How to Find Your Staples Receipt

Method 1: Find it in your Staples account (fastest for online)

If you bought from Staples.com, your receipt is saved in your account order history.

1. Sign in at Staples.com or open the Staples app.
2. Go to your orders or order history.
3. Find the order by date and open it.
4. View the itemized receipt and download, save, or email a copy to yourself.

Tip: Online orders always generate a record here, so this is the most reliable path for anything you bought on Staples.com, including print and copy jobs placed online.

This gives you a full itemized receipt with each item, tax, and total, which is exactly what you need for expense records or a tax write-off.

Method 2: Check Staples Rewards for in-store trips

Staples doesn't tie every in-store trip to you automatically, but if you gave your Staples Rewards number or linked phone at checkout, the purchase may be tracked.

1. Sign in to your Staples Rewards account online or in the app.
2. Open your Rewards or purchase history.
3. Look for the in-store trip by date and open it.

As of 2026, check what your Rewards account displays, since the exact purchase details shown can vary. Linking your Rewards number at checkout is also what lets Staples find your purchase for a no-receipt return, so it's worth giving your number every time even for small trips.

Method 3: Check your email for a digital receipt

If you opted into digital or emailed receipts, or placed an online order, Staples emails you a confirmation and receipt. Your inbox is often the quickest place to look.

1. Search your email for "Staples" plus the date or order number.
2. Open the receipt or order confirmation email.
3. View or download the itemized receipt and save it.

Method 4: Get an in-store reprint by card and date

Didn't buy online, didn't use Rewards, and didn't go digital? The store can usually still help.

1. Go to the register or customer service desk where you shopped.
2. Bring the exact card you paid with, plus the rough date and store.
3. Ask an associate to look up the transaction and reprint an itemized receipt.

As of 2026, check your store's current process, since lookup windows and steps can vary by location. For print, copy, and shipping services done at the store, ask the associate at that counter, since those transactions sometimes ring up separately from the main register.

The lost-receipt reality at Staples

Staples receipts matter more than most, because office tech and equipment often carry warranties that need proof of purchase. But in-store trips only get a digital trail if you used Rewards or an email opt-in, so a quick cash or unlinked card run can leave you with nothing but paper. That's a problem months later when a printer fails or a laptop needs a warranty claim, and the one document the manufacturer wants is a fading thermal receipt you can no longer find. For businesses, office supplies and equipment are common deductions too, so the same lost slip that blocks a warranty can also cost you at tax time. The reliable fix is to capture each receipt right away, while the paper is still readable.

Let Mylo grab your receipts automatically

Digging for a Staples receipt across orders, Rewards, and paper slips is the slow way. Mylo pulls them together: it scans your email inboxes (Gmail, Outlook, iCloud) and connects to store accounts where receipts hide, grabs the itemized version, and matches each one to the card transaction that paid for it via Plaid. For in-store paper slips, snap a photo or scan a PDF and Mylo reads it on-device. Staples, Best Buy, Amazon, and more, all in one place.

Mylo reads the merchant, date, total, tax, and line items, categorizes each receipt, keeps the itemized digital copy, and gives you full-text search, which makes finding that warranty receipt a one-search job. It works on top of the Visa, Mastercard, or Amex you already use, so there's no new card and no manual entry, with bank-grade security via Plaid. Approved expenses sync to QuickBooks. Free for individuals on iOS, Android, and web; teams are $9 per user per month with a 30-day free trial.
