one $20 bottle of makeup, eye cream, or similar product: All you have to do is show up at a department store Tuesday.
You don't need to show a reciept....you will just have to sign a form saying you received your free jar, so that you can't get another.

Dell Computer Settlement: Partial RefundsDell computer will pay more than three million dollars to 34 states. State Attorneys General said Dell engaged in "deceptive" financing promotions, promising zero-percent financing but charging them higher rates.
Consumers also claim they did not recieve the promised rebates and had trouble getting warranty service.
Under the settlement, Dell will pay one-point-five million dollars into a special account, which will then be distributed to customers.
If you bought a Dell computer
between April 2005 and April 2009, and experienced a rebate, financing, or warranty repair issue, you may be eligible for a piece of the settlement.
