This is a little late, but I missed it since I took the long weekend off. Visit your local OfficeMax/Depot to save $15 instantly off $300 or more in MasterCard gift cards purchases. The offer is available through September 10, 2016. There’s a limit of two discounts, which can be applied to same transaction.
There is a $5.95 activation fee for $100 MasterCard Gift Cards and a $6.95 activation fee for $200 MasterCard Gift Cards. So the best option would be to buy three $200 gift cards, to maximize points. You can use you Chase Ink cards to earn 5x in UR. (Thanks KJ for correction)
If you have this Amex Offer for $20 off $100 then you can do much better. If you purchase $600 total, it will cost you $620.85 and you get $30 instant rebate and $20 statement credit from Amex.
In NYC you’ll have a tough time trying to find a OfficeMax that accepts credit cards for gift card purchases.

Contrary to your comment – Office Depots, at least in Houston, texas are carrying $200 mastercards.
Thanks Ken I’ll remove it.
Please correct and suggest best option as 3 cards of 200 where it takes $30 off the transaction 590.85 for 3 x 200 cards. If you are buying only 2 it only gives you back $1.1
thanks KJ. Changed an old post and made a mess out of it
