Question of the Day: How Lazy are You With Mail-In Gadget Rebates?
Rebate sales are everywhere when it comes to consumer electronics. Some of them are shady for sure, but even for the legit ones, you still have to go though a bunch of bs to get your money back. For that reason, I would be willing to bet many of the consumers out there forfeit the savings because they were too lazy or forgetful to fill out forms and cut out UPC codes. So the question is, how lazy/forgetful are you with mail-in gadget rebates? More » -

How to Claim Your $100 "Early iPhone Owner" Credit
Apple has released the magic three steps it'll take to snag your $100 in store credit, which can be redeemed either at retail locations or the online store. According to our intern Benny, the process actually is as easy as it sounds: Fill in your phone number and your iPhone's serial number; you'll get a text message with an access code; pop in the access code and your phone number again. Bam. You have $100, which you can proceed to give right back to Apple. Update: The fine print says you have to be activated on AT&T, which is why they check your phone number. So if you're planning on jumping countries or carriers via unlocking, get your money first. Update #2: Another look at the fine print shows that the credit can not be applied to an Apple Gift Card, iTunes Store purchase or an iTunes Gift Card. [Apple]
