Quicken 2006 Release Date

IIRC, in the past when purchasing the Quicken download, you were charged shipping and tax, and you still had to send in the rebate form to get $20 back. This year, there's no shipping charge on the download, although they do still charge tax. But they deduct the $20 rebate, so you don't have to fill out the paperwork and send it in. This is making me think twice about waiting a few days to buy it in the stores.

Understood. Rebates can be problematic... However, in the past 10-15 years, I've never, ever, had a problem with rebates from Intuit. Their latest on-line applications with automatic deposit into checking accounts can be amazingly fast.....

Obviously, it's up to the individual buyer what constitutes enough of a savings to warrant the "hassle" of getting shrink wrap packages and submitting rebate applications.... There's no "right" answer, only what's best for you............
