They have a welcome offer of:
Earn 3,000 points
on your purchase of $50 or more — that's like $15 in savings!

I see the limit of ten cartridges, I used to get 20, but where do you see the point value per recycled cartridge?

What clarification? Please link to what you meant. Not what I see at all.

As a plus member, it says I'm able to recycle 20 per month. Please tell me where it says otherwise...

I see 200 points are worth a dollar. I also see 400 points per cartridge X 20 (for me) = 8000 points = $40. No change in value. I did read it may take up to 60 days for points to post.

Any other PLUS members seeing:

XXX Points
for each recycled ink cartridge. Limit XX per month, no minimum purchase required.

I guess we have to wait for that to update?

Glad to hear that. If there's no change for PLUS members, I'm relieved.

I can only see:

XXX Points
for each recycled ink cartridge. Limit XX per month, no minimum purchase required.

When I log in. Strange....

I also recycled earlier this month, and online there doesnt seem to be a way to trace that.

in the Staples Connect app, I *do* see that transaction, but I'm wondering if we'll get credit for those for THIS month, and/or if I need to recycle another batch this month under the NEW system to get credit.

Staples shouldnt have allowed the OLD system to linger till today, since many of us recycle the 1st week of the month.

We will be glad they did not, if it gets any worse.
It's better for us for them to have given us the chance to slip in before so.

My recycle has not posted in rewards section yet either but that is typical as it takes several days to post there. We will wait and see... If they do not credit me $40 in Rewards under the old program (I recycled before this), I will be chatting for my $40 Rewards courtesy cert or 8000 courtesy points if my 8000 points do not hit.

Anyone else (besides me) who has not clicked on "Accept the new terms"???
I wonder if it even matters for past recycle early this month. Probably not. At some point I will need to accept the new terms, or they will have grounds to give nothing. Just holding out for a bit until my recycle posts.

Well, my recycle (done last week) has posted to by Purchase History (usually takes 24 hours), and it says (something like) "Ink Recycling Limit".
