This advice is prompted by a post on Chat:
Fight slippage! Even though we as refunders should be the best at mailing in our refunds, sometimes we are victims of slippage caused by our own disorganization, laziness, or forgetfulness. To fight refunds lost from our own mistakes, here are tried and true habits to make your own:
1. Keep envelopes, pen, address labels, an Exacto knife, and stamps in a kitchen drawer.
2. When you unpack your groceries, put refund items on the counter in a separate place along with the cash tape.
3. Circle items on the receipt, cut off the UPCs, filled out the envelope and form, address, seal and stamp it.
4. Set the envelope to go out in the mail.
5. Put away the product in your cupboard. The trick is to not put it away until the refund is in a sealed envelope ready to mail.
6. Mail it!
7. If the rebate takes multiple purchases done at separate times, address the envelope and keep it in the kitchen drawer. Add cash tapes and UPCs as you buy the products. When you complete the refund, seal and mail immediately.
8. Resolve never to lose another refund.
