It looks like Staples has some competition: OfficeMax is also running a  free backpack offer!

Beginning Sunday, you can stop by any OfficeMax store and buy two backpacks and get 100% back in MaxPerks Rewards.

I’ll post all the OfficeMax Back-to-School deals tomorrow, but wanted to go ahead and give you the head’s up on this.

Thanks, Chi-Town Cheapskate!

Woohoo! It’s official! There have been rumors circulating the internet that Staples was going to have free-after-rebate backpacks next week, but it was finally confirmed in the ad preview here (click on Upcoming Weekly Ad for the details).

You can buy any backpack and get 100% back on a Staples Gift Card after easy rebate. If you were planning to buy a backpack and have some other things you need to buy at Staples in the next few months, this is a great way to get more mileage for your money!

I’ll post the full list of Staples deals on Saturday, but I just wanted to give you the head’s up in case you were planning to buy a backpack elsewhere in the next two days.

Thanks, Chi-Town Cheapskate!

I’ve posted the Staples back-t0-school deals the past two weeks and failed to tell you an important piece of information. A reader wrote in with the following and I wanted to post it in case some of the rest of you didn’t know:

Please feel free to remind  your readers that if they are a teacher and show their faculty I.D. they can get increased limits on all 1-cent and some 25-cent sale items at Staples. For example, the 1-cent folders had a limit of 5, but teachers can get 25. Glue had limit of 2, but teachers can get 25.

Does anyone know if this is also true at other stores?

Also, if you want to keep things simple, don’t forget that you can price-match any of the back-to-school deals at your local stores at Walmart. Just bring in the competitor’s  ads and Walmart will price-match any advertised price.
