Maybe they brought it back, all the ones I did over the weekend were 15%

Maybe it has to do with the number of them that an account has received or redeemed. When the coupons were $10/$20 (?) my most frequently used account no longer received them vs. rarely used account continued to receive them.

Went over the weekend and received all 15% off, no $10 off $30. What are you guys recycling - I’m doing batteries. Could be regional.

So amazon returns at staples have been producing 15% off coupons, which are better than the ones you get for recycling batteries. If anyone has extras, I am interested and would be willing to trade/buy them.

that’s a matter of opinion, a $10 off $30 is a 33% discount on $30 so not sure how a 15% off is better unless you’re spending $75+.

There’s no more $10 off $30, they’re all 15% off, just the amazon returns one is better than the one you get with batteries. PM me for more info.

I received $10/$30’s when recycling on March 5 using different accounts in different stores.

“We made a mistake - here’s your $30 off coupon.”
$30/$60 with code arrived.

I only got 2 resent vs dozens of the one missing the code. And these actually expired on time unfortunately

@marvomatic thank you, my 3 months free was just ending. Was able to top off with this.

As far as shows, I really enjoyed “For All Mankind”.

@mrvietnam I have not had issues getting mine into PayPal. Why would you choose to receive a physical check?

Price is right but i bought one and they’re fairy weak

@mrvietnam said in Ink Rewards affected by Staples Program changes? Don't get cheated, obtained a good outcome, see post:

It’s a bummer this new program seems to treat each customer differently based on their histiry with Staples. I spent a lot of money at Staples over the years, but it is not reflected in my recycling offer.

I spent a ton of money within the last 6 month per account, and the results are inconsistent. Would be nice to have some guidelines.

@my4mainecoons said in Ink Rewards affected by Staples Program changes? Don't get cheated, obtained a good outcome, see post:

@dangeruss Check out the other thread. 10 carts @ 100 pts each is what a new account gets. You probably didn’t create your accounts all at the same time and the older ones got 400 pts., the newer ones 100 points.

Nope, newest account has the 400 points offer.

What are you guys on about? The program looks like it’s staying exactly the same. Unless I’m misreading the points. And now no purchase required.

I checked my account yesterday, showing I earn 100 points per cart up to 10. Are you a premier member? or plus? I’m base.

I read it the same way as MisterCheap. I am a plus member. I also don’t see anything about my plus status going away.

OK this is weird, out of 5 accounts, 3 have the 10 cartridge limit and 2 have the 20 cartridge 400 points limit. Seems very strange. Spend should be about the same, not sure if the plus or premier matters, but all these accounts should have a lot of spend.

@sonofzeus said in Dell laptop? $104.45 @amazon:

@dangeruss do you have access to the “for sale” forum on nextdoor.com ?

I do. How do you guys list stuff there?

So got mine today, reached out to them and explained that it’s missing the laptop part of the laptop. Guy gave me full refund, no need to ship it back.

Now what do I do with 2 monitors…

@my4mainecoons said in I need a new computer:

@dangeruss I have tried and tried. I’ve even tried 2 different new printers. It prints but gets hung up in space so the image is faded and smears. They’re laser jets. The images were dark and they didn’t smear when they were USB connected. Labels are particularly bad so I stopped selling on eBay!

That’s so weird… could it be the router or the driver?

@my4mainecoons could you try harder to connect wirelessly? I have a wireless printer and I’m never going back.

@bucktownboy said in Dell laptop? $104.45 @amazon:

@mtnagel Thanks for mentioning this, I was rushed today & wanted to just move on and do the return. When I went to the UPS store they were “CLOSED” today so I still have the monitor.
I’m contacting Amazon c/s now to follow up with the bait & switch…

Wow you already got yours, mine hasn’t even shipped yet.

Pictures say monitor, but title says laptop. Will probably need to return but likely will get some sort of concession.

@marvomatic thanks, subscribed. Might want to @ me next time

Yea. They lure you in with decent offers, then jack up the price after a year and cancelling is a hours long conversation.

@rhino850 I see that email now, unfortunately not the link I used, I think the link was lower. I guess we’ll see if the points come through

Just be careful with those charged lemonades, apparently several people were unalived recently after drinking them.

@mistercheap said in 2 men convicted of stealing $2,095 of stuff from Kohl's argued for lesser charges because there was a sale and they had coupons:

https://www.aol.com/news/2-men-convicted-stealing-2-112602757.html?soc_src=social-sh&

A bit ridiculous for the judge to go by sticker prices - if the items were on sale, that’s the cost of the items, the judge should be disbarred. Whether or not to allow coupons into the calculation could be up to the judge, but the store can say each item is $1M and on sale for $59.99, is the judge going to use the $1M as the price?

I’m betting a competent lawyer will take this to appeal and win.

@dangeruss said in Fetch: Redeem for $50 Albertsons gift card for only 49,050 points redemption deal is back for a limited time:

I’ve been hoarding my points. Ever since I missed the decent redemption rates last year. Is there anything decent to redeem to? Amazon/staples etc?

