Can I get a list of the specific items that qualify? There is a list of the qualifying types of items. Your nearest Office Depot store can provide this list to you.

What do I do if my school is not on the store's ID list? Most schools already have an ID number assigned to them. Office Depot associates have the ability to search for your school's ID number. If the school is not in the database, they can request to have it added. After submitting your school's information, the system will update providing the new ID number in approximately 48 hours.

My company makes all office supply purchases at Office Depot and designates a school for this program. Can we find out how much credit the school has gotten from the orders we have placed? Office Depot does not keep this type of detailed information for the 5% Back to Schools Program. The generated total credit amount includes all qualifying purchases made by everyone using the school's ID number. How can I find out the amount of credits a school received? If the school has met the minimum requirement, the school is mailed a letter with their credit total within 60 days from the end of the quarter. They will know the amount at this time. Alternatively, you may contact the manager at your local store to inquire about credits received by your school. Office Depot does not publish a list of credits issued online. How does the school use their merchandise card? In Store To redeem the merchandise card at an Office Depot store, present the card to the cashier at checkout.
