Dudes! I am now GETTING PAID money to buy rum. Best. Moneymaker. Ever.
Let me back up.
On Tuesday, I was shopping at my local Fry’s (where, by the way, I NEVER find wine tags or liquor rebates of any kind) and I found a stack of what I thought were $60 Bacardi rebates. I thought, sweet! I can share some with my readers.
But then, when I went to fill one of the forms out yesterday, I realized that what I had grabbed were NOT rebates. They were instant coupons! $2/1 or $5/2 coupons, good on Bacardi rum!!
See! {click to enlarge}
So guess what I did? I called Total Wine, and asked if they took manufacturer’s coupons. They do! So, like any good couponer, I took our receipts back to the customer service desk, along with 6 of the $5/2 coupons, and had them return our 12 bottles and re-ring them up, using the coupons.
That’s $30 back in our pocket!
After the rebate, I am now GETTING PAID $12.76 to buy 6 bottles of rum. And so is Tony. Craziness.
Check out my new receipt:
It must have been MY DAY for liquor rebates, because I also received my $50 rebate from the Smirnoff rebates in the mail!! My parents confirmed they received the other one too. It took 8 weeks from the date I mailed the rebates off to receive the checks, and I was starting to get antsy.
+++++
Now, for the fun part! I have ONE rebate form left, and I’m going to give it away, along with three $5/2 coupons! This should be a moneymaker, or at least breakeven deal no matter where you buy the rum.
See my post HERE for a reminder of the rebate terms.
This will be a quick one, because I want to get these out in the mail so you have plenty of time to send off for the rebate (you have until 9/15 to buy the rum and 9/29 to postmark the rebate).
What you will win: (1) “60 Second Cocktails” Save up to $60 Rebate + (3) $5/2 coupons
To enter: Just leave a comment!
You have until Monday, September 6th, 7pm AZ time to enter. I will pick a winner randomly and contact them via email, so be sure to leave a way to contact you! The coupons are only valid for residents of AZ, NM, and NV only, sorry!
