Staples Deal 6/15-21/14: $20 Visa Gift Card with Purchase of $300 in Visa Gift Cards via EasyRebates

Get your office supply store cards ready, here comes our favorite Staples deal. Just buy $300 in Visa and fill out the easy rebate form online and in a few weeks you will receive a $20 Visa card by mail. I’d recommend purchasing 2x$200 cards so you get the most points or miles for the cost of the fees. Each $200 gift card has a $6.95 fee.

The Math

  • 2 x $200 gift cards + $6.95 activation fees each: $413.9
  • Use a rewards earning credit card that earns at a high rate at office supply stores (5%): $20.695
  • Use a card that is enrolled in Visa Savings Edge to get an additional 1% cash back: $4.139
  • Receive $20 Visa prepaid card after submitting easy rebate: $20
  • Unload your Visa cards using a manufactured spending unload method (e.g Evolve, Bluebird/Serve): $400

In the end you’ll make a profit of $30.934, this will be slightly higher if you use a Chase Ink Bold/Ink Plus card that earns Ultimate Rewards points which can be transferred to airline/hotel loyalty programs. As usual, the rebate is limited to 1 offer per household. You may be able to work around this by sending the rebate to a family member or trusted friend. But still your scale is pretty limited.

Will you be taking advantage of this offer? Let us know in the comments section below. This offer is valid from the 15th till the 21st of June.

Editors note: Everybody give Arielle a big congratulations on her first official post as a DoC contributor. She’ll have a great post on AmEx offers for you tomorrow. If there is anything you’d like either of us to cover let us know in the comments section.

Go to: https://www.stapleseasyrebates.com, then “find a rebate” then enter “visa” into the product keyword section. Should be the first result.
