Free backpack at Staples... kind of.

This one is sort of complicated, so bear with me. If you're a Staples Rewards member, you can buy ANY backpack at Staples from 7/19 to 7/25 and receive the full purchase price as a rebate check. But they send out their rewards checks quarterly, so you won't get it till October. Aaaaand they're actually more like gift cards to Staples, not actual checks you can cash.

Looks like they have some cute Dickies backpacks (I like the '80s paint splatter one), so if you needed a bag anyway, I guess you may as well sign up for the free Staples Rewards program and get your gift-card rebate a few months from now. You needed ten boxes of ballpoint pens and Wite-Out, right?
