Why it matters to you
For small business owners who buy supplies regularly, this deal offers a clean way to generate extra credit card rewards.
Staples, the office supply store chain, is bringing back one of its most popular gift card promotions for shoppers looking to stack rewards. According to Doctor of Credit, the retailer is dropping the activation fee on $200 Mastercard gift cards for a limited time.
The promotion runs from October 11 through October 17, giving shoppers a brief window to stock up. There is a strict limit of 9 cards per customer during the promotional period. Shoppers should confirm the pricing on the signs at their local store before heading to the register.
Use a payment card that earns a high multiplier on office supply store purchases to maximize the return. You can also stack the purchase with an active Chase Offer if available on your account.
Holders of the American Express Business Gold card can put the transaction toward their monthly office supply credit. When activation fees disappear, every dollar saved goes straight back into your operating budget.
