if you could read, you'd realize that what i was criticizing wasn't the size of the deal.. it was criticizing the padding with rebates (sometimes 5 rebates for 1 product) and msn "dollars" just to become a deal...
Deals which involve rebates are warm at best because they take so much time to be issued and they are a risk. Deals involving MSN dollars does not mean you get the MSN bucks back... it means you have to buy something else with that cash, whether you want to or not...
