Default Screwed by Canon Rebate

Everywhere you shop, they offer rebates, so it's not uncommon to
file 3 or 4 rebates a week, so that after three months, (the normal
waiting period to receive a rebate), you'd have 30-40 rebates that you
are waiting for. How ridiculous is that?
Outlaw rebates and bring back the good old fashioned sale.
THAT'S what consumers want!


What makes you think that the government gives half a **** about what
consumers want? Remember, sales tax gets charged on the pre-rebate price --
if rebates are outlawed, government loses money. You think they'll let that
happen? HAH!
