Fry's Electronics Outpost.com guilty of bait and switch

Futura Monitor rebate scam less than GEM Monitor $70 rebate scam...
Fry's got me on two rebate scams. Not only did I get nailed for a $40 rebate on the Futura, I also got nailed on the $70 GEM Monitor rebate promotion. Fry's is the real loser. Shame on them for continuing to promote rebates for the same products, creating further unfair situation...
