Office Depot

Awful service & terrible management! I waited 10 minutes for help when the store had a total of 2 customers… Then when I found someone and asked them to help me she was so annoyed to help! boo this place is terrible

Since the Office Depot closed down on Oracle & Limberlost — which was a bummer — I’ve had to go to this Broadway location by the El Con Mall to have some printing done each month. Despite the longer drive for me, I like this location just as much, if not better. I actually had a bad experience or two with the printing center at the Oracle location that closed down.
This location has generally been empty every time I’ve gone in. I’ve never really had to wait in line for the regular cashiers or the printing center. The print & copy center has always delivered in terms of service and quality. They get my documents printed quickly, and the quality of the printing has been great.
The main reason I started going to Office Depot for printing is that I learned that the local branches here in Tucson offer a printing discount to current and former U of A students who have a Cat Card; the appropriately-​named «Cat Card discount.» The normal cost of a black and white single-​sided page is $ 0.10 each, but with the Cat Card discount, you get them for $ 0.03 per sheet. You may want to double check this price, and you have to ask for the discount — and remember to bring your Cat Card!
Though it’s a farther drive, I like the location because it’s right next to Target, Home Depot, and a newer Walmart (Neighborhood Market).
Great deal on the printing, no complaints!

I go here to exchange the cylinders for my soda stream and sometimes buy office supplies. The staff is very friendly and always happy to help. The store is usually pretty empty, so you never have to wait in line.

Whenever I need office supplies, I come here! The employees are friendly and always available, but more importantly, they offer discounts to Pima and U of A students and teachers! Hallelujah!

Really nothing to complain about with regards to this Office Depot. Staff were quite friendly. I’ve only ever been in here pretty early in the morning (pre-​10am) and it has never been crowded. They’ve always had what I am looking for. Proximity to places like Target and Home Depot make it a pretty good option for picking up supplies when out shopping for the workplace.
A-​ok with me!

This Office Depot is actually pretty nice. The employees are really helpful and they do have a great selection.
I always find that their prices are a bit steep for stuff, especially calendars– I went to buy my new 2012 dayplanner at the end of ’11 and it was $ 30 for a standard spiral-​bound weekly/​monthly calendar.
No joke, I went to Target and found the EXACT same one for $ 10.
Other than that, if you need a Sharpie in every color imagineable and any other obscure office supply, this is your place!

I’m going to nab every FTR I can while I still live in Tucson, in an effort to leave my legacy on the OP. But in all seriousness, this places has quite a bit going on.
1. It’s never busy.
2. There are usually friendly folks willing to help you find what you’re looking for.
3. There are HUGE signs pointing you to the stuff you’re looking for (just look up).
4. Things are smartly organized, I’ve never wandered around too long looking for something.
5. Check out is a breeze.
It’s hard for me to get too excited about a big box office supply store hence the 3 instead of the 4. But they’d send me over the moon if they felt a touch more local. Anyone know anything about their community engagement?
