Staples Rewards Card

Hey Guys!

Did you know that you can recycle ANY ink or toner cartridges, up to 10 per calendar month per customer and receive $2 back in Staples Rewards per cartridge. We will recycle additional cartridges but Rewards will only be issued for 10 per calendar month per customer. Your Ink Recycling Reward will arrive each month, separately from your other benefits. Limit one Staples Rewards account per address.

I just went to Staples.com and searched staples reward card and was able to fill out the enrollment online and print a temporary card. I throw these away ALL THE TIME...now I know I can make money off of my trash.
