WAITING ON REBATES The photos in the In-N-Out Burger post below were taken with a Fuji S7000 six megapixel digital camera. CONTRAPOSITIVE is still waiting for a $100 rebate on said camera--seven weeks after the rebate was sent in to Fuji.

"Please allow up to 4-6 weeks for processing," the S7000 rebate offer had advised. But on the phone today, Denise over at Fuji informed CONTRAPOSITIVE that eight weeks from Fuji's receipt would be a more realistic expectation.

Then ensued a surreal debate about what precisely constitutes a "week."

After having mulled it over a bit, I think it's safe to say that I've never received a rebate in the time frame specified by the rebate offer. Ever.

Any thoughts?
