Is this already expired today 11/8? Acme circular starts today on 11/8 so am afraid it is dead here.
I don’t see it listed under offers…

Not sure, but it wasn’t suppose to expire until tomorrow, 11/9.

It does expire tomorrow 11/9, but if it’s not already loaded to your account, it’s no longer available to be loaded.

I check my J4U accounts for new gift card offers each Wednesday when the new weekly offers come out.

Mostly on Wednesdays, but some offers come out on Fridays and Sundays (like this one).

BTW, there is a free O Organics Antioidant Beverage valid through 11/11.

@sonofzeus said in Office Depot 11/3/19 - 11/23/19 (New change of terms): $4 BACK per recycled ink cartridge (limit 10 PER WEEK) with $10+ purchase - verified on SD only one $10 purchase for entire promo period is necessary regardless of what terms say:

I’ll make my Bounty purchase/cartridge recycle visit tomorrow.

Based on the latest result, you don’t even need to make the purchase.

@my4mainecoons said in Staples 11/10-11/16/19: $4 BACK for recycled ink cartridge (limit 20 if you are a Premier or a Staples Plus member, 10 for everyonbe else):

@c3 yes, I realize that. I was thinking that I received $80 Rewards for recycling this month because they gave me credit for the $4/cart a month early. You don’t think so?

nope

Office Depot seems to be gone.

Duracell: through 12/27
K-Cups: through 12/7

The coupon code is 36139, not 31639.

The expiration date is 12/13, not 12/14.

Rewards have always “stacked” with other coupons.

@mistercheap said in Staples: Double Ink Recycle Checks for Nov Ink Carts now in accounts, stacks with current $25 off $100 offer:

expiration is bizarre that it would expire on Friday and not Saturday.

It’s confirmed on my purchase receipt.

@mrvietnam said in Office Depot 1/5 - 1/11/20: 100% back in Rewards on select Duracell batteries (Limit 4) - Easy way to get the $10 spend for January ink recycling:

Retailmenot is paying 5% cashback on Office Depot purchases.

8% now

Other than last month’s $3 bonus offer which is already fixed, I don’t remember having any issue. Almost $400 cash back since 2015.

Since this is an Office Depot thread, I’ll post it here. Someone on SD has confirmed this as well.

This seems to be a systematic issue with redeeming reward/merchandise certificates online. Don’t know about in-store behavior. Let’s say you have a $12.34 reward certificate. On the very last page before submitting the order, everything looks fine. After you finalize the order, only $12 of the $12.34 is applied to the order, and you’re left with $0.34 which is not usable. If you try to use a certificate that’s <$1, then nothing is applied to the order.

I received this email promo (YMMV):
“Earn 2% more cash back (up to $20) on grocery store and drugstore purchases* between June 1 and July 31, 2020. Be sure to enroll by June 30, 2020.”

Combined with the 2% grocery category, this should give you 4% cash back.

Barclays is at 1.00%. Don’t know when that was changed.

Also free streaming:

If you print the reward coupons from the email link, there are no such terms. I think these old terms somehow crept back in. There is an old thread here. The $100 minimum was never implemented. The online restriction did apply for a few months, but it was removed.

The enrollment deadline has been changed to 8/23.

When I recycled cartridges yesterday, I got a $10 off $20 in-store coupon on the receipt.

@axm said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

@c3 I was considering this account and held off. This is unfortunate.

All of them should drop. Just a matter of time. Ally and Marcus still have NPCD at 0.90%.

Many reviews of these alcohol wipes (not just this brand) say that they are not wet enough. You may want to add more rubbing alcohol, especially over time.

@dionaea said in Charvat v. Resort Marketing Group, Inc update:

Mine was for 25.02, which has gone into our “emergency fund”.

Four claims, Mr. Big Shot?

$25.02 / $8.34 = 3

SFGI has dropped from 1.01% to 0.81%.

New rewards are available.

If I make a purchase using the kiosk and pay at the register, is it an “instore” purchase?

Items other than Ingram Micro (IMxxxxx) should work.

Looking for a code good on a $101 purchase of a Brother laser printer drum, if anyone has one to spare. Thanks!

Generic codes are typically issued on Mondays and Thursdays, if they’re still issuing them this week.

@597404 said in Staples B&M Possible $10/20 coupon with register receipt YMMV (exp unk of coupon popping out):

I make a $0.46 purchase every time I stop at a staples.

Why? Just recycle a few cartridges at a time.

@niniss said in Cleanitize Cleaning And Disinfecting Wipes, EPA Registered, Lemon Scent, Pack Of 72 Wipes $3 shipped at OFFICE DEPOT (plus 20-25% back in rewards):

Also, I’ve never gotten any cash back from any portal when paying with rewards because the purchase total always showing as 0 (cuz rewards were treated as coupon).

That’s not my experience with OD, through Topcashback and Retailmenot. No difference paying with rewards or new money.

New $10 off $20 coupons printing at B&M, scored 2 today. Exp 1/30/2021

Thanks. Got a coupon when I recycled 5 cartridges last weekend.

New rewards are available.

Doesn’t objection to attorney’s fees generate even more attorney’s fees?

This “next day promo” does not require same transaction after all. I bought Duracell online and recycled when I picked up the batteries in the store yesterday. The recycle reward is available today. Don’t know if “same day” matters.

This offer is back for many accounts, but not all.

With the regular $30 ink purchase requirement every 7 months, and the cost of the empty cartridges, the reward to cost ratio is about 4.5:1. Not sure if this promo is worth the cost or not, if you’re not due for the $30 ink purchase requirement.

Double recycle is back next week, if you missed it last week.

Weekly promo until it reaches the 50K limit.

The coupon limit is 2 per transaction, so you can redeem 2 at the same time.

Some Amex cards have $10 back for $50 Amazon purchase, which can be combined with this one.

In case people don’t know, this can be done more than once. I used up the first $750 from yesterday and just bought another $750.

Bought the burgers at Whole Foods for $3.99 - 10% Prime discount.

@jtownsucks46 said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

Table updated with recent rate changes for all accounts.

Thanks. I didn’t realize that PenFed actually went UP, from 0.45% to 0.50%.

40% back in rewards on your purchase of $75 of ink or $175 of toner.
Online Only. Limit 12. Coupon Code: 79749. Exp 1/8/22.

I got $0.25 Ibotta rebate for the Munk bar.

Marcus 13-month no-penalty CD 0.65%

@goldsheet said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

The 0.65% no penalty CD doesn’t make any sense to me with about 10 liquid account at or above 0.65%, and rising,

I did open that NPCD because that’s the highest liquid rate among the banks I already have. Don’t really want to open accounts with new banks at this time.

Marcus savings: 0.60%, 13-month NPCD: 0.75%

@mrvietnam said in Sprouts Farmers Market: 5 Free Full-Size Products on the 1st of Every Month:

There were 3 freebies in both of my accounts.

Should have 5 available each month, but you may need to clip them quickly after they are released.

@yoregano said in US Treasury Series I Savings Bonds Inflation Rate Earnings (May - October '22) 9.62% Interest:

Glad I waited since the interest rate has increased.

I don’t think “glad” is the correct description. If you purchased in April, you would have 6 months of 7.x% and 6 months of 9.x%. Now, you don’t know what happens after 6 months of 9.x%.
