Purchase qualifying ANCO wiper blades and get up to a $20 rebate:
• A pair of ANCO Contour, Transform, or Profile = $15 rebate • A pair of ANCO AeroVantage = $10 rebate• A pair of ANCO Winter = $5 rebate • A single Rear Blade (AR-series only!) = $5 rebate
Rock Auto http://www.rockauto.com/ has excellent prices on their wiper blades (for my 2 cars they were 50% less than what Amazon was charging) and 5% off coupon codes can be easily found. Prices on wiper blades very; but they seem to be around $6 for the Profile blades. Even though they charge shipping; For my two cars I could purchase 4 sets of Profile wiper blades (the rebate limit) for just over $53 shipped; while qualifying for a $60 rebate, so I would make $7 on this deal.
I've used those before and they are decent; but I preferred to upgrade to their Contour blades. Upgrading to the Contour blades was about $2/blade more so my total was $9 or $ 1.13/blade after rebate for 8 wiper blades - darn good deal.

Re: RockAuto: I guess if you're lucky enough to have them shipped from one location, you might get a deal. I tried to get 3 sets of wipers for 3 vehicles, but they ended up shipping from 4 different warehouses (EACH with a separate shipping charge). So a $50 purchase had $31.65 shipping.... No go for me.

Sales tax for RockAuto purchases kills them for me.
Any other sources @ similar prices?

Got 4 pairs at a total of ~$65+10 shipping (=$75) - (4 x $15 Contours) = ~$15
I was originally just looking at Amazon's prices. Thanks for pointing out RockAuto!

Thanks for the heads up I have been needing some blades and have been looking for a deal. Just got contour blades for my Honda from Rock auto $16.19 for the pair and $5.77 shipping. So after Rebate about $3.48 a blade. Sure beats full price from autozone. Plus the blades from RockAuto were about $6 cheaper per blade then Amazon. Good call OP.
How often do you need to change your wiper blades? 4 pairs would last me a decade. I doubt I'll have the same car that long. Granted I do not drive a lot.

Stupid question. Do blades "keep"? Can I buy multiple sets and store for further use or does the rubber degrade? Seems to me, as long as you keep them out of the sun, they should store ok. Did I just answer my own question?

Don't forget the RockAuto coupon code (118109789646805 entered into the how did you hear about us) for an extra 5% off.

Seems they have a PayPal option for the rebate. This is the first time I've seen this and think that it is AWESOME! Sorry if I'm just late to the party...

Has anyone tried pre-submitting the rebate via the Anco rebate website?
It seems that you need 4 submissions for 4 pairs. Is this the case?

I did this FAR deal last year to great success, but jumped on the Valvoline Gold Series wiper deal earlier this month, which was a mistake. I must say the ANCO Contour wiper blades are far superior than Valvoline wipers. I looked in my email, last year's ANCO deal was Oct 24th. I need to remember to hold off till the 24-25th next year.

They will degrade but not for years. In other words if you buy them and store in a dark cool place for 1-3 years you will be ok. If you leave them outside and/or in a hot place and don't use for 5-7years then don't buy.

It would appear that way...
Also, required for mailing is: Blade 1: Part # Circled on Receipt, Blade 2: Part # Circled on Receipt, Original Receipt, Product on Receipt
What's everyone's best guess as to 'Product on Receipt'?

Are you sure that the rebate covers shipping charges? I've done some rebates in the past and they only give you the rebate up to the actual price of the product, it cannot go over.

Thanks OP! Great deal on something that usually doesn't get changed as often as it should.
Slight rant about sizes: For my three vehicles, I need the following sizes: 19, 20, 22, 24, and 26. No overlap except for one vehicle uses 20 on both sides.

Are the Contour better than the Transform performance wise? I live in florida and it rains a lot here so I was wondering.

Thanx Breing. I completed the form but found separate rebates are to be submitted in separate envelopes. If I ordered 2 pair would I submit 1 or 2 rebate forms and in 1 or 2 envelopes, given the requirement for original receipt with each.

If original receipt is needed for each submission, there is a problem if you buy 4 pairs in 1 order. Anyone has experience dealing with this? Do we need 4 envelopes mailed separately?

Over at SD they are saying that the rebate processor claims they will adjust the mail-in submission for quantity and total rebate amount.

Thanks OP! Ordered through RockAuto for front and rear wipers for two cars and got the 5% off as well. RockAuto was definitely cheaper than Amazon for me even with shipping and tax.

Ordered 4 pairs of Profile blades for $58.95 shipped -- paid with Paypal using a Discover card so I'll get 5% c/b ($2.95) plus the $60 ANCO rebate
Decided not to use a 5% off coupon since couple people on SD asked the rebate center and they said it might disqualify the rebate -- I know people in the past never had a problem, but I didnt want to risk a $60 rebate over $2.48 (first time buying from RockAuto so not sure how the coupon is listed on the packing slip which is what we have to mail in for the rebate)

Be careful with the AeroVantage rear blades - my guess is that the rebate is listed because the AeroVantage line also qualifies for the front PAIR offer. My guess is it is not eligible for the rear $5 offer...
