Unopened rebate requests found in San Jose dumpster

http://www.mercurynews.com/ci_6814729

...I am staring at more than 1,300 rebate requests sent to Vastech on Bonaventura Drive in San Jose. The envelopes were tossed - unopened - into a garbage dumpster near Vastech. I have two boxes of envelopes that were thrown out without being processed. In all of my years of reporting, I have never encountered such outrageous behavior against consumers.

Come on, isn't that where we imagine EVERY rebate mail in request ends up? I hate mail in rebates and it's gotten to the point where I won't even figure them into the price of something I'm buying because half the time they never show up or get wrongly denied.
