Why do we love coupons and question rebates? According to research, in 2016, 38 percent of people actively look for coupons while people submit thousands of complaints concerning rebates. On average over $500 million in rebates go unclaimed over a year according to Consumer Affairs. To ease the hassle and streamline the process, here are a few tips on how to ensure you get rebates and gifts easier than you thought it could be.
- Read the fine print. There are always terms and conditions that share the details to receiving the rebate. The terms may include a minimum or maximum quantity, specific item numbers to use, a time period to receive the gift or rebate and more.
- Stay in the know. Check out rebates, special offers and gifts on a regular basis. Manufacturers will provide monthly and/or quarterly promotions for a variety of items. It may match items you already order on a regular basis. By staying aware of what gifts and or rebates are available, you won’t miss out. You can even easily browse by brands to see what you can receive.

Also, know when to expect a gift or rebate check; it could take up to eight weeks to receive a return.
