I always get so jealous of your Staples & Rite Aid deals! No Rite Aid anywhere to be found around here, and Staples is about an hour away :(
I might need to come on a hounding vacation and visit Rite Aid :)
On the Staples Rewards, if you use your rewards to buy more FREE after staples rewards, will you still get back the full amount? I think I read somewhere that you will get back what you paid, not the full amount. I've never tried this before but wondered if you had and what the outcome was. Thanks!
Sam,
That's the worst, reading about some fantastic deal that you can't get yourself. Sorry!
Leah,
Nope, I've never had a problem getting back what I paid for the item. Staples is really good about stuff like that.
I do not know about the state you are in but in Massachusetts if we use staples rewards we only get back what we paid OOP. It is even stated on the front of our ads. I found out the hard way I used an ink reward to buy batteries and only got back like .99cents. Yuck. Since it was my first time Staples did a courtesy credit back.
coocoo's mom,
I've read a bunch of different (and conflicting) things about using rewards money on rewards items. I think I'm going to hang on to everything and the receipts and see how much I get back. Then I can do a return if I need to.
leah - We (MI) also don't get rewards, if we pay with rewards. Only your OOP is reimbursed. I learned that the hard way :-(
