Has anyone tested the 30-day rolling limit of Staples at Plink? I have nine transactions over the last month, the first three on the 5th, 9th and 13th. I'd love to get in 2 more transactions before the deal is shut down.

Did you mean the web site will go away?

Love this... I earned 1k amazon gift cards with Plink@staple 2 months ago. I haven't done it since my last 2 months because I am working on my MS ^)^

Either you're counting-challenged or you have 34+ Plink accounts...

Or possibly before Plink had the 10 transaction per month limit?

Regardless. Sad day for Plinkers. I used this both for purchasing cards as well as other Stapling activities.

Looks like Office Depot will become a new Plink partner after Staples ends:

"Not to worry, Office Depot will be joining Plink on March 12th for all your office and school supply needs! Look for this great new offer next week. " (From an email Plink sent me.) It remains to be seen if the deal will be as good, of course.

I guess I don't care if Staples is gone.

I've been using Plink for awhile and have a decent account balance. The only redeemable gift cards not "out of stock" are junk.

Is it just me, or are they perpetually out of stock?

i'll keep checking daily and will post if and when they are finally available again...but wouldn't be shocked if they just go under.

Yeah they're more often OOS than not. Keep checking. I just redeemed on Wed.

As I think I posted before, when I start seeing things like this on one of these cashback sites, it makes me worry. No reason not to cash out ASAP. There's no point in letting these guys hold on to your money, and if they don't have the cash to restock their electronic goods, who knows how long they'll last.

They sell out quick but Ive noticed they restock fairly quickly too. Agreed though, best to cash out while you can in case something happens. Especially considering theres no price/point break for larger redemptions so theres no incentive to keep a large balance.
