    Can u roll old rewards into new rewards deals and still receive rewards?

    • Whitney

      Nope. It’s basically like your getting everything half price, you pay full price (which is typically way higher than other stores) and then a few months later you can get something without rewards for free. You can however use rewards to get something that has a rebate if you can find.

      • Vansa

        Thanks Whitney!

  2. Kristy

    Can I use the rewards to buy gift cards?

    • Dorothy

      No. Sorry

  3. Abbey

    So I buy this stuff online and I will get 100% back in rewards bucks I can spend on anything? How long does it take to get the rewards bucks?

    • shannon

      way too long. I find this program to be frustrating as it’s months til you receive the rewards. I prefer STaples much more.

    • Anne

      I’ve done the Worklife Rewards program for 2 years. We stock up on office supplies & school supplies— often to donate to teachers (and overseas soldiers. Think batteries!). We buy our computer printer ink cartridges @ Office Depot, so that’s what I use the rebate for. It works fine for us, but you do need to pay attention to the dates you’ll receive (and must use) your rewards. Not a biggie, considering you get some great stuff FREE!

      • Abbey

        I have their rewards. Is work life rewards just what it’s called or are there different “levels”?

  4. mary

    If your order is $60.00 or more by using code 45721251 (found at retailmenot) not only will you receive free shipping but $10.00 will be deducted after rewards your order will be a $10.00 money maker woohoo!!

  5. liezel

    How the office depot give a rebate?? Through check like staples or like OfficeMax?? Never try office depot before so u have no idea how their rebate work.tnx

    • Anne

      It comes to you online in about 6-10 weeks. Then, you can take the print-out to Office Depot to use for your next purchase (for a limited time). You do need to remember the dates, but hey, it’s free!

      • liezel

        Anne tnx..do I need to submit anything online?? I know OfficeMax after a month its already on my account..are they’re like the same thing?? Tnx yup free is awesome love it..is the 100% buck reward is available online too? Or u need to purchase at the store??

  6. Sara

    Anyone know if OfficeMax 100% back deals coming up? My rewards expire the end of January!

    • Julia

      I was wondering this too! I’ve been waiting for rewards, but I’m worried mine will expire before I get to use them! Is there any way to extend the expiration?

      • Jamie

        Mine too- worst case scenario- I’ll buy ink but I have over $200

  7. May

    It says limit of 2 items per member per day so does that mean I can’t buy more then 2 items even if they were different? So can’t bring the total up to 50 for free shipping, right?

    • liezel

      May limit 2 of each item per member per day..on my opinion you can buy more than two as long as that they are different item for example you buy two energizer..two Scotch.two pens..as long as that you don’t buy 3 of the same item you’ll be fine..if your not sure call costumer service.

  8. Abbey

    Ok so u have to go online to get ur reward bucks?? They don’t send emails or anything?

  9. Abbey

    Also can u get 2 pens 2 tapes and so forth…?

    • liezel

      Abbey yup as far as I understanding.. on the ads it says Limit two of each item..

  10. Lindak

    Yes, today I ordered 2 file folders, 2 hanging files, 2 bankers boxes, 1 pens and 1 tape. Total was just over $100 so free shipping. Wish I had seen the retailmenot code first!

  11. jata

    Personally I prefer the Office Max reward program since you can roll your reward. I haven’t had to fork out any cash for over a year and continue to buy supplies with the rewards.

    • Julia

      Do you know of any Office Max 100% back rewards coming up? It says my rewards are going to expire at the end of January! Or is there any way to extend the expiration? How do you make it last for years when it’s expiring?

  12. liezel

    I have no idea how the office depot reward work..love OfficeMax and staples.never tried office depot but there offer for 100% offer is good to pass up

  13. Kadanne Dunn

    So can I do 2 orders on different days of the same exact things (2 of each kind) (all rewards bucks items). Order $60 and use this code 45721251 to get free shipping and $10 off.

    Then in 8-12 weeks I get by $100 back as rewards in store credit?

    Or an I missing something?

  14. marty

    No one noticed the free pens this week? Use you $1 off BIC stationary coupons both from the internet and newspaper and your box of 12 pens are free.

  15. Tammy

    Can u use rewards in electronic things? Computers, printers etc…
