    Has anyone determined if this works in Woolies yet?

      I had 2 DSE gift cards and was able to use them for an online purchase at BigW. Can't see why they wouldn't accept them at Woolies.

      I bought $500 from their last sale using my discounted wish card, and have already spent $300 in local woolworths and caltex petrol station, I think they are just rebranded wish card,

        Thank you. That's the confirmation we need.
        The writing on the back of the card certainly implies it is a rebranded WISH card. I just hadn't tried it yet.

    I used this last time to get a kindle for $90. Took 4 days for the cards to arrive.

      mskeggs on 19/12/2012 - 19:19

      Should say, I was nervous the kindles might sell out, but it was all fine (in fact they got stock in George St so I didn't end up having to traipse down to Broadway - so a few days delay helped)

      brent3000 on 19/12/2012 - 14:11

      As I said, I think they are trying to get their Ebaay account up and running, easy way is to sell giftcards and get feedback etc,

      That's my guess anyway

        quarrymaster on 20/12/2012 - 22:21

        Eventually. That pretty much makes it $120 for 360 days, 3GB per 30 days. Compares well with the $180 for 12GB over 365 days. Bit more work though. I also have a few iPads. One each for me and the missus, plus mum-in-law who really needs it as she has no other access to broadband from home.

  •  
    hsct on 19/12/2012 - 15:59

    Not sure about the previous replies, however to me it looks like a "store gift card" but not a Wish card.

    i.e. it can only be used for Dick Smith purchases, not for Woolies, petrol etc

    http://everydaygiftcards.com.au/ViewCard?cardDesignId=afb2662f-993e-43dd-9eae-8c3314f5c062&cardCategoryId=99cc17ba-cda3-489d-b375-1a7ef9e4e06d&canHaveSubCategory=False&path=%2FCardsCatalogue%3FcardCategoryId%3D99cc17ba-cda3-489d-b375-1a7ef9e4e06d|canHaveSubCategory%3DFalse

    •  
      yanman on 19/12/2012 - 16:05

      When you look on the gift card site it shows a card with the DSE picture.. you click on that and it takes you to the generic wish card site so that seems to confirm they're the same.

      •  
        ynot1985 on 19/12/2012 - 16:08

        yeah, thats the only reason I got them after seeing woolies after you clicked the card on the ds page

        •  
          josephchi on 19/12/2012 - 16:47

          I wouldn't be so sure.

          I could not use my westfield gift card at woolworths outside of a westfield shopping centre.

          The thing is just an eftpos card, but it won't be accepted.

          If it worked, I could imagine someone buying these and withdrawing the funds from an ATM.

          Anyway, I cannot find anything about the DS card being a wish card.

          But are Westfield part of that group though? Not quite the same comparison since they aren't listed on the back of everyday wish cards

          josephchi on 19/12/2012 - 17:16

          There is no evidence that this is actually an everyday wish card…

          But the way giftcards work is it really depends on the person at the counter or dodgy use at the self serve. I remember getting those free sample cards, $5 off metamucil. I saw some guys buying grain waves with it at the self service kiosks.

        •  
          wxyz234 on 19/12/2012 - 19:17

          Of course you can't but you can use it inside a westfield center. Why would you expect to use a westfield gift card outside a center?

        josephchi on 19/12/2012 - 16:59

        This probably just means they are an employee/associate of dick smith.

        Ozbargain sets you as REP if you say you are associated with DS.

        So, it's not a confirmation.
