|  Where can I find empty ink cartridges?
OfficeMax/Staples has this program where they give you a $3 credit on their card for each empty ink cartridge you bring them. So I'm trying to find as many as I can.
I'm thinking of going to some Printing Businesses, like Kinkos and digging in there dumpsters. Is it a waste of time? |

1 edit | I thought that they changed this to accept only HP and a couple of other brands.
Where can you get these? Buy new ones in the store, use them, and then take them into Staples. Honestly... I have no idea why I still read your threads. All you every want is something for nothing. |

Can I be honest here? The thought of you flailing around in a dumpster looking for entirely non-existent ink cartridges is a source of cheap laughs for me. Of course, if you don't think providing me with cheap laughs is an effective use of your time, then going dumpster-diving for ink carts that places like Stinkos invariably refill/recycle is probably a lousy idea.
As they say on Fox News: I report, you decide. |

You only get credit when buying another cartridge. You can't just bring in a truck load of empties. They have a three cartridge at a time limit.
They seem to have changed how the program works. Used to be you got instant credit against purchase price of new cartridge now it goes into your preferred customer account.
