Thanks. Credit to Maine for first listing the deal in the Staples.com Online Savings Code thread, but also thanks MC for making it a separate thread to highlight the deal for wider viewership.

@mistercheap Ok, so I haven’t done my monthly recycle for September of 20 ink cartridges yet, getting the normal $40 ($2 per) in Easy Rewards.
So can I go ahead and do that first, then come back with an additional 10 cartridges a day or two after, and get the extra $25 in Easy Rewards?
Also planning to recycle technology (old cable) for another few $ as well this month…
-
Recycled 10x2 empty cartridges yesterday.
Now I’m tapped out.
Where can I buy more for $.50 ea?
-
@ukedog Here’s how I do it in separate back to back transactions. 1) Recycle tech. 2) Recycle 10@500 points. 3) Recycle regular monthly @400 last because its >10.
You could probably do 20 then 10 but then it will probably apply 10@500 and 10@400 (presuming that’s what you’re getting for the 20 monthly).

Where can I buy more for $.50 ea?I pay 22¢ each for 450 but that might be too many for you.

I turned in 30 cartridges and technology in one transaction and got points for everything. My regular 20 cartridges, the 10 bonus for $25.00 and the technology.

Actually, I bought carts last Black Friday time, 300 for $60 right before the Staples changes. Recycle 20 a month at OD on 2 accounts. Haven’t recycled at Staples since Feb until Aug and now Sept and hopefully Oct. Gives me a nice boost in my rewards balance going into the holidays. Not to mention, each $20 in rewards is worth $30 in value w the $10/30 Q, so its a nice deal.

@mistercheap
Do you think the $25 will work in September and October? I also recycled the first time in a while last week and got the $25. I’m wondering if I can do it again before the coupon expires on the 5th or if it’s a one time use thing.

Someone will have to be the guinea pig on Oct 1 and let us all know. Worst that happens is, you only get 50c each for the carts up to your stated max in your rewards panel.
-
Any one try this yet? Just have to recycle 1.
-
@my4mainecoons I just recycled 20 cartridges (my limit) and was credited with 20 cartridges @ 400 points instead of 10@400 and 10 @500. So, I think that if you used the coupon during Sept, it won’t work now.

I was just coming to post that people on SD have said the same. no go if you recycled on the promo in Sept.

The new cartridge recycling offer ends 11:2.
I will recycle my 10 cartridges and alkaline battery today to make my free $27.50
-
I just got back from recycling 10 cartridges and one alkaline battery on separate transactions. On my first transaction of 10 cartridges I didn’t get any coupons back, but on my second transaction of a single alkaline battery I got two $10 off $30 purchase coupons. One of the coupons says it expires tomorrow and the other coupon says it /31/24.
I was just wondering do these coupons that print out on recycling transactions if II use them on other accounts or does it have to be used on the account that it came from?
-
@mrvietnam they only print on tech recycling transactions, not on ink recycling and only 1 a month. You can use them on any account.
Regardless of the date printed they really expire 12-31-24.
I get e-receipts. Since there’s no bar code on the $10/$30 the cashier has to key in the 16 digits. I suggest that I read the number to them. It’s easier for them and they don’t see the expiration date.

I just did the same thing. I have 2 accounts, one is plus and one is regular.
On the plus account, i recycled 10 inks and just my receipt printed out.
On my regular account, I recycled 10 inks and a phone charger. a 10/30 printed out.
I then used the 10/30 coupon with the points I had on my plus account to make a purchase, no problems.
-
On a related note, I am down to only one month left iof empties. If anyone knows of any good deals on eBay for bulk empty cartridges, please share.
-
I recycled 40 ink carts & a tech item in a single transaction and received the correct number of points. I know that it was previously reported that the ink cart counting as tech glitch had been fixed. This was my first time having a cashier entered 40 as my number of ink carts.
I received 30@400 + 10@500 + 1@500 = 17,500.

@my4mainecoons Do the reward points expire?
