Staples Rebate Question

I just bought the Quickbook @79.99 online from Staples and with it you get a rebate making it free. I used a coupon to lower the price, thus will i get the full $79.99 rebate, or will i get the order total price in my rebate?

Do the terms and conditions of the rebate say that the amount will be adjusted for coupon use?

I don't think so, but maybe it is written elsewhere.

Anyhow this is the info i got from the rebate form for this product:



should i be looking elsewhere?

is that all you bought cause sometimes when there is more than 1 item on the receipt they don't know what the coupon is for.

ok then it is hit or miss if they do it but they should, good luck.

lol ty
ugh now this makes it extremely difficult if I want to return one of the other orders. I was hoping the money i made from this rebate could "pay off" the other order ><

Since it isn't on the Terms and Agreements, could i argue about this [it's a waste of time yes, but still worth a shot?]

I just read this on the Promotional Details on the product page:
**While supplies last. May not be valid in combination with other offers. Offer subject to change. No cash/credit back

sigh soo confused

You will get the full amount ($79.99) back.

Staples Easy Rebates payouts generally are NOT reduced for using a coupon. This item, this rebate and this coupon are not one of the few instances where the rebate payout has been reduced for coupon usage.

THIS ^

In almost EVERY case, Staples will NOT reduce the payout due to coupons.

In the only cases that I've seen - the rebate *clearly* states "up to $xx.xx rebate". The words "up to" are key here.

In your case, you will get the full rebate amount.
