10-second tip: get $160 of paper (3 cases) for free!
Happy New Year!
This is one of those “stock up” situations that is also a “might as well” if you’ve got the space in your garage.
Right now, Staples is offering cases of paper for $9.99 (cost after rebate). You can scoop up a limit of four boxes with this deal, but if you choose to get three boxes, you can get them completely for free.
Here’s how:
1) Add three cases of paper to your cart. Your total will come to approximately $160.
2) Click through to the payment page. You will have the option to select “Pay with Visa Checkout.” Click that tab.
Paying with Visa checkout will subtract $30 from your total cost. Note that you do NOT have to use a Visa card to get this deal – you just have to pay with Visa checkout.
3) Your new total should be approximately $130.
4) Purchase the paper.
5) Fill out three Staples Easy rebate forms to get $44 back on each box of paper, for a total of $132.
6) Voila! Free paper.
BIG hat tip to Dan’s Deals for this one. Thanks, Dan!
Its not free as you still have to pay tax. It does require you use a VISA as it verifies that and my first order was rejected. Total was $143.50- $132 you get back. $131.97 was total before tax. Still a good deal
kj – Glad you enjoyed. You can definitely use other payment options with VISA checkout – maybe a glitch in the system the first time you used it? And yes, if you purchase 4 cases, the total will be higher.
Great tip! I don’t need the paper but I am purchasing & am going to donate to a not for profit which gives me the extra bonus of a tax write off as well.
Another way to maximize is to purchase the paper through a shopping portal – I used the AA portal to get 2x points per dollar, not a huge amount of points but an additional bonus.
Lynn – Great ideas, both!
Thank Kendra, this is an awesome deal!! I was able to stack this deal with my $20 off of a $60 purchase coupon…my total came to $111.97 before taxes!!
Sandy – Yay! 🙂
oops too late! out of stock
Aw, man!
