Freebies
Manufacturers want you to try their new products but sometimes they don't offer a freebie sample.
The next best thing is a rebate. What's a rebate? The manufacturer of the product will mail you a
check for the purchase price of certain products.
How does it work?
Step One: You buy the specific product at the store.
Step Two: Fill in the manufacturers rebate form.
Step Three: Mail the rebate form and other required info (usually a UPC and/or store receipt) to the manufacturer of the product.
Step Four: YOU GET A CHECK IN THE MAIL!
Rebate checks usually take about 4 - 8 weeks to arrive. Next is the most important fact you need to know:
You have to open every piece of mail even if it looks like junk mail. I had a check arrive once that I almost tossed
in the recycle bin by my mailbox. It looked like junk mail! I know it can be a little inconvenient but it's a
great way to try full size products.
Read on for a list to see what you can get a refund for.

Money Saving Tips
In a recent article by the
Los Angeles Times, a survey showed that
healthcare costs are rising while benefits are shrinking. Health premiums have risen 153.5% since 2002 which is five times the inflation rate in California. And on top of that, employers offering health insurance has dropped to 63% from 73%. In fact, 46.3 million Americans under the age of 65 do NOT have health insurance. These are scary statistics, but there are ways you can go about managing your health care without health insurance.
