Another positive: Home Depot/Black & Decker[ Parent ] (none / 0) (#15)
by Fushigi on Wed Jul 30, 2003 at 12:22:04 PM PDT

Home Depot had a special where if you bought more than $100 worth of Black and Decker merchandise you'd get a $20 gift card. I mailed in the form on July 12 and got the gift card back 10 days later. Amazing. I've never had such a quick response on a rebate/gift card offer before.

The same day I sent in a Maxtor rebate for a hard drive. While I haven't gotten the rebate check yet, it only took about 5 days to get the acceptance email for the rebate. That's much better than Logitech, who took about 3 months for the email and still hasn't send a check.

My other recent rebate was on TDK CD-Rs. They were purcahsed 6/26 and I got the rebate check this past Saturday; a mere 1 month later.
