DOH, been there done that. Call them up if you can get a number and tell them what you did. If you have a copy of it, make another and put it all in the mail.

I did that with the epson printer rebate last year for $70.00, oh man I thought I was done for, but they really helped me out and I got it.

I didn't make a copy...I normally do, but this one was only for $3 and I thought it was too much of a hassle. Oops!

Not just the S/O!! I'm sorry this happened, couldn't help laughing because I've done it also!! Do as NIGHTB1012 suggested, they should help you out and/or send you another rebate form :)

[sati769leigh]

arggghgghhghghgh so been there and done that!! so sorry op

[kval07]

Oy. I'm sorry that happened. Whenever I do rebates I fill the envie and leave it unsealed on my desk for a few weeks. Then I double check and seal and mail.

I'm not even gonna touch the whole photocopying discussion. I just mailed in 5 MIRs and didn't copy a single one...
