The giant office supply company Office Depot has been working on a NACHI member portal to be installed on our site on Friday. This is the first of this kind for Office Depot and will give all NACHI members an exclusive automatic discount on EVERYTHING Office Depot sells. Best of all… its shipped right to your door.


Coming Friday!

Thank Joe Farsetta and Chris Morrell for getting this together.

From what I understood when I helped start this thing for NACHI, the answer is a resounding “yes”.


I even use Office Depot to print my reports. I e-mail them, and in about an hour, they are done.

7 cents a page in B&W. Period.

Will it include computers? My office computer only has about 2 gb left on its 80 gig hard drive, and its about 3 years old, time to replace it.

As one of my favorite Presidents, Ronal Reagan used to say... I think I miss-spoke. After the portal goes up we will work on getting us all in-store discount cards.

So cool!!!


Thanks so much in advance!!!!!

And still there are those who refuse to (or can't) join NACHI fearing it's all for one persons pocket!!! ![icon_lol.gif](upload://zEgbBCXRskkCTwEux7Bi20ZySza.gif)

How many more reasons are you going to need?

My membership has paid for itself in soooooooooooo many ways!

Thank you to all behind and in front of the scenes.

Thanks Bill.


And again... NACHI accepted no piece of this pie though we were offered it. In fact, most vendors like Office Depot are surprised when we decline to accept any portion of the sales generated. As always, we asked that the discount be increased for our NACHI members instead.

NACHI makes no side deals and accepts no paid advertising.

I’ll add things to this as I work my way through it.


Need more spaces for the company name.

Looks like I need to create a new Office Depot account? Or can I use my existing Office Depot account?

When I try to use my existing account, it drops the 'Member of NACHI' and lists me as my other account. Do the discounts still apply?

When I just click 'Continue' on the NACHI portal, it shows 'Member of NACHI'. Then, when I click 'Buy' (or was it 'shop'), I had to sign in. I tried a new username and it found me and pulled my other account up. Going back to the above question, do the discounts still apply?

Entering through the NACHI portal does not bring up the same items as through just entering officedepot.com and logging in with username and password. Selection is more limited. Price on items were identical, does discount show later? No, went through with my other account (it would not allow me a new username) and there was no discount.

And I did not see a link into the Tech Depot through the NACHI portal.

Jerry,


I've sent your comments to Wallie Winiecki, Office Depot's Customer Integration Coordinator. I've asked her to come to the message board and answer your questions directly. If she's unable to do that for some reason, I'll post her reply.
