In the past 30 minutes I have gotten two calls from two very different companies offering me a Gas Rebate for trying their products.

The first was a $15 gas rebate for trying a new accident and hospital policy. The company got my name from my life insurance carrier. The gist of the conversation was I could try the accidental policy for 30 days and if I didn’t like it could cancel the policy and keep the $15 gas rebate.

About 15 minutes later, I got a call from a company associated with American Express offering me a $60 rebate for joining a new discount shopping program.

Can I hear 100? $200? How about a year of free gas. Then you’ll have my attention.
