Unusual Problem with a Costco rebate - rgG - 01-11-2006
I bought a Kodak Easyshare Picture Viewer at Costco as a Christmas present, but could not get it to work properly with my Mac, big suprise, but that isn't the story. Anyway, I returned it a few days later and got a credit to my credit card for the purchase. There was a $30 rebate for it which I filed on-line the day I bought it, before I opened it and found out it wouldn't play nice with the iBook.
So, sure enough, since Costco is so good with rebates, it arrived in the mail today. My question is, should I:
1. Void the check and take it to Costco
2. Just tear it up and throw it away
3. Just let it lay around till after the expiration date and then throw it away?
I'm not going to cash it, but I just don't know the best way to handle it. I've never had this happen before. So if anyone else has had this happen, I would appreciate advice on how to deal with it. And no, I'm not going to mail it to any of you so you can tear it up for me.

not advocating doing this but. ..
you could cash it and spend the $30 @ costco
or donate it after you cash it.
(this is aside from returning it to Costco)

Is the rebate from Costco or from Kodak? If Costco I would just take the check back next time you visit, hand it over at that big desk thingy and explain the situation. If Kodak, just tear it up and throw it away because you will never get a chance to talk to a human.

It's from Costco. If it was from Kodak I might cash it since it futzed with that **** picture viewer forever before I just gave up and took it back. It was supposed to be Mac friendly, but their idea and mine differ greatly.

I AM advocating this suggestion....
Endorse it over to me so I can join Costco. I'll more than make up for the misery by spending way too much there.

Oh poo, you're always so helpful, aren't you?

I think it covers all the angles rather nicely... PLUS I add 50% just to be able to walk their hallowed aisles!

You're just wanting a smoked salmon fix aren't you?

Salmon smoke?
Someone should tell them it causes cancer. . .

How do they do that underwater, anyway?
