( never need to buy carts again clap.gif ink is now pennies an ounce instead of dollars a gram tongue.gif )! smile.gif
