Some of these methods were more successful (and\/or more of a hassle) than others. <\/p>\n<p>By combining a few of the easier savings strategies, however, <strong>I was eventually able to get my final cost down to less than $1 per cartridge, which is consistently all I&#8217;ve paid for the past 15 years or so.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to enjoy that kind of savings yourself, just follow these three steps:<\/p>\n<h2>3 Simple Steps to Saving Big on Printer Ink<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h2>Join Rakuten<\/h2>\n<p>If you are not already using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ebates.com\/rf.do?referrerid=26HctI7%2F47duZNRZCUTudA%3D%3D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rakuten<\/a> (formerly Ebates), sign up without delay. It&#8217;s quick, easy, and completely free.  <strong>You can still shop with all your favorite online merchants, but you&#8217;ll earn cash back on every purchase<\/strong> (not only on computer ink) by going through Rakuten to do so. Plus, if you sign up with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ebates.com\/rf.do?referrerid=26HctI7%2F47duZNRZCUTudA%3D%3D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my referral link<\/a>, you&#8217;ll earn a $10 bonus after making your first purchase.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h2>Shop 123Inkjets<\/h2>\n<p>When you buy ink or toner cartridges from <a href=\"J460DW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">123inkjets.com<\/a> (whether name brand or remanufactured), <strong>you get great savings and a 100% money-back guarantee<\/strong>. If you buy in bulk, you save even more and get free shipping. And if you enter the site through an Rakuten portal, you earn anywhere from 11% to 32% cash back. Further, if you take advantage of the 123Inkjet coupon codes listed on the Rakuten page, you save an additional 15-20% off your purchase. (All these savings together drop the price on the cartridges I use to less than $2.00 a piece).<\/li>\n<li>\n<h2>Recycle through Office Depot<\/h2>\n<p>When it&#8217;s time to replace your ink, take the empty cartridges to Office Depot. They&#8217;ll credit your Rewards Account for $1 per cartridge you bring in for recycling &#8212; up to ten per month. (<strong>That drops the final cost of my cartridges to about 50-cents each<\/strong> if I buy on a double cashback day, or about $1 a piece if I purchase it at any other time). <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>And that&#8217;s all there is to it. See? No big mystery, it just takes a little planning ahead. I almost always have ink on hand (and do I ever cringe over paying regular prices when I run out!). <\/p>\n<p><strong>The color matching of the generic ink is plenty good enough for the kind of printing I do<\/strong> (at least, it was before my kids mistakenly replaced an empty yellow cartridge with a full black one. Ugh!) <\/p>\n<p>If you print a lot of photos at home, however, you may want to stick to name brand cartridges &#8212; although <strong>even brand name cartridges will cost you significantly less if you follow the simple steps above to purchase them. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:none\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Save Big on Computer Ink \" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-30097\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=100%2C100&amp;ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=600%2C600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=400%2C400&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Save-Big-on-Computer-Ink-IG.png?resize=500%2C500&amp;ssl=1 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a homeschooling, scrapbooking, list-making mother of twelve who&#8217;s been keeping calendars, planning lessons, and printing schedules for over 30 years now, I&#8217;ve gone through more than my fair share&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30097,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"3 Steps to Saving Big on Printer Ink  - How I get replacement cartridges for less than $1 each. http:\/\/wp.me\/p2G72Y-218","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[103],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7758","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-saving-money"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>3 Steps to Saving Big on Printer Ink - Flanders Family Home Life<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Want to save big on printer ink?
