Update 9/27/22: This deal is back up and running again. h/t Justin.
Update 9/25/22: It seems like this offer might have ended. The signage in-store stated that this deal was due to run through October 1, but these gift cards are no longer being discounted. It’s not clear if this gift card deal at Office Depot/OfficeMax was only meant to last a week or if it wasn’t set up correctly on their system last week. There’s a chance it might work again this week, so I’ll update this post if there are reports of it working again. h/t Justin.

Tips & Ideas
This is an excellent deal that’ll be profitable or break even on some brands. You can make it even better by paying with a Chase Ink Cash or Ink Plus card for 5x earnings and/or with a card with the Office Depot/OfficeMax Chase Offer added to it.
Interestingly, the terms don’t state a limit. I don’t know if there’s an unspecified limit of one per transaction though, so be sure to check the total at checkout if you’re planning on buying more than one card per transaction.
Thanks to anonymous for the in-store image.
Can you purchase with a visa gift card?
Of course you can. Better yet use your Chase or B of A offers for 10% back YMMV for additional savings.
Deal is dead for now, not working at any stores according to manager and a ticket to IT is in but store cannot apply manual discount.
Thanks – I’ve updated the post.
Seems as though they fixed the glitch as the deal is working again.
Awesome, thanks for confirming.
I can confirm also… I was probably at ODOM while you were posting this and I got the discount normally, although the CSR told me the system wouldn’t allow me to get the discount more than once per day. No idea if that’s true, she wouldn’t allow back-to-back transactions.
I encountered the same thing at OD trying to buy the same gift card brand twice. (Two of my Chase cards had a promotional rebate for OD purchases.) After I paid for the first one through Apple Pay, the second transaction (also through Apple Pay, but using my second card) was rejected. I ended up paying directly with the second card with no issues. My guess is that the system checks for other transactions including the sale item paid by the same cardholder name and payment type.
That would make sense. I couldn’t tell if she knew something about how the system was configured, or whether it was a made-up local policy. Last week I purchased two different on-sale cards with two different CC’s, but both using my ODOM loyalty numbers, in back-to-back transactions and had no issue.
How many can you buy/total value in the same transaction?
Some stores say $1000, others say $500 pre discount.
FYI, my normally reliable ODOM CSR is now restricting me to one card per day. That’s a change from last week even. Would be interested to hear if others saw a change in the last week also.
