Knowing what’s important to you is important to us. That way we can make your shopping experience even easier. By voicing your opinions and recommendations on products with the Staples.com community, we’ll know what’s working and what’s not. Plus, you’ll be helping other members choose products from your reviews and more.
As you contribute and work your way up the board (maybe even to CEO), you’ll become known in the Staples.com community and will be viewed as a Staples® savant – an all-knowing office supply guru. Members will look to you for advice on products. Are you ready to climb the ladder?
How does it work?
Every time you contribute to the Staples Boardroom, you’ll earn points. Not only that, you'll also make everyone else's shopping experiences easier by helping them decide on products based on your reviews.
