You beat me to this! I was just about to post this. I did this the last time they offered it and it saved me $15. And the ink is just as good as buying it new! I highly recommend it.

speaking of printer ink... do your best not to buy or to refill cheaply

buying ink from the manufacturers is basically giving them money

printer ink can cost consumers up to 8k per gallon

BTW - if you have a newish printer that you paid big bucks for - see if using refilled cartridges voids the warranty! :ohnoes:

Thanks for reminding me -

I checked with Walgreen's in Petal and they did Not have the refill equipment two weeks ago.
I talked to the Manager and he told me that he keeps requesting the equipment but the folks in the head shed keep putting him off - but he is gonna keep on trying.

So the offer excludes Canon and Epson printers. Who would want an HP inkjet printer?

I think it's cheaper just to buy a new printer than to buy ink refills. I'm serious.

I took one of our printer cartridges to Walgreens in Hattiesburg. I waited 1 hour to have it refilled, only to be told the refill "failed". They told me most of the attempts to fill the color cartridges fail.
Several other people there got the same results with theirs.

The black and white one worked.
