ymmv if purchased coupon is accepted at all Staples.

I don't know if they will still give you the $5 off $50. If they do, you will at least break even without buying the coupons online.

My upcoming ad just shows the PNY flash drive as regular price $17.99, $8 savings, new price $9.99. Don't see the $8.99 gift card anywhere.

Edit: Also doesn't have the photo paper. Looks like it's definitely regional.

Staples rebates are never regional. Even if your ad doesn't say so, you can still file the rebate.

and you know that how ??

please advise the SKU for them,

I have done that many times. Rebates from other region's ads print out in-store and surprise the cashier/manager.

PNY 2GB USB flash drive (864659) $12.99 - $3IS - $8.00ER (Staples Gift Card) = $1.00 link
Your math here doesn't add up. $12.99 - $3.00 = $9.99. Then $9.99 - 8.00ER (Staples Gift Card) = $1.99. Why do you think the ER is $8.00 instead of $8.99 like the OP says?
Typo.

ER on flash drive is $8.99 as noted in OP.

My add doesn't have the Photopaper or the HP paper reams. bpvh's link for the photopaper is this week's ad.

The links are to the product, not to the ad, and as noted, are for informational purposes only.

What did Staples switch on their ad?

Office Depot $10 off $50 - expires 9/6/10

Office Depot $10 off $50 - expires 9/9/10

Cpn not valid on Tech items, so YMMV.

but you can still buy the paper items and use the $10 off $30 Office Depot coupon that is out there (expires 9/15/10)

If you really want the flash drive you could just buy that one item separately w/o the Office Depot $10 off $30 coupon.

The coupons state that items receiving instant rebates don't apply to reach the $50. So would this deal really work as both the paper and USB has an instant rebate attached to their deal.

wrong! the rebates are applied for online, they are not instant.

Is the guy legit?
I paid for the coupon, but never got it, and no reply either.

cmacaran said: The usb has a $3 instant savings in the deal and the HP Paper has $1.80 instant savings in the deal (on top of the easy rebates). My question is will the price after the instant savings be applicable to the coupon $50 total, or will the price of the entire item not count. The price after instant savings still totals over $50 if you include the part left over after the instant savings is taken off.

stop worrying, if your total is over $50 it's fine...and it is!

The price after the instant savings counts towards the $50

Do your local ads show all these items on sale? Thanks.

the fake $20 off $50 in-store coupon from SDer that still scanned okay this morning in my Staples was showing on my receipt as "$20 off any C & P order of $20 or more with online submission, expiry date 12/31/2010". Lucky me, store cashier didn't catch that.

roy7736 said: The paper, photo paper, and flash drive deals appear to be nationwide. The other 9-cent and 25-cent deals in some circulars this week are regional.
No, the photo paper and 2GB flash drive are not nationwide.

Just submitted SER's for these. I hadn't realized that the photo paper SER would come as a Visa gift card w/ Staaples logo on it. Happily there's the option for getting a check instead of GC since one can no longer convert Staaples rebate GC's to check by calling MetaBank. Kinda tricky how the Staaples Visa GC looks a lot like a Staaples GC so one might think that one had to use it at Staaples.
