Deal Details
This offer isn't in your Rewards dashboard. You can find it here, at the weekly ad, & scroll down:

https://www.staples.com/stores/weekly-ad

You have to click on the banner ad link (scroll down past the printers) to activate this offer. Expires 10/18/2025. (there's a code at the bottom of the T&C: 346046)

I know quite a few people don't like purchasing OEM or third party ink at Staples, but there are some people like me that _have_ to purchase OEM. Plus, this week you get 50% back in Rewards for online ink and toner purchases.

So: instead of getting 500 points for each of 6 carts ($15), you get 1000 points ($30). It's up to you to figure if it's worth it.

I followed directions but it gave me an error when trying to activate.

Oops! There was a problem when activating offers.

Thanks OP for finding the details on this offer. I saw the banner earlier when I bought some toner but there were zero specifics mentioned.

However, I am also getting the "Oops! There was a problem while activating offers." when trying to activate it.

Can you buy the ink with existing points?

Well, if you're buying the ink carts online (it appears to be cheaper than the in-store price, anyway), then definitely no: since you get 50% back in points for all ink/toner cart purchases, you'll want to avoid using points to pay.

To answer your question more specifically: I'm assuming that you can still get the 1000 points per recycled cart, even if you pay less than full price for the ink carts you purchase beforehand (whether by points or by coupon), but I suspect that you wouldn't get the 1000 points per cart if you pay for the entire cartridge with points. Probably.

Still the same "oops" error message, as of this morning.

You have to first buy the ink and when the points post to your account the offer will be activated. This offer is in addition to the regular monthly bonus as well as your normal monthly recycling limit.
