Update 9/21/25: Offer is live again for 9/21 – 9/27 (ht Chatan)
The Offer
Check your Office Depot/Max store for the following deal:
- Purchase $300 in Mastercard gift cards and get $15 discounted instantly at the register.
The Fine Print
- Limit 1 per household/business
- In-store only
Our Verdict
You can buy two $200 Mastercard gift cards or one $200 and one $100 Mastercard gift card. Best way to maximize is to buy three $200 Mastercards. Remember, MetaBank increased the fee on $200 Mastercard gift cards from $6.95 to $7.95.
These deals are made better when you use a card that earns at a high rate at office supply stores. Or use your Amex Business Gold card for the $20 credit. There’s also a Chase Offer for 10% back or the same with other bank offers. Also, Dosh offers 2% back, though they exclude gift cards in the terms.
