It sure has made things easier now that you can at least track rebates on line. You still have to gather the required documentation. But, too, recognizing that they can be troublesome to many, I believe it is Best Buy has stopped allowing them. It was one of the big stores that announced that last fall, I think. As you say, I will put in that little effort to save $30. Now between $40 and $28, it becomes a little more of a toss-up. But then too, I am used to working.
