Are you taking good care of your COVID-19 vaccination card? If you’re concerned about preserving it, office supply stores want to help.

Office Depot, which also owns Office Max, will laminate vaccination cards free of charge to all fully vaccinated people until Sunday, July 25.

No purchase is necessary for this service; you just need to provide the coupon code 52516714 when entering an Office Depot or Office Max store.

Staples stores will laminate the cards for free until May 1, Business Insider reported.

The CDC recommends keeping your vaccination card in case you need it for future use and taking a photo of it as a backup.
