      Yeah that was a huge disappointment, none of the suit ties were on sale.

    another terrible sale. no good brands for mens clothes.

      Crownanchor on 02/06/2012 - 12:11

      The reason behind this is that the pricing of the premium brands is out of Myers control. These brands have independant sales and often have a sale at the same time as Myer, but the discounts will vary, but are often extended over Myers one day sales. Rhodes and Beckett is one example of this.

    Where does it say bonus $10 myer gift card when purchasing $100 gift card?

    •  
      microsnot on 01/06/2012 - 21:16

      Yup, i'm wondering where this is mentioned also. Closest thing I could find was http://www.myer.com.au/christmas-club.aspx which runs until 1st October 2012 but you have to set up direct debit.

        "Purchase must be in one transaction. Limit of $1000 per transaction".

        Confused… does this refer to the gift card purchase or the item you want to purchase using the gift cards? Eg can I buy two lots of 1000 gift cards to pay for a $2200 store item?

        • -1 vote
          cooni on 02/06/2012 - 10:16

          The gift card purchase. I'm sure getting more than $1000 worth of cards is trivial.

        microsnot on 02/06/2012 - 19:20

        Thanks for the heads up on gift cards. Ended up buying my mattress today rather than on Tuesday… Paid $4.55 more today though so I'm a little disappointed in myself but I couldn't be bothered with the crowds. Took advantage of their pay for single bed prices promo to get a new king mattress. There would have been a better percentage discount with Sealy but ended up with Dunlopillo because I liked the pocket springs better.

        Original Price (plus delivery): $4,899 + $55
        Discounted Price: $2,699 (44.91%) + $55
        Total Paid: $2,504 ($2,500 for $2,750 gift cards) + $4
        Actual Saving: $2,540 (49.45%)

        Pretty happy with the savings :)

    i dont know why they bother having sales, theres so many conditions to it, and they pretty much exclude most of the brands that are worth buying from there.

    its true the clothing selection in australia, especially for men is utterly pathetic and still charge top dollar for it. go into Myer and its like walking back in time with old levis and similar generic stuff at huge prices. I have got the odd bargain from Myer, but it always from the clearance section with an extra 75% off and its rare.

    •  
      cloudy on 02/06/2012 - 07:18

      To be fair, businesses are not established to give you bargains. Just some food for thought. I'm a happy ozbargainer that occasional bargains do come from their Myers or HVs, and pounce :) and Pounce we should on 60% off jag wallets woohoo

    saine on 01/06/2012 - 22:53

    Actually, the 20% off is ultra-useful if you're wanting a D800 and am prepared to wait for it. Melbourne City can order it in - that's what I did last week.

        20% deposit (although apparently some others got away with 10%). Word on the street is no layby on orders but I didn't ask personally.

      Someone knows if Meyer employee get their 10% discount on top?
      It would be great to have 30% OFF for this camera :-)

        Yes, you can use staff discount on top of any sales available to the public.

        swimmingtoad on 02/06/2012 - 15:29

        I think its 10% off after the reduction in price, which isn't 30%, i.e

        For example a $100 item.
        20% off $100 = $80
        - 10% team disc
        = $72 or 28%

    I can't see myself turning up to this preview night sale.
    The regular Myer service is now almost non-existent, but on a night like this with many more people in store, I couldn't bare the combination of crowds and queues.

