12 Free After Rebate Plus Profit Deals

Posted by kim on November 19, 2009

Many manufacturers offer rebates for the full purchase price of products. The companies make their money by hopefully gaining you as a customer or by you forgetting to mail in the rebate forms! But you can make money as well as get free products by using a coupon when you make the initial purchase because you’ll get the original purchase price refunded.  A lot of refund offers are “guarantees” where you need to include why you dislike the product. You can still like the actual product, but maybe you don’t like the packaging or the price is too high to buy regularly. Those are legitimate reasons for a refund as well. If you can’t use the products yourself, put them in a gift basket or donate to your local food pantry!

Here is a list of printable rebate forms, as well as coupons if available, that I* recommend…

Clorox 2 Money-Back Guarantee Refund Form (up to $7) (expires 6/30/10) minus $1.50 off printable coupon

Dove Hair Repair Challenge (up to $8 money back) (expires 12/31/09) minus coupons from RedPlum SS inserts

More Printable Rebate Forms and Printable Manufacturer Coupons

*I personally use a legal size envelope and write down all of the rebates that I’d like to do and keep the printed rebate forms and coupons inside that envelope.  I usually try to get all of the items at Super Walmart (as I don’t have a lot of other choices around here).  I then checkout at a Self-Checkout lane and purchase each item individually as I’ll need a separate receipt for each item to send in. It is easiest to use a gift card for purchase as to not hassle with cash or a debit/credit card for each transaction. When you can get a discounted gift card for less than the actual value (available from Plastic Jungle &/or Ebay), you save/make even more money!
