Office Max is offering 100% of the purchase price back (in Rewards) on selected backpacks, totes, and messenger bags. The bags can be considered FREE after you take into account the Rewards you get back. There are no rebate forms to fill out, just make sure you enter your Rewards number at checkout and the cash back will automatically be entered into your Rewards account within 90 day – Just in time to do a little Christmas shopping! The Rewards come in a form similar to a gift certificate that can be redeemed at Office Max. You can use them on anything that Office Max carries. I use mine to buy items that I would already be buying, like printer ink.
Shop through Ebates and you will also get 3% back added to your Ebates account and you can also earn a FREE $10 gift card! (for new members). You can order the backpacks from Office Max online now! You will receive FREE shipping when you select $50 or more of merchandise. If you aren’t quite to the $50 mark, consider adding some school supplies you plan on purchasing anyway.
If you need an Ebates and/or Max Perks account start here:
- Sign up for an account at Ebates. If you are new, you will get a FREE $10 gift card for signing up, and making a $25 purchase (this deal should qualify you for the $10 gift card). You will also earn 3% back.
- Make sure you have signed up for their MaxPerks Rewards program (required to get 100% back)
Once you are signed up with Ebates & the MaxPerks Rewards program do the following:
- Head over to Ebates and search “Office Max” and click the orange “shop now” button.
- Purchase a 1 or 2 qualifying backpack. (there is a limit of 2 backpacks).
- Complete Checkout and make sure you enter your Office Max Rewards number.
Office MaxPerks Rewards will be added to your account within 90 days, these Rewards can be used at Office Max. You can use them on things you would be buying anyway, like printer ink. You could also use the Rewards to pick up some gifts for Christmas, they sell several popular electronics – this is what I did last year.





I’ve never shopped on ebates before. Does this mean if I purchase 2 bags for $100, I pay for the bags but get $100 in rewards to spend in the future on other sites?
&oumz The 100% back is being offered by Office Max, that will be in the form of Office Max rewards, it can only be spent at Office Rewards.
Ebates will give you 3% back, it will be cash that you can spend anywhere.
thanks!
