One of the advantages of working for a huge multinational corporation - if there are any - is that we get to partake of some often lucrative discounts with major retailers.
Like this one, with Office Depot. My kids' school has a financial partnership with them, where the school gets a portion of the profit on all items purchased there. So when I saw the discount program on our corporate intranet for Office Depot, I was excited.
The details on the program didn't indicate how much the discount was, so I checked their website while logged in under my company's id. Then I checked the website as an anonymous user, which would have no discounts visible.
I was rather puzzled to discover that every item I found was the same price in both views.
Except this pack of pencils. What's wrong with this picture?
That's some discount.
