Rebates have become increasingly popular in the last few years on a lot of items and certainly on electronic items and computers. Rebates of $20, $50 or $100 are not uncommon.
I’ve even seen items advertised as “free after rebateâ€. Do these rebates come under the heading of “too good to be trueâ€? Some of them do and there are “catches†to watch out for but if you are careful, rebates can help you get some really good deals.
