Thanks Ann!

Does anyone have the HP Photosmart C4180 all-in-one? I love my HP 1210 all-in-one but want to pass it on to my mom and get a new one for myself...

How does the whole Office Depot/Max thing work with our discount? Is there an actual card you use IN either store or is it all online? I know that you can do the copy stuff. I just don't have the brain power to look again.

For OfficeMax, there's a card on Consultant's Corner (under Pampered Perks) that you'll need to print and take to the store.

For Office Depot, you'll need to register a card online and then use that card for payment. Please note: using that card will change all the items on your order to "contract pricing", which may actually be HIGHER than sale prices. If you're going to Office Depot to get items from the circular, use a different payment method for those items so you get the sale price.

So both can be printed and used in store? Are most prices quite a bit better though (unless "on sale") compared to Sam's or Wal-mart?

You don't need to print anything for the Office Depot one. Just go online (under Pampered Perks) and register a credit card. Then you use that credit card to pay for your purchases and get the negotiated prices.

You do print the card for OfficeMax. The prices seem to be pretty good - the discount percentage varies, depending on the item. You'll get the best deal on OfficeMax-branded items, when available.

Thank you! I love when others know the answers that I have no energy to find. There are some things I have a great memory for, but the discount stuff is not one of them. Thanks again!!

My favorite thing about Office Depot is the online ordering and delivery to my home! With three kids in tow, trips to places like OD are a bad idea... TOO many things (like chairs and desk and equipment with buttons) to play with!!!

What is the promo code for purchasing from Office Max this month? Is it listed under our Pampered Perks?
