"Best Buy" indeed. Maybe they should change their name to "Ok Buy."

Does BB lose money when people submit their rebates or is it the fulfillment company who pays the cost of the rebate?

Best Buy is so going to lose on this "customer centricity" idea. Basically, they're telling these hourly employees that its ok to alienate certain prospective shoppers based on whether they exhibit signs of being a "deal shopper." Now imagine what a retail employee considers as ok methods of alienation....
