To qualify for the MaxPerks Rewards, you MUST use your MaxPerks ID during the checkout process!

If you’re not a MaxPerk member, no worries…head over here to sign up or sign up at your local OfficeMax store or by calling 1-866-MAXPERKS. The MaxPerks program is open to teachers and businesses. However, ANY one is eligible for a MaxPerk’s business membership… you do NOT have to own a business to choose this option (I did verify this fact and was told by customer service that it was completely fine to sign up for a business membership even as a stay-at-home mom). How cool is that?! :)

    These aren’t the deals for St. Louis 🙁 But we do have some good ones!

  2. Corinne Char

    Also, do maxperks teachers have higher limits on deals like they do at office depot?

    • Kristi G.

      Yes, teachers have a limit of 20 on all the specials with limits. Last week I got 20 FREE composition books after spending just $5 (I actually spent $15). This week I am going to get 20 free folders. I need them! 🙂

  3. faith

    Does anyone know what the limit for the batteries is? The bonus reward ones

    • Angelia

      Limit 2. *Bonus Rewards for these offers, along with any other rewards a member may have earned during the same period, will be issued in the next statement cycle in the form of a Reward Card redeemable toward future purchases at OfficeMax®. Reward Cards expire 90 days from date of issuance, except in Florida where they expire one (1) year from date of issuance. See page 6 for details.

      • Faith

        Thanks!!

        On the Office Max home page that comes up for me, listed in my browser as “back-to-school-deals-8/12-818” the Duracell CopperTop AA or AAA Batteries, 20-pk. $16.99 get $16.98 back reads limit 1, as does the Avery Ready Index 5-Tab Color Dividers, 6-pk. $13.49 get $13.48 back. Am I missing something as I’d love to get 2 each.

  4. ellen

    How does the max perk works ? Thanks..

  5. Desiree

    Can you use the max perks rewards together, like buy several of these items, then use the maxperks rewards to buy a new office chair later?

    • suzana

      yes! keep in mind that rewards usually post at the end of month that you purchased the items (so in this case you would get your rewards towards the end of august) and you can use the rewards towards almost anything in the store!

      • Kara

        Correction: The rewards actually post the month AFTER you purchase…so in this case rewards earned this week will post sometime after September 20th-30th.
        It’s a hassle to have the delay, but if you get some rewards rolling for each month you’ll be ok.

        • Steph

          Thats what I am doing. I am piling on the rewards so I can buy a new printer. I will need to wait until very end of Sept. or sometime in Oct. but its worth it.

    • Amber

      Watch out if you are a teacher as your rewards won’t be available for sometimtes three months or more!

  6. Julie

    Can u roll rewards for example buying the batteries and next month there is the same deal can I use the last months reward to purchase them?

    • Marie

      Yes you can.

  7. Stefanie

    If I print the in-ad coupon from their online ad, will they accept it? Does anyone know?

    • Pam

      Yes they do accept it.

  8. Jen

    Can’t seem to find the promo code for the free folders. Is it in-store only?

  9. Amanda Rossman

    These deals aren’t available in Cedar Rapids IA

  10. Jennifer

    Here in WA you get 2 rulers, 2 pencil sharpeners and 2 crayons free instead of the folders. I went online and did all the penny deals after rewards and got free shipping as well as used DEAL5 to get an extra $5 off and even though it put my total below $50 I still got free shipping!

  11. Becky Coley

    My rewards are not showing on my MaxPerks account, how do I know if I really earned them or not? I am only showing one bonus reward for 6.99 probably from the batteries. But I should have had several others. Are MaxPerks rewards advertised in their regular flyer? Nothing printed on my receipt indicating what rewards I earned and nothing showed up when the items were rung up, how do y’all manage to keep track of this?
