OK I had to write about this one because I just noticed it. If any of you bought the DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES dvd , you will notice there is a $10 rebate coupon included. You get the rebate for sending back proof of purchases for both LOST and DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES plus the sales receipt for DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES. Sounds simple right?

WELL....

If you read the fine print at the bottom of the rebate coupon, if you bought DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES from the following you cant get the rebate:

WALMART,CIRCUIT CITY,MEDIA PLAY(and affliates),SEARS,BEST BUY,K-MART,BLOCKBUSTER,AMAZON,and a couple of others not here in NC......



HMMMMM....that does not leave a lot of places....but luckily I did buy it from one not on the list so I can get the rebate......


Has anyone else noticed that or am I the first........

Where did you buy it? You just named just about every place you can buy DVD's for good prices in Charlotte.

Technically no...but a lot of times the 'just released' end up there at a lower cost......

LOL...well the receipt doesnt say 'USED' and the rules didnt say it had to be 'NEW'--so I sent it in.

Let me know if it works. I've noticed new releases at CD warehouse quite frequently most with the wrappers on. I asked the guy how he gets them and he mentioned something about radio station people bringing them in.
If I could get a rebate and a cheap price, that would be super.
