Restrictions on Mail In Rebates in Wisconsin?

Oh me oh my. Seems that we now need to be protected from rebates. At least that is what one Wisconsin state senator thinks. Wisconsin State Senator John Lehman wants to protect consumers from “slippage”. That’s what happens when the consumer buys the product, attracted by the rebate, but somehow never turns the rebate in or it is denied on a technicality.

You are likely one of those people who looks for every diaper deal, every coupon, every chance to save. I usually tell people to not be brand loyal when it comes to purchasing frequently used products. You cannot be brand loyal and take advantage of every deal out there. Diapers can be another story, however, because of fit, absorbancy, and so on. Every baby is … Continue reading
