Free Paper at Staples??



This is one of those deals that depend on luck as much as skill --- but if you get lucky, you can make out like a bandit.....


Staples is selling off paper reams that are in an old packaging style for $1 per ream after rebate. You are wanting a ream pictured here sellling for $6.99 in stores. You will get a $5.99 rebate back by mail per ream. There is NO LIMIT on the number of rebates you can claim. For rebate information go here and search for SKU 554638.

Now, you can make this deal even better!! Find a Staples or Office Depot coupon and use that (they accept competitor coupons as a matter of corporate policy. Just go to the website and print off a copy of the corporate policy --- take it with you in case of a manager or cashier who doesn't know their own policy)

So --- here's how to set up the deal (if you can find 8 packages of the old wrapper paper:

  • Buy 8 reams at $6.99 eaUse: $10 off $50 couponTotal Due: $45.92 before tax -- pay this out of pocket.
  • Get Back: $47.92 in rebates when you file for the rebate (you're ahead already)
  • Use your staples rewards card when you check out and you will get $4.50 in staples rewards to use later. Such a bonus!!

Final Cost: PROFIT $6.50
