Part 2 of Rewards Programs For Free Items
Click here to read Part 1 of Rewards Programs For Free Items

Attention Fellow Deals Seekers! Don't miss this AMAZING DEAL to receive office and school supplies for FREE! I know it's hard to believe that you can get things for free. I too thought so when I first heard about this program. I'm sure lots of you think the same thing. When it's too good to be true, it usually is! Well, in this case, it truly is TRUE. This is America and life is good! In the past, I have written about the Staples Rewards Program which earns you 100% cashback rebates on Free After Rebate (FAR) items for as part of my Rewards Programs For Free Items Series. Similiar to the  Staples Rewards Program , Office Depot gives you 100% back in their Worklife Rewards Program, which you can use to earn even more items. You can use these same rewards over and over again to purchase 100% back items when they come up.

Signing up for this program is easy and is free. They allow only one person, per household to sign up. You can sign up online at www.myworkliferewards.com or you can sign up in person in an Office Depot store. You earn rewards by using your member number when you place orders, and you can receive 10% back in rewards on ink, toner, paper and copy, print services. In addition to taking advantage of the 10% offer, they occasionally have 100% Back in Rewards offers, where they give you credit on merchandise you purchase. You just don't receive the tax or shipping back. So just make sure 
to purchase enough items for free shipping.

How Office Depot's Worklife Rewards Program Works:
You shop and earn rewards every quarter and receive your rewards (must be at least $10)
AFTER the earning period is over. Once you see that rewards have posted in your account (click on the "Rewards Status" link), you can then use the rewards to purchase more 100% back in rewards offers, or other items.

Shop & Earn RewardsOnline Rewards ReceivedPostal Rewards Received

July 1 – September 30October 15 – 31November 15 – 30
October 1 – December 31January 15 – 31February 15 – 28


As you can see below, when clicking on Get My Rewards, you can view how much is available
for rewards and the certificate number. You can either print the certificate out and use it in-store, phone in your order and give them the certificate number or simply use it online by entering the Reward Certificate and PIN number. See below where you find your Reward Certificate and 
PIN number


Often they have special offers for their members and by clicking on "My Special Offers" under Membership Benefits you can view them. Below is a picture of this.


How to check out:
1. I haven't tried this deal with a coupon code. I will and will let you know if you can get a coupon with this deal.
2. Input your Rewards Certificate Number in the "Card Number" field and the PIN number in the "PIN" field.
3. Don't forget to make sure your Worklife Rewards Membership Number is displayed in the "Member Number" field.


Look at the Table and "The Rewards Received" column above, to see approximately when your rewards Certificate will be in your account. They say in their terms that it should take about 6 weeks for the Certificate to be rewarded.

Update on Earning United & Delta Miles & Apple Gift Card Through Fidelity For My Husband


Don't miss any deals, subscribe to DealsSeeker with an email, RSS subscription or follow DealsSeeker on Twitter or Follow Me on Pinterest.


In the past, I have posted Step by Step Instructions On How To Earn 50,000 airmiles with United or American Airlines & 50,000 with Delta & up to a $500 Apple Gift Card with Fidelity. I did this for myself and received 50,000 United and Delta frequent flyer miles and a $100 Gift Card. On Flyertalk there were discussions of people getting these miles and for their spouses even though it said that this promotion was for one person per household. Also, people have been able to sign up for the Apple promotion and have the monies that they funded prior to signing up count towards their overall transfer amount. They have earned up until $500 by doing this. I decided to try this as well and thought it was time to update you.

Transactions to date:
(I signed up for Delta later than United)

American Express - The Extended Payment Option for their Chargecards

Don't miss any deals, subscribe to DealsSeeker with an email or RSS ssubscription or follow on Twitter.
Follow me on Follow Me on Pinterest



If you have a charge card with American Express, like the Premier Rewards Gold Card you can earn
5,000 membership rewards points for adding the Extended Payment Option to your card by June 30th, 2012. Normally with a chargecard you need to pay the balance in full each month. With this program you can choose specific purchases that are over $100 to pay over time. Considering that you have to pay interest, I would
add this offer to my card, but not use it.
Thanks Farside from Fatwallet for this tip!

Earn Ultimate Reward Points with Groupon & Staples


Don't miss any deals, subscribe to DealsSeeker with an email or RSS ssubscription or follow on Twitter.
Follow me on Follow Me on Pinterest


Here are two deals that can gain you more Ultimate Rewards Points, with the Groupon deal you can gain 13 points per dollar, 12 from the mall and 1 from your Chase Ink/Bold or Freedom card. With Staples you can gain up to 2 points per dollar with the mall and 1-5 points (5 being with the Ink card) with your credit card.


Groupon Deal
Buy $50 worth of Glatt Kosher Groceries from AviGlatt in Brooklyn, NY for $25, exprires July 11th
They have all sorts of delicious kosher groceries that you can purchase, but what I found really good were the prepared meals that they sell. You can have the meals shipped to you anywhere in the US, you will have to pay a seperate shipping fee of course. But this is a great option if you need to travel somewhere in the US that doesn't have kosher food. This coupon makes these meals very affordable. For instance, the Stir Fry Chicken Vegetables with White Rice only costs $9.50 with this deal. These meals come double wrapped so they can be warmed in a microwave.You may purchase 1 deal and then 4 as gifts. You can visit their website at AviGlatt.com and view this fantastic AviGlatt Groupon deal with this link (I get a referral credit). Hat tip Dansdeals.com!


Staples FAR Offer-AGAIN!
Staples is offering AGAIN the Trend Micro Titanium Antivirus 2012, Downloadable software (up to 10) at $35 each. The item number is 368658, the new rebate offer number is 12-84912. So, if you have bought this item the last few weeks you can purchase this again. This is just so great for so many of us that need those valuable Chase Ultimate Rewards Points or for those of you looking to spend for those minimums in order to get a bonus. Hat tip to FrequentMiler!