Depends where you shop, the Albertson’s GC’s are good at ACME in NJ/PA. Amazon is the worst thing to redeem for, sky high points. Staples isn’t too bad. but not even money exchange. Most have a 5-10% points premium (ie 52.5K for $50 or 28K for $25).

I have enough trouble hitting the spend minimums on my sears card for grocery every month, don’t really need any grocery GCs.

@my4mainecoons said in Chase Ink Business card get $900 when you spend $6000:

@dangeRuss Chase called to make sure it was a legit application. Approved. You should get your referral bonus.

Thank you! I just got one for myself too since I just hit the spend limit on the other one.

@ordeal said in Chase Ink Business card get $900 when you spend $6000:

@my4mainecoons
I believe it is currently a $400 referral bonus

I don’t think mine is, but if you have some info about the $400 referral bonus, I would love to see it.

@my4mainecoons said in Amazon Prime Get a $15 promotional credit when you spend at least $50 in promotional item(s) Household ExpUnk:

@mistercheap You only have one P&G account? 😉

It is one account per household. Hopefully P&G isn’t as anal as ActivateRewards about it, but I assume @MISTERCHEAP already maxed out all his submissions with RA deals.

There is also the Clean Fall Rebate

https://pggroceryrewards.com/promotions/clean-fall

I believe a single receipt can only go to one of these.

@my4mainecoons said in Chase Ink Business card get $900 when you spend $6000:

@dangeruss Do you get something if I use your link?

Yes, I probably will get $50 or something. If you have a CB deal you can use that instead, otherwise shouldn’t make a difference on your end, the bonus is the same.

@my4mainecoons said in Chase Ink Business card get $900 when you spend $6000:

@dangeruss Thanks, I’ll give it a try. It’s not as good as the one I have but I’d get it for the bonus then close it. Business Cash gives 5% on office supplies, phone & internet; 2% on gas and restaurants. Unlimited gives 1.5% regardless of category. I max out the 5% buying gc at Staples.

From my link you can pick the Business Unlimited or Business Cash. Same CB offer, and you can max out the 2nd card at staples. As mentioned you can have multiples of the same kind of card.

I have the MFC-2700DW myself and I love it. It takes generic toner with no problems and I can scan to my PC or my Mac.

If you don’t need the scanner function, you can get this refurb one for $85.48 and $42.74 back in rewards.

If you spend over $100 (if buying the cheaper printer you would need a filler), you can also get the NXT Keyboard and mouse for free.

@my4mainecoons said in Chase Ink Business card get $900 when you spend $6000:

@dangeruss I have a Chase Ink Business Cash card. It’s a business not a personal card. I’ve had it for ~20 years.

As long as you can do the minimum spend of $6k in 90 days, nothing should be stopping you from getting another one. YMMV on getting approved of course, but there is no limit of just having one card.

@my4mainecoons said in Chase Ink Business card get $900 when you spend $6000:

@dangeruss I have a Chase Ink Unlimited. How do you have more than one of the exact same card?

Is it business unlimited? I’m not familiar with the personal one, but at least for business you just go an apply for a new card.

@my4mainecoons said in Chase Ink Business card get $900 when you spend $6000:

When you say you’ve gotten several of these over the years do you mean that you’ve gotten several Chase Ink? I really like my Chase Ink. I wish I could do this deal.

Yea I have like 6 chase ink business/unlimited. I think before the terms said you could do this every 12 months, I don’t see that in the current terms.

Why can’t you do this deal?

This offer is usually $750, so this is pretty good deal, basically 15% back on your first $6k in spend (need to do the spend within 90 days), plus the additional 1.5% CB on any purchases with Chase Ink Business Unlimited card or 5% CB in select categories with the Chase Ink Business Cash card (you should be able to buy gift cards including VISA cards at staples and get 5% back).

You don’t need to have a registered business to get this card, as you could be doing business under your own name. There will be a credit check, but these cards don’t count towards Chase 5/24 rule.

I have gotten several of these cards over the years and this is by far my favorite card with a signup bonus.

@dangeruss said in Staples APP Users $30 off $100 coupon valid in store to 12/9:

@mistercheap I usually don’t love these offers because you need the full $100 OOP, can’t use coupons/rewards to lower your spend under $100.

Although I guess you can do PM to get your cost to $110 or so and then the $10 off $30 to get it down to $100.

If you present the $30/100 first, rewards won’t come off after? if you give the rewards first, it drops your total below $100.

I’ve used $20 rewards certs in conjunction with the $10/30 many times, never been an issue. I give the $10 off $30 first, then the $20 rewards cert.

The $100 has to be OOP spend or you won’t get the $30 reward for later, IIRC.

Another thing that works weird with rewards is the % off coupons. They used to come off first, and now they come off after all coupons and rewards (when done in store). The 10% off online coupon works correctly.

Also effective 1/1/24 BCC will now stand for Bankruptcy Cash Challenge, buy items to earn cash that you may not get at the end of the promotion. We challenge you!

That’s true. One day we may never see our BCC earnings. So you shouldn’t earn more BC from BCCs than you can afford to lose. I bet we will get the money in early January, but the money after that and their ability to pay is anybody’s guess.

All good things must come to an end. I still miss the free AR staples paper.