    But some of the discounts sound good (typical to better than normal for Myer Stocktake Sale)

      Yea, I went to myer with my gf, & I noticed they were under staffed on a normal day, but I did notice there staff were helpful & invested time in customers, but it just meant the others had to wait ages for service.

        shmahoo on 02/06/2012 - 07:24

        Yeah- I'm certainly not denigrating the individual staff, who DO do their best, but the system that just means there isn't enough of them on the floor to service the expected amount of customers

        •

        I think you may have just went on a busy normal day. I went to Myer on a normal day to purchase a suit and got AMAZING service. It's really quite simple if you want great service then don't go on a sale day, if you want cheap items then go on a sale day, but don't expect the best service. You have to pick one or other you can't get both!

    superbird on 02/06/2012 - 09:43

    i just came back from the US and shopped at Macy's during their sales. If there was a sale there was no exclusions i.e. the sale would apply to hugo boss suits as well!
    We are so getting screwed over here.

    astarman on 02/06/2012 - 10:46

    how does the gift cards work?
    say i buy $400 gift cards, i get $440? but will there be a condition on when and how i use it?
    i would like to buy an ipad. so was thinking of getting myers to price match target or bigW and then using the gift cards

    •  
      s_agno3 on 02/06/2012 - 11:24

      Yes but often they wont be able to price match (it has to be above their cost price)

    •  
      cooni on 02/06/2012 - 11:37

      No condition tied to the card as payment.
      Whether you can price match or not is not related to you using the gift cards.

      •  
        Crownanchor on 02/06/2012 - 11:52

        This maybe false, as i did a price match recently and was asked how i would be paying for my purchase as part of the price match and if my purchase was going to be approved.

        I was able to price match, but not sure if it was because it was 80% in gift cards, and 20% on credit card.

        Either way was a great deal 15% off an Apple Mac, price matched DSE, with the extra 9% bonus on 80% ($10 for $100 gift card) , plus about an extra $50 bonus for Myer One ($30, for 3000 points plus $20 Silver Birthday bonus)

        Myer gives the best deal in Australia for Apple Mac, based on the gift card bonus, Myer One and price match.

          JimJim on 02/06/2012 - 15:21

          Whether you pay entirely with giftcards is irrelevant to the item and staff member, all the discounts and what not are applied earlier in the transaction, the final step is just to receive payment in whatever form/s it may be (cash, card, myer-card or gift-card).

  •  
    andrefm on 02/06/2012 - 11:29

    As far as I understood, I can buy a gift card with max. $1000 and I would get $1100. Let's saw I would like to buy a LCD TV and it's more than 4000.
    Can I buy 3 gift cards and use in one transaction? And can buy a TV with the 15% discount on 5th June and use those 3 gift cards?

          Staff members get an additional 10% off in electrical, yes. It won't be 25% off though, it'll be 15% + 10%.

    Where do you buy the Gift Cards from first?

    •  
      JimJim on 02/06/2012 - 15:22

      You can buy them from any register. Whether or not the staff member will know how to process the offer is the real issue.

        katz on 02/06/2012 - 15:39

        What's the max someone can get ? Could I buy $3000 worth and get the $300 extra?

        •  
          JimJim on 02/06/2012 - 15:57

          It's meant to be $1000 (at least in one transaction), but there is nothing stopping you from going to three registers and doing it ;)

    JimJim on 02/06/2012 - 16:04

    For anyone wondering/confused about the offer, here's a good example of how to use it to your advantage.

    Say you want to buy a RRP$3000 TV…

    1. Tomorrow, you buy $2000 in giftcards and receive $200 in bonus.
    2. On Tuesday night, you get 15% off, which takes the TV down to $2550
    3. You use your giftcards and cash/card to pay
    4. The $3000 TV actually cost you only $2350.

    If you have staff discount (additional 10% for electrical) and used that method, the TV would only cost you $2095.

    •  
      katz on 02/06/2012 - 18:00

      Is the offer valid today? I want to quickly duck in and get some vouchers now and use them on a be tomorrow.

      •  
        JimJim on 02/06/2012 - 19:18

        You can buy the giftcards tomorrow, but the offers in the OP are for Tuesday night, with the full stocktake sale commencing the following day.

      You would also get $40 back through gift cards ($20 for each $1000)

          If you signup for Myer One (free), you will earn points (2% back in the form of gift cards). So a $2,000 purchase will get 2 x $20 gift cards.

        •
