Staples Stores DO Accept Manufacturer's & Competitor's Coupons

[pasharain]

I wanted to clear up some confusion I recently became aware of. Staples Stores DO Accept Manufacturer's & Competitor's Coupons. Staples.com DOES NOT.

Some have interpreted the following statement on Staples website incorrectly:

"Staples does not accept competitor, manufacturer or any other third party coupons."

As you will see from the context below, this statement refers to redeeming such coupons on online purchases. Staples.com currently has no way of accepting such coupons online and that is why they are not accepted. They will, however, happily accept such coupons in the store.

The following is contained under "online order support."

How do I redeem coupons on the site?



You can add coupons to your cart at any time.

1. Click on your cart in the top right hand corner.
2. Click the "Add/Edit Coupons" button at the bottom of the page.
3. Enter your coupon code and click "Add Coupon".
4. Click "Back to my order" to return to your cart.

Important Restrictions:

• Coupons are not transferable.
• Coupons may only be used once and cannot be used on subsequent orders.
