Staples - New Offer STARTS AGAIN May 2025 Recycle 6 ink carts at store get $15 in rewards make sure offer is activated
-
I activated a “$5 in points on your purchase, no minimum” offer on my account and made a purchase on Sunday. Anyone get this offer? How long does it take to get the $5 in the account? Thanks.

@mrvietnam this happens all the time, sometimes when they scan your barcode they scan it into the wrong field.

offer in the March 30 ad
500 points
for each cartridge you recycle in store — that’s up to $25 in savings!
i would wait until 4/1, it could overlap current offer.

It appears the Staples recycling offer has changed downwards starting 5/1/25. I recycled on my two accounts this afternoon and instead of giving 500 points each for 10 cartridges ($25 in savings), they now only give 500 points for 6 cartridges ($15 in savings). I recycled 10 cartridges and I only got 3,400 points (for a total of $17 in savings vs the $25 in savings I got last month). The other 4 cartridges they gave me only 100 points each. Recycling an alkaline battery once a month still nets you 500 points (or $5). Still a good deal as the 10 carts only cost me $2 from eBay, but not as good of a deal as it was.

I have a plus account and it still states that I get 400 points for each cartridge up to 20 a month. I’ll have to check when I recycle 26 cartridges this month

@penguin110 Same here. I’ll hold off and await your report. Thanks.

That does seem to be the current offer.
Fun fact, you can still buy the plus membership, but it won’t activate. If you’re lucky, you can convince the CSR to send a ticket to activate it, but that boat may have sailed. I was able to activate 3/4 accounts.

@penguin110 Check your offers before you recycle. There are (2) recycling offers. There’s the one that everyone gets which was previously 10@500 pts and is now 6@500 pts then there’s the personalized one. My personal one was 30@400 points/month but now its 40@500 points/month. I would’ve only recycled 30 if I hadn’t checked.
I used to get 10@500 points + 30@400 points each month ($80).
This month I’ll get 6@500 points + 40@500 points ($115).My accounts that only recycle get 6@500 points + 10@100 points ($20) per month, down from 10@500 points + 10@$100 points ($30). I don’t bother recycling the 10@100 points.
OAN: I’ve had to contact CS twice recently and each time they later sent a $10/$10 coupon valid for 6 months.

I realize that. I never said 200 points was $2.
