I have a confession to make---I love office supplies. Not sure just why, but I always have. I get questions about how to get paper and ink at discount prices, so I thought I should make sure to include good discounts when I find them. Lately, I've been visiting Staples. They have a decent "Easy Rebate" system that you can register for online and submit receipts online (I like that I don't have to mail them in). The drawback is that it does take 5-6 weeks to get the checks, but when they come in, you can use them in the store for whatever you want, including more rebate items!!! That's what I did with this purchase. Here's what I bought: 2 Sharp Printing Calculators (I've been needing one of these-the other makes a nice gift) at $14.99 ea.-$14.99 Easy Rebate (limit 2)=FREE.
2 Staples Multipurpose Paper, 500 sheets at $6.49 ea.- $1.50 instant savings and $2.99 Easy Rebate (limit 2)=$2 ea.
2 Staples Pull& Seal Envelopes, 25 pk-$1 ea.
2 Bic Prite Liner Highlighters, 5 pk.-$1 ea.
2 Sharpie Permanent Markers Fine Tip, 5 pk-$1 ea.
2 Staples Mechanical Pencils, 12 pk.-$1 ea.
SUBTOTAL= $50.45
used a $10 off $50 purchase at Office Depot (yes, they do accept competitor's coupons)
used $39.00 rebate check
TOTAL= $1.56 (including tax)
And I will submit the receipts for a $35.96 rebate that will come at the end of next month.