Purchase OfficeMax Products & Receive 100% Back in MaxPerks Bonus Rewards

Update: I was able to purchase these items. They became in stock and I spent $54 plus about $3 in taxes. I received free shipping since it was over $50. I already had $37 in MaxPerks so I just applied the $37 Gift Card Number with the Pin Number and redeemed my Maxperks. I paid the remainder $19 with my credit card. I'm so excited to get so many Free After Rebate items!!

Before blogging about this deal, I wanted to check these items for myself. Unfortunately, all of them are out of stock already. I only received the email from them within the hour!! I will keep checking back to see if they become available. I will write about MaxPerks soon.


More Staples Rebates

FrequentMiler posts about Staples offering more Free After Rebate (FAR) offers. Even if you purchased this item last week, you can still purchase another 10 this week, since it has a new rebate offer number. Click here for more details of this new offer.
Unfortunately, since Chase's Ultimate Rewards now offers only 2 miles per dollar for Staples.com you can gain half the amount of points. But since they are free to begin with, it's still not a bad deal.

Earn More Points with MileagePlus Shopping

Follow me on Follow Me on Pinterest


If you have a United or Continental Credit Card you have access to the MileagePlus Shopping Portal.
Going on right now they have a special for spring, where you can earn double miles at certain retailers
until March 31st.

Sears.com - 6 miles per dollars
Coupon code SEARS2012 gets you $5 off a $50 order
Coupon code SPRING35 gets you $35 off a $350 order

JCPenney - 8 miles per dollar

I know that 6 miles per dollar for Sears isn't the amazing 10 points per dollar Chase was offering for a while
at their Ultimate Rewards Mall, but it's certainly better than the 5 points they are currently offering if your main airline is United. In the past I have been able to purchase e-Gift Cards at drugstore.com and receive miles from MileagePlus, using a non-Chase credit card. So, I believe you would probably get miles for purchasing gift cards through them and then receive miles again when using the Gift Card. I would only use the coupon code when using the Gift Card. Let us know if you try this and if it worked.

Update On Staples 100% More Free Rebates at Staples - Free Ultimate Rewards Points

Sunday, I blogged about purchasing software at Staples and receiving back 100% through a rebate check. Thanks to the tip off from FrequentMiler! For some reason I could only purchase 1, and I was charged sales tax for the item. I didn't notice a sales tax charge on there when I had clicked "order". In the past, I used the same area code (a Californian one) and didn't have to pay sales tax on my orders. Not only that, I could only order 1 software download! I called Staples today to ask why a previous order didn't go through. I already called regarding this order and was told that I would get it that day. Well, the service representative said that they just needed to confirm my email address. I asked her why a downloaded order has to take
so long. She said that they are having so many orders placed on software and electronics, that they are backlogged. After that order was taken care of, I asked about the order I tried putting through on Sunday.
I told her that it would only process one, even though I wanted to order 10. She told me that one could only order 1. I directed her to the area where it states that it's 10 per customer. She gave me an explanation that
didn't really make sense to me and showed me where it now says "1 per customer" listed. I told her that
on Sunday, there was no such written statement. She told me that couldn't be the case, as they would have been notified of any changes. I think that Staples has caught on to what people are doing and is putting a stop to it all. I don't think that we will see too many offers like this in the future. See below where it now states that it is "1 per customer".






Has anyone taken a screen shot of this BEFORE they presumably changed it? 
Has anyone been able to purchase more than 1 at a time?


Update: I see that FrequentMiler has posted a screenshot from when it didn't say "1 per customer". So my memory served me correctly that it didn't say that on Sunday and the rep was completely wrong when she assumed that they would be informed if the deal was changed.

What a disappointment! I was sooo hoping to help my Mom out with her minimum spend for her Chase Sapphire! But, this doesn't surprise me.

More Free After Rebates Through Staples - Free Ultimate Rewards Points!

Don't miss any deals, subscribe to DealsSeeker with an email or RSS ssubscription or follow on Twitter.

New : I have three boards on Pinterest pertaining to travel and deals
1. Special Savings Offers 2. Miles, Points & Savings 3. Places I'd like to Go
Follow me on Follow Me on Pinterest



I have written about Staples Free After Rebates products before. There are four Free After Rebates (FAR) available for purchase at Staples.com going on right now through the 31st of March. The first two listed below are not easyrebates, but mail in rebates. You can also only order one, per software and therefore don't gain you many miles. So in my opinion, unless you want this software it is not worth your time and effort and I won't be ordering them. The second two are both easyrebates and one can order 10 of each. For some reason I was only able to order 1 item though, of the 3rd product. I will try again tomorrow. Let me know if you have luck ordering 10 of each. The 4th product is a Boxed CD. I put out a question on the Fatwallet.com Forum asking "If I order 10 of these to a store (for no sales tax) and never pick them up, will I still receive the FAR, I will let you know what answer I receive. Or, if any one of you have done this and know, please comment below.
Find below the products that are FAR. Enjoy your free points and don't forget to go through the Ultimate Rewards Mall to receive your points! If you have a Chase Ink Card use that for even more points!




After you have ordered you will get a confirmation email. Click on the link that says "Submit your rebate online at www.stapleseasyrebates.com". Your order number will be filled in, and then you will need to enter the rebate offer. This can be found in your confirmation email. Follow the instructions. When you are filling out the easyrebates make sure to click on

I would like to see other options
for my reward [Rebate Check, Staples Gift card]
and click on "rebate check" in order to receive a check that you can deposit into your bank account. They say that it will take 4-6 weeks for receive the check. Some people on Fatwallet have stated that it has taken much longer for them at time.
