This has been working now for over a year I think, but I never got around to blogging about it. I tried it again last night and it worked, so here’s the trick:
- Open Staples.com on an incognito window
- Wait for the popup that asks for an email and a phone number. Email can be whatever, but you’ll need a working phone number.
- Reply to the text with a ‘Y’
- Wait for coupon code link. You can use the coupon code on any Staples account.
No idea if this works with Google Voice or Textnow numbers. If you re-use an old phone number, the coupon code will be the same, and Staples seems to have a loooong memory. You can stop texts after you get the coupon code. All of this takes about a minute. To scale, you’ll need more phone numbers.
does this work on gift cards and visa gift cards too?
No, it’s the usual exclusions
Also you consistently get the $10 off 30 in-store coupons when you do a ups drop-off
Oh that’s nice. too bad the items I want are just online.
Can the 15 off 60’s be used on ink?
