Topic Wiki

To find items (like this one) that are eligible for Easy Rebates that may end up being worth buying just for the points use this link.

If the status for the Easy Rebate says "Your reward has been sent" but you've never received the card or lost it before ever using it, then call 1-877-266-6483 to have Staples send out a replacement.


There are often coupons that lower the up front cost of paper that's on sale with a rebate. And other coupons, too.
Staples.com > on top menu bar - shop deals > coupons
BUT:

The coupon is now only able to work once per order! The $5 off is now being pro-rated between all the cases in the order, rather than the 4x it's put in!
To use the coupon 4x, you need to have each case checked out separately.  Which means that besides the bother at the register, you submit 4 different rebates - and you get 4 different rebate cards of $41 - instead of 1 rebate card worth $164.

I have placed 20+ orders 5 posted, the rest are pending. I just noticed that two orders placed on 10/22 are not even showing up on chase at all (even as pending). I checked the order status on staples and it says under status "processing order". Has anyone ever had this before when ordering gift cards from staples?
All of my charges seem to spend one day in limbo after they are pending and before they are processed.

That is how Chase works. I don't know why.

Portals, UR included stopped giving extra points for Staples GC purchases a few months ago.

My status says shipped on two card and it disappeared from Chase. It had previously said pending, now isn't pending or posted

$15 off $150 seems to be working fine for GC's have 6 orders in so far. U have to use MBM as it only works once per browser and once per incognito.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Just tried again to order more vgc's using the 15 off of 150 and it worked. 5 in the mail with more to come...
Not sure if it made a difference or not but my computer was reset in between my first few orders and today's.
It seems to be tied to the staples.com login. When I logged in, the coupon disappeared. If I tried to add it while logged in, it said it was used already. Checking out as guest, I was able to use the coupon.

A tip for some of you: sign up for staples texts.
I received a targeted 15% and 10% off my entire purchase online in the past month (with exclusions of course.)

Got 4 activation letters. Do I have to activate every card or is there a way around it?
