Thanks, Bernice.

To make sure, does "stated" in question refer to "typed" if "written" doesn't work?

Technically 'written' would be incorrect since it suggests using your hand to write something out. 'Stated' fits in perfectly.

Another way to save money is to look for products that offer rebates. After buying the products, you need to fill out the rebate form. Then mail it to the manufacturer with your cash register receipt and the UPC from the product package. In four to six weeks, the company will send the stated/written amount of money to you.

Hi,

Do both "stated" and "written" fit in the above and mean about the same to you? Thanks.
