I Recently Participated in a PayPal "CashBack" Promotion. How Long Must I Wait Before I Will Get My CashBack Award?

The CashBack award works much like a mail-in rebate, except that you do not need to submit anything to anyone to get it. Your PayPal account will be credited automatically at the end of an 8-week waiting period. The waiting period is required to ensure that the purchased product has not been returned.
