<p>This PHD student has too much time on his hands.</p>
<p>How much time to input those 200-250 prepaid cards into the system?</p>
<p>How much time to find those “free” stuff, get the rebates, resell stuff on eBay?</p>
<p>A lot.<br>
And I don’t think the rebate process is that enjoyable! Now, I avoid the mail-in rebates (actually have to mail in the forms etc) as much as possible, I only do the Staples Easy Rebates.</p>
