Through Saturday, January 13, Office Depot/OfficeMax Rewards Members can get 2 free packs of Duracell Coppertop batteries after rebate rewards! You'll get 100% back in store credit added to your rewards account. This credit can be used on anything during your next purchase.

Here are the exact steps to follow:

  1. Create a free Office Depot/OfficeMax Rewards Members account and login.
  2. Add at least one of these battery items to your cart and proceed to checkout.
  3. Select free in-store pickup if you want to keep this 100% free. Otherwise, select a shipping option to send these straight to your home.
  4. Receive 100% back in Rewards Member credit. It will become available in your online account within 5 weeks.

At the very least, you can use this credit on the next battery promo, giving you a rolling free battery offer all year long! They seem to offer this 100% rebate at least once a month.

I'm happy these are Coppertop and not Copperhead batteries. I'm 1% Indiana Jones, in that I loathe snakes. And Nazis. And I love history. Hey, look at that, I'm closer to 3%!
