I try searching on the Office Max website by the product number, and can't find the products. What is going on?

Either the products aren't available online, or your local OM has different SKU numbers in your local ad. Check the ad online tomorrow.

😀 to the comedians above.
 
I wanted some FAR items a few weeks back, along with some misc. office supplies. As there are no B&M in my area, and the items were not available on the web site, I found a fax order form in an old OfficeMax catalog, filled in the appropriate items, and faxed it in. Within one week, 3 different packages arrived from 3 different locations - BUT IT WORKED! I also received an envelope with several coupons.

This might be a good workaround for items pulled from the website, such as HDD. To increase your chances, I would include some random office supplies at the beginning of the list.
 
Note on iconcepts rebates and workaround:

About 3 or 4 wks ago, iconcepts had some free stuff. I purchased a mouse and a hub only to find that the rebate calls for the original receipt, though it allows purchasing one of each item.

I simply checked the mouse and hub on the form, put the original receipt in, and put two UPCs into the package with enough room on the cardboard to label one "hub" and the other "mouse."

Both rebates have been approved so using one envelope seems to work well.

I think that's part of the reason a lot of people get the iConcepts rebate rejected - they don't send in the original. Although, I fail to see the difference between an original receipt and a copy....but oh well.
 
it's the 16th now at 3:20 and the products still doesnt show up

should there be a dash in between the numbers? i.e. 2015-4235 or 20154235, because when i look at the product number on the site i dont see any dashes, but it still gives me the same results....without the product indicated on this topic.
 
I went to OM in Mohegan Lake, NY and picked up a bunch of stuff FAR.

Belkin network card, keyboard, remote control, photo card paper, imation 50 pack. They had plenty of each item available, 15+ i'd say. I'm fairly certain today was the first day of these FAR promotions, ending in a few days i think.

Good luck.
 
Belkin keyboard rebate is BOGUS. On the rebate form it states you must have purchased it
in October. Lot good that does in November. Lucky for me I spotted it before I left the parking lot. Took it back in and got my $$$ back. Talk about deceptive.

FREE after rebate as long as you bought it a month ago. Watch the fine print.
 
Available online: (Stolen from FW)
20014967 Scotch Pop-Up Tape & Dispenser
20234925 Classic Keyboard
20052014 Belkin PCI Home Networking Card
20159427 Iconcepts 6-Outlet Surge w/ Modem Protection

THe others may show up later, but this may be a B&M sale. Who knows - if all else fails, drive to the store - assuming one is close to you.

Teklord - this FAR promotion lasts all week as these items are printed in the OM weekly circular (as always).

This happened a few weeks back and shows they aren't doing a good job updating their rebate forms. The listed items with rebates, but the linked forms and the ones printed in the montly rebate booklet were outdated. Since rebates are a hassle to begin with, it's a good idea you returned it.
 
One additional item for filler this week:

Cyber Acoustics 2-Piece Speaker System sku#14267161 $9.98 minus $9.00 rebate = $.98
 
I noticed that officemax and office depot advertising insert are no longer coming with my newspaper. Any suggestions?
