Just recycled 2x 10 empties+ 2x tech and got 2x 5500 pts.
Can I bring in another 2x 10 empties+2x tech this month and get usual paltry sum?
-
Jus this passed week one location asked for an ID and another did not.
The new policy change I am referring is stores now requiring to show ID when redeeming points.

So when you drop off cartridges to recycle, they won’t ask for an ID, right? It’s just when you redeem that they’ll ask for the ID?
-
right, i dropped off carts in the am, and you may have to deal with someone who doesn’t know whats going on, but no id.
i went back later to redeem some points, and they did ask to see me id.on the one account, i am plus. i dropped off 30 carts in one shot. employee tells me they only take 20. i said there is a bonus 10. she asks, “is that on the app”?
-
@ohsheet I recycle 40 in one shot (10 bonus + 30 regular). “My store” doesn’t say anything but I’ve been told only 20 at other stores. I educate them. One can recycle as many as one wants but will only receive Rewards for some of them. Then I show them my offers on the website.
I can’t believe that I’m paying for paper but it’s $34.99 for 10 reams today. Will use a $10/$30 to make it $24.99. Might as well start using up the Qs that expire 12-31-24.

A new offer starts Jan 5.

It looks like this time around the new cartridge recycling offer ends 2/1/25 and the battery recycling offer ends 1/25/25.

You might as well recycle a single alkaline battery while you’re there and get an extra $2.50 in rewards money.
if you’re looking for something to use your rewards money on, Staples has their store brand case water (24 count) on sale up until a week from this Saturday for $2.99 a case. Even though the $10 off $30 purchase coupon isn’t printing anymore for recycling, to get case water at Staples for three dollars a case to me is a very good deal, especially since you got the rewards money for nothing except for the price of the empty cartridges, so the water is pretty much free.

I recycle & redeem on a friend’s account (JD). I did a kiosk order for pick up at the store since I can’t ship to her and I don’t want to possibly link her account to my address. I went to pick up the items at the store tonight. Relatively new cashier asked me for i.d. to prove that I was JD. I said, “but I’m not”. He said, “well then never mind” and gave me the items. I said that it was the first time that I’d ever been asked for i.d. He said it was because the pick up screen told him to ask for it. He said that he’d seen me place the order so he knew it was ok.
After completing the pick up I recycled a battery & 10 carts on JD’s account then my 40 & a battery for my account.
-
In the terms of service, are a husband and wife, both living together at the same address, allowed to each have their own individual account? I manage my wife’s account and recycle & redeem for her.
-
@mrvietnam My friend (above) was lending me her and her husband’s accounts but when I logged into his it brought me to her account. Staples used to merge accounts but IDK if they still do.
-
My wife went to recycle, did tech, battery and ink and no $10 off $30 came out.

I have multiple accounts, and will use “incognitio” when browsing any account other than my main account.

I have a $200 balance. Any ideas for large ticket purchases that can be flipped for decent MM with stacked coupons/rebates?

Not sure I agree on printer ink, because you don’t earn the rewards when you pay with rewards and staples tends to be high.
Have to give some thought to this on what the best options may be.

Research. Years ago when HP had rebates for specific items my friend (same JD above) & I scrolled through all the eligible products looking each of them up on eBay to check their sale history. So we got the rebate and then resold the ink.
Case paper. It goes on sale on Mondays. Sell it locally. Back when cases were FASER JD & I sold them to a print shop.
Charmin, Bounty, Kleenex & Ziploc for local sale. The 3 packs of regular Kleenex are ~$5.69, ultra soft $1 more in-store. It’s ~ $5.99 at WM, $6.99 on Amazon. Look for a Kleenex coupon. Years ago they went on clearance for ~$2. I bought cases of them and used coupons. Sold them to co-workers for 50¢ for a set of 3, lol. Finally sold the last case in 2023. It doesn’t go bad.

I bought ink for resale to keep Premier status. Figure $1000 for ink, get back 50% in Rewards. Resold ink. Used the Rewards to buy more ink or other stuff for resale. I think I broke even or maybe made a profit. Having maintained Premier consistently they gave me 400 points for 30 empties/month with the new program.

Agree on case paper, easy to sell locally to a business or organization. You may not make much on it at $38 a case but it is a good way to monetize rewards AND not have the cost of Ebay fees/shipping, etc.
-
Anyone have a preferred seller for used cartridges on Ebay? It seems around 21 cents a cartridge shipped is the best going rate for around 450 carts. That would be 15 months for me, provided Staples sticks with the current program. I hate to buy too large an amount since my OD closed, and who knows what Staples is going to do in the future with recycling.
