    Rebates in online stores work the same as in regular stores. For a mail-in rebate, typically, you buy the product. Instead of a paper form, they email you a form to fill out. You print it out, cut off the UPC tag from the product when it arrives, and mail that along with the printed out receipt and get your rebate check 6-8 weeks later or whenever.
