[Expired] Staples: No Purchase Fee On $200 Visa Gift Cards (9/1-9/7)

The Offer

Direct link to offer (p15)

  • Staples is offering no purchase fees on $200 Visa gift cards in store

The Fine Print

  • Valid 9/1-9/7
  • Limit 1 per customer

Our Verdict

This isn’t as good as the current Office Depot deal, but it’s hard to get enough of these types of deals (plus that deal won’t be available when this goes live). Use a card that earns at a high rate on office supply stores, American Express also has an AmEx offer for Staples.

Told of limit of 1. Asked if I can get 5 with 5 separate transactions and they allowed me after verifying DL with cc name.

I hit two stores I don’t normally visit yesterday in Oregon, one store had a “limit” of $400 on gift cards which they let me get around by purchasing to that limit on more than one CC. Neither store had the POS update that may be coming…I received the discount on multiple cards in one transaction.

I typically get “one per customer” but today I got a manager that said “one per family”. Lol. The things these people come up with cracks me up.

I didn’t plan to buy this time due to Simon mall nearby, went to the store and tried to buy 2, but cashier said one per day. Looks like more stores enforce the 1 limit now. Not worth my trip unless I am nearby

Just went to my local Staples and when they rang the GC, it showed as 200+6.95. When I told the cashier there is a promo, she said that’s not true. The funny part is that they had a big sign on the GC stand that said the fees are waived.
I showed it to them and a manager literally came and ripped it off the wall.
The cashiers and the managers were really rude and being busy now before school starts should not be a reason to mistreat people.

Probably a dumb question, but can you load these to Venmo and use as a debit card or are they treated like a credit card?

I tried the Mastercard. Was able to use one, but Venmo realised it is a GC and so didnt allow me to add another one. Was able with one though

I had this same experience. A month and a half or so later, I was able to load a few more (3 total MCGC) onto Venmo. Now, I am back being unable to load GC’s again. It may be some sort of rolling limit. You might want to try again. YMMV

The link is to the general weekly ad for NYC, I did not see any gift card mention at all.

You can change the location to your location. I’m in Chicago and the gift card is on page 15 of my ad at the bottom left.

slowbrake Not sure how one can use VGC to pay CC via phone. I just tried to pay for Discover but the automated system asked for a routing number.

the BIN is automatically rejected by biller. So definitely no.
