The Deal
- Buy $300+ Mastercard gift cards & get $15 off instantly at Office Depot/OfficeMax.
Key Terms
- Offer valid April 7-13, 2024.
- Limit 10 per household/business.
Tips & Ideas
With both these and the periodic Visa gift card deals, the best option is to buy these in three card increments as Office Depot/OfficeMax seem to give a $15 discount for every $300 you spend. Buying three cards means you’re spending $600 which takes off $30.
Pay with a Chase Ink Plus or Ink Cash card to earn 5x. Another option is to pay with a card that has the Office Depot/OfficeMax Chase Offer loaded to it; in an ideal world, that would be an Ink Plus or Ink Cash card, but it’s still a decent bonus if it isn’t. Alternatively, Amex Business Gold cards now have a $20 monthly credit for office supply stores.

in store only?
Yes
Do they take PayPal QR code in store? TIA
I’m not sure
Where does Office Depot/OfficeMax advertise these deals? I am always weary as, unlike Staples, I never see signage or anything.
They don’t seem to do weekly ads anymore. These deals are supposed to have signage in-store, but some stores are poor about displaying it. The best thing to do is try to buy a couple and see if the price gets reduced to $398.90. If it does, you proceed with the transaction and insert your payment card; if not, just ask them to cancel.
Is there any way to buy any type of gift card from Office Depot online (either for home delivery or store pickup) and get it to track as an Office Depot purchase to be able to use the Chase offer?
Unfortunately not.
How did you find out these offers? I was in an OfficeMax yesterday buying gift card but did not see any signs about this 15 off 300 offer at all. Thanks,
I did see the sign in my store. The fee has increased to 7.95.
I saw the sign yesterday in the store.
Hello! I was in store yesterday and found out the MC fee has increased to 7.95 per card.
FYI that the newer batch of cards now have a $7.95 purchase fee, making this above cost with the discount
You can buy variables and tell them the amounts, therefore no need to buy something extra. Just get one for $200 and another for 199.xx if you want the amount to appear random.
Another option is to attempt to split payment if you’ve got the 10% back up to $11 offer on multiple Chase cards.
Any thoughts on the ethics of MS
There’s such a wide range of MS techniques that people’s line on what’s ethical and not ethical and be completely different depending on what the opportunity is.
If you’re asking more specifically about this particular deal at Office Depot/OfficeMax, it’s a promotion they advertise in-store which effectively gives you free money, so I don’t think there’s anything unethical about taking advantage of the offer.
I guess with there being a limit of one per household/business there could be debate as to whether it’s ethical to do the offer more than once. I personally have no problem ethically doing this more than once, but can completely understand if someone preferred not to do that due to their own ethical boundaries.
Anyone have any experience with whether a $600 purchase receives a $30 discount?
Matt,I did exactly that today.
Yes, i purchased $600 and received $30 off.
Double check Dosh before you head out, if it is part of your strategy. All OM/OD offers removed from my Dosh account
It says: Limit 5 per household/business. Does it mean 5 $200 gift cards? Or up to 5 x $15 savings?
After trying numerous stores, finally found an Office Depot that had the $200 gift cards. Purchased three for $593.85.
where do u liquidate these?
