Don't Leave Money on the Table

As soon as possible, send in any rebates for any components that you ordered. I had thought that the rebate slips might come in the package from Newegg with the ordered product but, silly boy, that would be too easy. However, Newegg did make it pretty easy. If you didn't print out the rebate information at the time of the order, you can still go back to Newegg and print it. I will warn you that the rebate information does not appear on the order and, if you created a wish list, the rebate information that appears there is the current rebate. It is best to login to Newegg, click on My Newegg, then click on Rebate Center on the right. In the rebate center, enter the item number for each item that you have ordered and then press Search. The current and recent rebates for the item will appear in the lst. Most mail-in rebates have an Offer Valid Through date, so make sure that you pick the right one.

Note that most mail-in rebates require you to send in a UPC number or some other item off the packaging, meaning that you can't return the item after you mail in the rebate, so don't dilly-dally around. Put the machine together before the rebates expire and make sure that you are happy with the components before you send in the rebates.
