Spend $150 in Visa or Mastercards and get $10 back at Staples 11/6-11/12

Quote from zune444 : In upcoming ad for Staples 11/6-11/12, it says that you buy $150 in Visa or Mastercard and gert 410 back after Easy rebate. I believe if you buy $200 visa gift card, the fee is 4.95, so you end up making $5.05 Not a great saving, but still its some amount of savings

Thanks, although for myself, tying up $200 in Visa cards to make $5 isn't worth it to me. I wish they'd bring back the regular gift card deal where you bought $100 and got $10. I got a bunch of gas cards when they had that.

This offer is regional. Not on my page 6 like it is for 30097 zip code.

If you have some Amex, Visa, mastercards gift cards sitting around then you can roll them over and make some bucks.....

I dont think its worth using your credit card to buy them...

Last I checked they do NOT sell $200 Visa MC prepaids at Staples

I'm seeing cards that can be freely loaded with up to $500 at grocery stores such as Kroger now. The fee is $5.95 even if you load up the max, $500. Does Staples sell such cards, or must we buy a $100 card and a $50 card, paying ~5.95 + 4.95 in fees to get the $10 rebate?

5/200=0.025=2.5% savings? no thanks

just use coupons or something instead

It's not in my ad. Too bad, because I have a bunch of prepaid rebate debit cards that I could have used up to buy the $150 GC. Has anyone tried to do this deal at a store which didn't have the deal in the ad? If so, did the rebate still print out at the register?

I went to a Staples store today that didn't have this deal in the ad. There were signs advertising the rebate right above the gift card display. They only sell cards in $25, $50, and $100 increments, so the cheapest fee you can spend (for $150 total) is $4.95 + $5.95 = $10.90. I wanted to purchase three $100 cards ($5.95 fee each) and asked the manager (before I made the purchase) if I would get a $20 rebate for buying $300 in cards. He said yes after he looked in his book and found that the rebate limit is 10. So I made the purchase but the rebate form said I was only eligible for 1 $10 rebate and that the rebate terms are actually "buy $150 or more in Visa or MC gift cards". The signs in the store didn't say "or more", so I got the manager to give me a $10 courtesy coupon to make up for the 2nd rebate that I didn't get. So unfortunately there's no way to make money on this, since you will only get 1 rebate per transaction of $150 or more in gift cards.

200 visa card fee isnt 4.95. Someone told me it's almost 7 bucks.
