Office Depot: Free School Supplies?

[RockyGap]

I received an e-mail from Office Depot advertising school supplies free after mail in rebate.$10.00 minimum purchase required - limit one offer per address.Valid dates 07/21 to 07/23.However my eyesight is not very good and I see pictures of pens,highlighters and two other things I can't make out and no prices for these products.Has anyone gotten this e-mail and have tried this deal? I may go to Office Depot Thursday to see what this is about. The e-mail says it is a ROP ad - I don't know what this means.Thanks.

ROP means 'run of paper' ad and it basically just means the ad can appear anywhere within the paper or elsewhere. (not your typical ad)

Thanks for the heads up, this little thing was not in my paper (or email) that I am aware of, but I'm heading there today to see if it's good in my stores. It does show online at officedepot.com and has the following items:


FREE (after mail in savings):

1" binder
Papermate expressions ballpoint pens
Wide ruled spirals
sharpie accent highlighters

ENDS TODAY!

I saw the information online. I was wondering though, if you bought all items would they be free as the total for all items would be more than $10 or if they want you to make a $10 purchase that doesn't include the rebate items?

Binder - 1.99
Papermate Pens - 3.99
Wide Rule Notebook - 2.99
Sharpies - 1.99

total = 10.96

I asked that same question of the store manager. Your purchase of $10 or more cannot include the rebate items. All rebate items must be on one receipt. I have been looking for a magnetic dry erase board to put on the refrigerator so I purchased one for my minimum $10 purchase. Rebate deal ends today, the items were not clearly marked at the store I shopped at, I had to ask for help to find the right items. Good luck
