So I finally lookedd at the Alcohol / Wine Tag rebates forum and it seems a little too good to be true. Can anyone explain these to me? How do you get the MIR forms? Thanks.

Wine Tags are coupons that are located on wine, oil or any other type of bottle. Wine Tags are coupons that are sponsored by the makers of alcoholic beverages. They usually don't require any wine purchase . These coupons are an often over looked source of savings.

You can find these at most grocery stores that sell wine, and other alcoholic beverages

MIR forms are available online, in stores and in coupons circulars. Many companies offer a satisfaction guarentee meaning if you don't like the product they will send You your money back..This is one example of MIR

With winetags the print on the tag will tell you how to receive the rebate.If your state is a package liquor state ( some are) you may not find the winetags. Winetags are often have states that they are vallid in.
