    I got the text! Thanks for posting. I don’t pay close attention to their texts since they normally aren’t great deals for me.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Yay! So happy you got it! 😀

  2. Sue

    I signed up after reading this awesome post but unfortunately didn’t receive this offer-just the $5 off $25…. ugh. Never heard of these pens but wanted to try them. Thanks Collin & Team, you guys make my day with great deals.

    • SK

      Same here 🙁 only 5 off 25

      • Kidsallgone

        Same. $5 off 🙈🙈🙈

  6. Laura

    I just got them – a bit pricey! $12

    • Allison M.

      They’re good pens though. I used Poppin before they were in stores. Love them!

  7. Gilly

    Heading there now

    • Gilly

      got it! It’s not in the pen aisle. But an aisle of staples home products. My store had green, pink, red, purple, blue, light blue, white, yellow.

      Also had a clearance section. Snagged 24 Swiss miss hot chocolate for $1.

      If you are in dtphx.

  8. Sarah

    Got the text didn’t even bother reading it until I read your post..lol!

  9. Julie F.

    If I did not receive the text.. is there a code I can give the cashier? Thank you.

  10. Michelle

    Are all the codes the same ?

    • Diane

      Yes. Codes for the pens are the same: 73057

  11. Bobbi

    I got the text right before I was heading to Staples anyway, so I picked up my free pens. That Poppin stuff is cute but expensive!

  12. k

    73057

  13. Catie

    If you need folders Office Depot has them this week in a pack of ten for $1.00 (so only 10 cents a folder). They come with brads or without, depending what you need!

  14. jess

    Does anyone have a code they’re not using thank you

    • shalini

      I do. How do i send it you?

      • Gilly

        It’s on the website.

    • Colette

      The code is the same for everyone. 73057.

  15. Jenn

    Got it! Thank you!!!!

  16. may

    anyone has a coupon link they’re not using? My store doesn’t take just the coupon code. 🙁

    • Laura

      As well they shouldn’t. You should receive the legit coupon.

    • Kidsallgone

      Says not available 🙁

      • Yoli

        Hi Kidsallgone. I was just made aware by someone I sent it to through txt. It was fine when I posted it. Not sure what happened. 😕

    • Yoli

      So the COUPON link is showing “expired” now sorry, I tried. The deal is still active to those who received the text, DON’T WANNA CONFUSE ANYONE! The coupon link to the free pens I found and posted is what expired.

  17. JANICE

    Don’t forget your .1 ream of paper

  18. Nelly

    Can anybody screenshot their coupon and send it to my email breonia808@yahoo.com. Thanks so much

    • jane

      Nelly, not sure if you know this but what you’re asking is not allowed. The coupon is only for the individual who receive it 🙂

      • Laura

        Thank you Jane.

      • Nelly

        If there not using it I see nothing wrong with it. It’s the same as sending codes to someone who ask for it on here that’s not using it. See nothing wrong with sharing if your not using it.

  19. Jay

    cool- I got it. I ignored the text and didn’t read it until I saw this. thanks

    • nicolegammeter

      Glad you got it! 🙂

  20. lorena

    Just got mine, but manager argues that is not a valid coupon. Just a heads up!!

  21. Nonebetter

    Of course I ignored the text until I saw the deets on Hip2Save-thanks! My cashier seemed unaware of the offer and as noted above they aren’t on the pen aisle, but a different aisle in a section with other Poppin stuff.

  22. Lillia

    Can anybody forward me the text thanks

  23. kristina

    can someone screen shot the coupon and send to me. i deleted before I knew what it was 🙁 taj_mom@yahoo.com

    • Nelly

      Thanks Kristina you asked the same thing I did and it was supposedly wrong. But nothing wrong with sharing if you are not using it and the coupon code is not unique.

  24. Shay

    We just went to the store to try the pens after receiving the text. They really aren’t that great. They feel cheap, definitely not worth $12! They also only come in blue and black ink. We were really hoping that they would have the same ink as the color of the pen. Alright for free though. We will donating ours since we didn’t like them.

    • Olga

      Good to know.

    • Lisa

      I went today to get the pens. Be careful when picking them out. I bought the red since my daughter needed them. Come home only to find it’s black ink. Just check on front package near bottom it will tell you what color ink it is. These are cheaply made and still can’t get over it being $12. Looked on the back and read Dreamt up in New York. Very well made in China for Poppin.

  25. Mel

    Awesome! I got the text and totally ignored it till I read this post. Hope there are some left at my store!

  26. brandice

    Where are these in the store….I couldn’t find them on the pen aisle

    • Nonebetter

      They aren’t on the pen aisle, in my store they were on the aisle before the pen aisle. In a section with other Poppin items-paper weights, organization items etc.

    • Shopper

      My store had them along the wall, after the printer paper was a little Poppin section.

  27. Melissa Rice

    Can we use the coupon more than once?

    • Melissa Rice

      Never mind, read the fine print, states one coupon per customer non- transferable.

  28. Judy Trac

    Where they put these pens?

  29. Heather

    They just resent out the coupon for anyone who might have missed it yesterday

  30. Allison M.

    I got a new coupon today with a much longer coupon code. Wonder if it’s the same again, though?? Mine is 16 digits, ending in 2603. Anyone else??

    • Turqoice

      I, too, signed up yesterday and only just got mine a few minutes ago. Code is 16-digits long as well, but not the same last 4 digits as yours, though.

    • rosana

      Got today as well different, numbers

    • Shopper

      These are unique codes, they realized a generic code was sent out yesterday and stores are almost out (or are out) already.

    • priscilla

      So I got these in the store yesterday using the text I got yesterday and now I got this 2nd text with a different number. Does that mean that I can go and get another box? Or will it recognize that it’s the same offer for the same customer?

      • Melissa Rice

        I am wondering the same thing. I think the coupon should work. It’s unique.

  31. rebeccamcedillo

    I went to my local staples to receive the free pens and they said they were out. Mind you, I went nearly immediately after I received the text (my school is right across the street, less than 1 mile). They didn’t even have a spot for the 12 pk on the shelves. Anyone else experience this issue?

    No raincheck, no substitution.

  32. Annie

    At my local all were out except in navy blue color I picked up the box and they said it is only for green and white pens . No where on coupon it says that. Couldn’t get it:(

  33. Oshea

    I went yesterday & they were out. Out of stock online as well.

  34. Sammie

    Why I don’t got free pen code?is something wrong?

  35. Sammie

    Me too ,I was text two days ago no free pens code.

  36. jan

    Disappointed. I tried to use it the day I got it and clerk said “sorry sold out”. You could try to go online when i asked about a Raincheck.

  37. jan

    I got the same response. Disappointed
