It's saying it isn't a qualifying item for the maxperks bonus. Did anyone else have this problem? I just emailed MaxPerks.

Bing from Microsoft gives the best cashback. I did my Christmas shopping and got almost $175 back in 60 days. The cash back percentage changes time to time or day to day. You also need to search with certain key words at times to get better cashback at the same store for bing. e.g Sometimes Sears may have a cashback of 8% but they may have about 15% cashback on electronics on HDTV's like LG or Samsung...

Can I get them on the assorted color 12 count Sharpies or just the black ones? When I check out it mentions nothing about MaxPerks rewards for the items in my cart. Confused about MaxPerks.

However, I do help with my son's band activities. I signed up as a teacher. The only thing they ask is the name of a school. As far as I know, they do not try and verify that you actually WORK THERE. For some reason, I did not get my rewards for my purchases last quarter. I called them and they adjusted them and they were rolled over to this quarter. Right now my acct is showing almost $200 in Maxperks. I am looking foward to April. I am not a teacher. However, I do help with my son's band activities. I signed up as a teacher.
