Here are a couple good deals at Staples now through December 3, 2011.
First, they have a Double Double savings on all HP ink. When you spend $50 on HP printer ink in a single transaction, you can get double Staples Rewards. Normally, the rewards on ink are 10% of the purchase, but with this promotion, it will be 20% of the purchase. For example, my printer uses number 21 and number 22 cartridges. Staples sells a 4 pack, 2 of each kind, for $60.99. Normally, I would only get $6.10 in rewards, which doesn’t meet the $10 minimum to trigger the rewards. Now, with the 20% rewards, I would get $12.20, which does meet the $10 minimum. That’s the first Double. The second Double is that when you recycle old cartridges in that same transaction, you get double the amount back on those. So, instead of $2, you will get $4 in Staples Rewards for each one. You can get rewards for up to 10 cartridges in a month, so if you haven’t recycled any yet, and took in 10 when you buy the ink, you will get $40 in rewards! I think I only have 3 right now, so that would get me $12 in rewards.
Second, you can get 100% back in Staples Rewards on 16 packs of AA or AAA batteries, limit 2 packs. They are $12.99 each.
Now, I know it’s not cash back, but instead like store credit. They usually will run good sales on office items, plus, I always have a need for things like paper or the occasional flash drive. Or, if you combine offers like these and get a lot of rewards at once, you can use them to offset the cost of a larger item, like I did when I got my laptop. You do still spend the same amount of money , but you have gotten more with that money. In my case, instead of just a laptop, I had gotten a laptop, 4 printer ink cartridges, and 2 packs of batteries.
