[Trish1953]

Anyone made copies at Kinko's with the new card they got? How much is it costing for copies?

We have to apply for the card? I thought it was just linked to a personal credit card we had to use. I want a card!

Office Depot is linked to a credit card. Kinkos has a discount card. You can get the form/application on CC, with the Pampered Perks stuff.

I haven't even applied for the Kinkos card. Their copies are more than other places to begin with. I doubt that they'll be less than Office Depot or OfficeMax's discount prices, and those two store both have locations near me.

Mine is too far away too and so I decided not to apply for the card so that HO knows that it isn't a helpful thing. I guess I should email them that as well.

What pricing for copies does the card give us?Unless it's significant, I'll go to Staples. It's closer and I like them better anyway.

 

[chefann]

There's no documentation about what price the copies are at Kinkos. That's why I haven't bothered. It's a little fishy to me that they don't want to publish that info.

Good point, Ann. That bothered me too.

I just went to Kinko's last week. I didn't have my discount card yet, but luckily they have web access. The employee had me apply for it there and then gave me the discount (she keyed it as a student discount). It is 15%. I did the walk-up copies (this includes free color paper of your choice). The cost was 13.6 cents each for double sided. The normal price was 8 cents per side.

This was more then another copy center I had used, but they moved their office and I didn't know it. I was in a hurry to get them done!

There isn't even a Kinko's near me and the closest Office Depot is like an hour away...

I know that Kinkos charges 0.49 for color copies with our discount, Office Max is 0.39 with discount....but Staples is 0.39 everyday for color. Not sure about B/W at Kinkos yet.

 

[jenniferp417]

Staples, at least near me, is 7 cents for black and white - so even with our discount, Staples is nearly the same - 6.8 cents as opposed to 7.Not worth the drive across the city.THANK YOU for the information. That helps a LOT!

Office Depot is 29 cents for color copies when you register your credit card and use it to pay - the discount doesn't show up until you swipe your card.
