Employer rebate of $3,000

I just found out on Friday that my employer, Bank of America, has a hybrid discount program to encourage the purchase of a hybrid auto. All you have to do is fax in a bill of sale, showing that the employee is at least one of the buyers & within 90 days, a $3,000 rebate will be added to your paycheck. Of course it's taxed like other income but hey, it's still $3,000. I'd have never known about this if a co-worker hadn't stumbled across it & then clued me in. I got to thinking that perhaps other employers are doing the same so you might want to check it out. BofA has it running through the end of 2009 & it applies to a huge list of hybrids, even the Lexus!
