Our Verdict
Interesting that it can be done every month. Obviously a fantastic deal if you’re buying the beer anyway and even better if you live in a state where the alcohol purchase is not required. We saw a similar deal last year.
Hat tip to reader Andy
Does the purchase need to be made the same day? Buy beer and gas on the same day or beer and groceries the same day?
Is Costco considered a grocery store
It was last year. Would assume it counts with the new system
I’m new to this. Can you purchase the beer on a separate receipt from the groceries? If not, can you use the same grocery purchase receipt for multiple beer brand rebates? Thanks!
You can submit separate receipts for beer and groceries. I have successfully done that with the new rebate system. Not sure about using the same grocery receipt for multiple beer brand rebates.
The rebate tracker finally seems to be working. All 5 of my submissions now show, although my January submission was moved to a date in February (thankfully, I did two different brands). All 3 March submissions show as $20 pending and say “allow 3-4 weeks for processing”. I suggest double-checking any January submissions or submissions where you did not receive a confirmation email if you have not been paid for those yet.
Submitted Dos Equis 12 pack + $75 groceries rebate on 2/5/24, received $20 rebate via Venmo on 3/20/24. Rebate never tracked.
Took Forever! Had to check my record logs…
Submitted Dos Equis 12 pack & groceries rebate on Jan 29, 2024
Received $20 by paypal on March 20, 2024.
Seems those 3 – 5 day turnarounds are gone now.
Anyone have any luck stacking the same 12 pack receipt with grocery, gas and $6 back? Last year this was doable but so far I only got the grocery rebate for my 12 pack of Dos X. Submitted all three on January 14th and randomly received paypal notice on March 7th for the 20$. Happy to come out ahead but it looks like the triple stack is gone
I got both the grocery and gas. I didn’t attempt the $6 deal like I did last year since I don’t have confidence in the new system. It took me two months to finally get the payouts.
I just received payment via PayPal for doing this deal in January. Odd, the rebate never showed up on the site, but I got it in the end! I’m going to do it again this month!
Same thing happened to me. Just got paid after submitting in mid January even though I never showed up on the rebate tracker
Good to hear! I decided to roll the dice on doing both a Heineken and Tecate rebate this month. I was able to submit the second rebate successfully, which seems to confirm it should be possible to do all three brands each month. My first submission under the new terms was in late January, hoping to see a payout soon.
I got two payouts of $20 from this deal. They specify which brand the rebate is for in the payout note on Paypal, which helps a little bit with tracking. Hopefully the two I received were for my January and February submissions. I confirmed it was possible to submit all 3 brand deals this month, fingers crossed! Way too much beer already… 🙂
I sent an email since it’s now more than 8 weeks since I submitted. There’s still nothing showing in my status tracker. I got this back in response:
“We’re sorry for the delay in receiving your rebate. It’s approved and in the final stages of processing.
This offer was very popular; we received more submissions than anticipated, and ask that you allow more time.
We are working to distribute these payments as quickly as possible, but we don’t know exactly when that will happen.”
Time to open their eyes and tell them last year it took the whole two days to process and pay?
Not letting me submit for February.
“The max number of entries with your information has already been submitted.”
I submitted in January only so far this year.
Will try emailing. Curious if they’re trying to turn this into a scam this year.
They replied to my email saying that it can take up to 4 weeks for the submission to be trackable online and another 4 weeks for payment.
Also, I was able to submit for February now, but they didn’t send any email confirmation/verifications this time. Obviously a bit glitchy. We’ll see what happens.
Was able to submit in Jan. (no confirmation email, refund received). Submitted for Feb. a few days ago, no email confirmation. Likely same scenario. Be patient and enjoy the beers while you wait it out.
I submitted over 4 weeks ago but it is still not showing on their rebate lookup. I emailed them and they confirmed they received my submission and it is processing
This whole new system is pissing me off and I agree that they’re trying to turn it into a scam where nobody gets paid. The old rebate processor worked fine. Why brake it?
