Top up your Adult Opal card with a $60 recharge and pay only $48 at Woolworths Chatswood NSW

It isn't heavily advertised in the store or online, with the price label in the photo the only evidence of the deal I saw. Therefore I have no idea about:

  • whether other Woolworths stores are having this deal;
  • when this offers ends;
  • whether Child/Concession/Seniors cards are eligible; or
  • what discount you get (if any) if you recharge by an amount greater than $60.

Also keep in mind that an Opal card can hold a maximum balance of $250, so if your current balance is $190 or greater, you won't be able to take up this offer. But you can always obtain a new Opal card and top up $60 on that card.

    if your current balance is $191 or greater, you won't be able to take up this offer.

      The correct figure is probably $190.01

    • madrooster on 06/03/2015 - 18:49

      Why would you not be able to take up this offer?

      The answer is to buy multiple $60 opal (new) cards. Link them to your existing opal account then report as lost/stolen to balance transfer the $60 to your main card.

  • bym on 06/03/2015 - 18:50

    Can anyone confirm if it's just Chatswood?

    • theone4Abargain83 on 06/03/2015 - 18:51

      I have earlier called Burwood (NSW), they don't have this offer. This sounds like another store specific offer.

  • Leuke on 06/03/2015 - 19:02

    Tried bondi junction but their opal machine wasn't working apparently…

    • elusive on 06/03/2015 - 20:05

      Funnily enough, that's what the Chatswood guys say now. I wonder if this happens often, if it's a network-wide outage, or just coincidence.

  • cynix on 06/03/2015 - 19:11

    Tried the Haymarket store, no luck.

  • roughana on 06/03/2015 - 19:15

    What?! Where is the Woolworths store in Chatswood? That's news to me.

    Shop 55 Chatswood Rail Interchange

    • uggugg on 06/03/2015 - 19:17

      When you exit the train station gates go straight ahead and up the escalators.

  • DEvok on 06/03/2015 - 19:19

    I don't understand why other stores can't match this as it's the same product and advertised for woolies, maybe show then the docket? I beleive they just don't believe you with insuffient evidence. Can op upload the docket as well?

    I do remember that woollies have the option on POS to mark it down, they just cant be bothered.

      Because it's a store special to promote that new supermarket. There's no reason for the other stores to run this promotion.

  • Senthen on 06/03/2015 - 19:36

    Ugh I just got home… If anyone else picks up the deal, try to find out the promotion's ending date?

  • elusive on 06/03/2015 - 19:46

    They say the deal is still ongoing but their machine is broken. They don't know when it ends either. The price tag is gone.

    • roughana on 06/03/2015 - 19:56

      So are they giving a raincheck? I was just about to head out there.

      • elusive on 06/03/2015 - 20:01

        Don't know, don't think so. I didn't think to ask. Maybe call them? They're not too busy right now.

        • roughana on 06/03/2015 - 20:29
          +2

          Ok, I called. They have exceeded the daily limit set by State Transit.
          Deal will continue tomorrow. Store opens 7am.

        • elusive on 06/03/2015 - 22:07

          @roughana: Oh, that's good, thanks. Wonder why they didn't say that when I asked… could've said more than "it's not working" :\

    • uggugg on 06/03/2015 - 20:03

      Probably hit the daily limit. Try again tomorrow.

  • retiredfeline on 06/03/2015 - 19:54

    Wish I'd known about this earlier in the day. But they might have other store specials so I might pop over later this weekend.

  • aec on 06/03/2015 - 20:21

    tomorrow yum cha!! :D

    My uni still doesnt have Opal. I'll have graduated by the time it gets it.

  • Zippy7 on 06/03/2015 - 22:19

    Can you buy a new card from Woolies?

    Just left the store opal is still broken and staff say they are not running the deal today

    • forumninja on 07/03/2015 - 08:03

      Damn. I was just about to take the free train trip there. Thank you!

    • Zippy7 on 07/03/2015 - 08:38

    I am waiting for 7/11 to have a opal deal . Even a free slushy

    Confirmed with epay (who supports the recharge machine) that particular terminal has exceeded the limit.

    The epay support also confirmed the store has already requested for a limit increase but the new limit won't be approved until Monday (so their Finance department will be back in office).

    PS. The limit was set to protect epay because they are not paid by merchants at the time of topup.

    • Love a bargain on 07/03/2015 - 14:54

      Does it mean it won't be available tomorrow either?

  • sarbz on 07/03/2015 - 11:05

    Is it possible to get a list of retail stores for Sydney where you can top up your Opal card?
