Office Depot/Office Max is offering $20 Off your purchase of $300 in Visa gift cards, instantly. The deal starts on May 3rd and ends on May 16th. The offer is valid in store only and there’s a limit or 2 offers per customer, but this is not always enforced. Split transactions to receive the offer more than once.
The best option is to purchase 2 x $200 Visa GC cards per transaction. Doing this results in a cost of $393.90 and a net profit of $6.10.
If you have a Chase Ink card which earns 5x points, this deal becomes much sweeter. With the Ink card, the $393.90 purchase will earn 1970 UR points. So in two transactions you’ll get a total of 3940 UR points to go along with the $12.20 instant profit.
Cards may be used at all merchants where Visa debit cards are accepted. The Visa Gift Card is issued by MetaBank.
The math
Price of one card
$200 + $6.95 = $206.95
Price of one transaction (2 cards)
$206.95 x 2 = $413.9
$413.90 – $20 Rebate = Â $393.90 ($6.10 profit per transaction)
If you do the limit of two rebates, you get $6.10 x 2 = $12.20 in instant profits.
Chase UR Points
$787.80 purchase will earn 5x so you get 3940 UR points
