OfficeMax/Depot has been testing a new rewards program called ‘Rewards Everything’ since February of last year. The rewards program is fairly simple, you earn 2% back on all purchases (including gift cards). Starting July 1st the program will be available to everybody and existing OfficeMax/Depot members will be automatically transferred to the new program.
At this stage it isn’t clear if they will be offering VIP status that is giving 3% cash back on all purchases when you spend $500 or more within a 365 day period during the testing stages. I think it’s more a matter of when not if they will make changes, fingers crossed it lasts. It’ll be a profitable time for those with Chase Ink Cash/Plus cards or really any card that earns at a high rate on office supply stores as you’ll be earning 5x/5% via your credit card and then an additional 2% in OfficeMax/Depot rewards.
