Did You Buy A Brita Pitcher? Forget About The Rebate – Brita Says!

in Great Deals on 01/19/12

 Click to read the UPDATE:  

Brita Changed Their Minds, Again!

 

If you bought the Brita Pitcher that we found such great deals on with their rebate, it looks like it’s a no go!

Brita announced on their Facebook page they won’t be honoring the rebate – unless it’s in the mail already.

Now , the rebate does say it expires 3/31/2012 – but, I never saw anything that said “While supplies last”, that’s what they are saying now on their Facebook page:

Brita FilterForGood Hi Nomiki – this is Andrea from Brita. Unfortunately we are no longer able to honor the rebates because all rebate supplies have been exhausted. We will be honoring any rebates that were already mailed in. I apologize for the inconvenience! If you would like to make a formal complaint, please visit our website at http://www.brita.com/contact/.

You can voice your concerns on their Facebook page or thru the website listed above.

You can also return any pitchers you bought.  Other than that I don’t know what we can do.

My friend Sara, over at Saving For Someday has written a great post with even more info on what you can do!

    LAME. Olay did this to me not once but twice in the past…Their letter if denial stated that I didn’t provide UPCs for promotional items…although their rebate only stipulated ANY Olay products. I complained, to no avail. lesson learned “don’t buy it unless I would buy it without a rebate offer”

    That is such utter bs……what the heck, you mean if I didn’t get mine in the mail, I don’t get a rebate? So not cool! That is fraud, unless there was fine print no one read on the rebate form.

      Sarah » I just re-read the rebate again – I still don’t see anything that says anything that would remotely suggest they could do this…

    I got my $10, but it took about 3 months! They had to be losing money on it because at the time I did it I think there was a $4 or $5 coupon that you could use and Wal-mart had them super cheap. It was a big money maker for consumers.

    I’m assuming this is a new deal because I bought one quite a while back and received my rebate last week. That stinks that people aren’t getting their rebates.

    Brita will be honoring these. Here is the post…Hi Brita fans! Great news to report: We will be honoring all the mail-in rebates that were recently available! We apologize for all the inconvenience this caused. Thanks for you patience and sticking with Brita. Enjoy your rebates!

    This is the reason why I don’t do rebates. I never know if they are going to be honored. I only do rebates if they are given up front at purchase.
