There are many ways to save when shopping at Staples. 

Check in with the Weekly Ads 

Staples has weekly sales and deals that start on Sundays. Every Sunday, to get fresh deals, you should explore their latest Weekly Ad or go in-store. If you think you might have missed your last newsletter, check here. We compile all the current deals, coupon codes, and promotions currently available at Staples so that you can make great savings. 

As these sales refresh on Sundays, this is the best time to go. You will be able to find discounts on items before they go out of stock. 

Shop the bigger sales at Staples 

The most significant sale by far at Staples is the big Back to School sale that starts in July. You can get 50% off backpacks, sales on tech essentials like laptops, penny sales, and more. Take your grandkids to Staples in the summer and save on their essential purchases like a new backpack or school supplies early on. If you use your Classroom Rewards, you can even earn 20% back in rewards you can donate to your grandkids’ teachers.  

Other big sales include the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. This is a great time to upgrade your office furniture or your electronics. 

Check for coupons or promo codes before you check out 

Before you check out, you should check here for any promo codes or coupons that can be used in conjunction with your purchase. Each coupon does come with its own terms and conditions. If you don’t want to read through them, you can try the coupon to see if the system will accept it. If it doesn’t, then either the product isn’t part of the promotion or the coupon cannot be applied to already discounted or sale items.

Sign Up for Classroom Rewards 

While you are earning rewards for yourself, you can simultaneously earn rewards for teachers and schools. If you have grandkids or other school-age kids in your family tree you want to support then this is a great way to do it. In fact, signing up for classroom rewards and donating your rewards to local schools is always a smart move for everyone. 

All you need to do is download the Staples Connect app to your phone and, once you have logged in or created an account, enroll with Classroom Rewards. Every time you shop, you get 5% back in rewards that you can then donate to a teacher or school of your choice. You will even be able to see the lifetime donations you have made in the Classroom Rewards summary. 

To earn rewards, you will need to use your Rewards account at checkout, the same as you would to earn your own rewards. 

This is a good way to help support local teachers, your grandkids, and all other kids in your area and ensure that they have everything they need for a good education.
