Staples Rebates Question

Yes, I did search for this, but could not find the information I was looking for. Hopefully somone here is familiar with Staples rebates and can help me out.

If there are 3 separate rebates listed for a product (i.e. 3 different rebate offer numbers), and the details for each rebate all mention the same 3 SKUs. Does this mean that you could purchase 1 item of each of the 3 SKUs, and then submit one of each of the 3 different rebate offer numbers, and get the rebate on all 3 items?

I've never seen the situation. There is normally only one rebate offer for a given product active at once. Some are limited to <x> items, there have been some that were <x> per SKU.

Here is an example: https://www.stapleseasyrebates.com/p...tml?sku=957338

All 3 rebates are related to the same product name, but each of the rebate offer numbers reference different SKUs. So could you purchase 1 of each SKU and then submit a rebate for each using the 3 different rebate offer numbers?

The example that you posted has different purchase dates for each rebate. So, if you purchased that product during those specified dates, then yes, I believe you could get the rebate 3 times.

If you look, the "purchase dates" are different - there is no overlap. I believe that if you purchase a qualifying product during the "purchase dates" that you would qualify for the rebate since each rebate number is different. So, in this case you could make 3 purchases and then qualify for the 3 rebates. The problem is that only 1 is FAR.

Good catch guys. I did not notice the purchase dates. That explains it.

The second part of my question then: So for the one rebate that is eligible right now, there are 2 SKUs listed. Could you buy 1 of each of those items and get the rebate for both, or is it a limit of 1 rebate total?

Lets look at the terms

Limit 1 rebate per name/address/household.

So as long as you don't have the rebates sent to the same address, household, or name you can get more than one. If you try to send two to the same person or place, one may be denied.

Check the purchase dates. Only one of those is active at a time.

Kaspersky frequently has rebates that take the cost to zero (not counting a stamp--NewEgg sometimes has it at rebate to $0/free shipping and they don't charge me sales tax.) It's quite easy to collect copies of it, no point in taking the risk of a rejection as it says one rebate on this, not one per SKU. <x> per SKU rebates are rare.
