Staples Rewards program
 

I was wondering if anyone else used Staples Rewards program where you bring in an ink cartridge, and you get $2 in rewards to spend at the store (up to $20 a month)? I've heard that it used to be that you got $3, and it seems it's changing again:

"Recycle any ink or toner cartridge, up to 10 per calendar month per customer, and, if the member has spent at least $30 in ink and/or toner purchases at Staples over the previous 180 days, the member will receive $2 back in Staples Rewards per cartridge. Ink and/or toner purchases made on the date of recycling are calculated toward minimum purchase requirement. Minimum purchase requirement is net of coupons, taxes and shipping charges. We will recycle additional cartridges but rewards will only be issued for 10 per calendar month per customer."

I'll admit I took advantage of the program a bit, as I bring in cartridges from work as well. But now it looks like it's not worth bringing them in anymore unless I purchase ink from them.

Oh well, I knew it wouldn't last forever. ;)
