Now one more point. I think companies that make it easier on the consumer
should be rewarded and I know there are plenty that do but I know of one
that is BEST and one that is up and coming and at least trying to a degree.

STAPLES has online filing of Rebates and always pays fast when I have filled
out them. You can also track them along the way. CompUSA, to a much lesser
degree, is processing a few Rebates online now or e-rebates I think they
call it. I told Staples manager that due to their majority of online filing
most of my shopping, if it can be had there, is at Staples. I also hope
others that read this will post and commend other retailers that use and
promote e-rebates.


Staples "EZ rebates" are top notch. I fill out the form online and can
follow the procedure all the way through. I've also had great
experiences with Circuit City rebates - never had one disappear.
