    Hmm not bad. Bound to be some savings on things, and it is likely I would spend $100 or more there….

    You'd be better off buying the physical cards in store which are also 10% off anything $100+, as they can be used at Woolies.

        Well, they can be used anywhere the Wish gift cards are accepted, so if you only shop at BigW and not at DM or Officeworks or Masters or Woolies Petrol or etc etc, then sure, buy this e-gift card for BigW. :P

      I don't think that's correct.

      The discount only applies to BIGW specific cards. I made the mistake of picking up a card which was usable on Woolies/BigW/etc and it didn't automatically apply the 10% discount at counter.

      • kwchaz on 21/12/2015 - 10:26

        No, I purchased a BIGW card at BIGW, paid $90 for each $100 card.
        I then walked downstairs and used the BIGW card at Woolies, and it worked fine.

        The BIGW cards are currently treated like regular Wish gift cards.

        They intentionally make it confusing. There are BigW branded gift cards that work like any Wish gift card in all Woolworths group stores. Those are the ones I got with 10% off at Big W.

        Then there are Big W store gift cards. Note the word "store". Those are the ones limited to Big W only. The e-gift cards from this deal are an example. There might be physical ones as well.

        If you buy a physical card, check the small print on the back of the cardboard. If it reads "can be used at all stores listed on everydaygiftcards.com.au", then you should be fine.

        • Scrooge McDuck on 21/12/2015 - 13:22

          If it reads "can be used at all stores listed on everydaygiftcards.com.au", then you should be fine.

          All the differently decorated Big W gift cards I checked a couple of days ago said that…

          What do the Big W only ones read? o_0

        • team teri on 21/12/2015 - 14:26

          @Scrooge McDuck: I have never actually seen a physical Big W store card. I have had a Masters store card though, that one was quite clear that it can only be used at Masters in-store or online.

  • SBOB on 21/12/2015 - 09:31

    If you have a big w nearby, still better to grab a physical gift card that can be used at all woolworths based stores, as they are currently 10% off also

    • imahapyboy on 21/12/2015 - 10:12

      is that wish card? or big w card?

    With all these 10% discounts, seems like Big W may be having cash flow issues. I'd be weary of keeping any gift cards for too long.

        Nope. However the latest I read was that Kmart was eyeing off the shop space that BigW is currently using, hoping to get BigW kicked out so they can move in. Funny, I would have thought Kmart is worse off…

        I dont think so. When you look at it 10% discount on goods is really not a big deal … most will be spent rather quickly after Christmas … clearing old stock. If Woolworths cannot offer 10% discounts once a year then they shouldn't be in business.

        • Scrooge McDuck on 21/12/2015 - 13:39
          +6

          I'd bet that Gift Cards are generally MASSIVELY profitable due to holders losing them, forgetting them, not bothering to use up the full balance, etc and the expiry date.

    • gibspmuh on 21/12/2015 - 09:38

      Whilst Woolworths still owns it I wouldn't be too concerned. It does appear that they're trying to fatten up the bottom line in advance of a sale though - lets hope they learnt from their offloading of DSE.

    • Knightelf on 21/12/2015 - 10:00

      They just appointed a new CEO. I wouldn't be surprised if she turned it around like she did with Oroton.

      The chance that Big W will suddenly go down and not honour gift cards is not very likely. I'd think Myer would go down before Big W.

    • ronnknee on 21/12/2015 - 10:16

      With all these 10% discounts, seems like Big W may be having cash flow issues.

      I agree with the speculation.

      I'd be weary of keeping any gift cards for too long.

      Why would you? Even if there's an announcement that they'll cease to exist, there will still be opportunity to use up the gift cards. Possibly convert them to WISH gift cards to use at Woolies, or maybe even MYER ones.

      They're not supposed to let you pay for gift cards with gift cards (all staff received an email about this), but if you find an inattentive shop attendant (not hard considering the Christmas rush!), you'll get away with it.

          Ouch. Never been asked for ID, and last time I bought $500 worth of cards.

          There was one time when a staff member was very cautious when serving me. I wanted to use eGift (purchased from Entertainment Book). He wanted to see if the eGifts were addressed to me (they weren't actually addressed to anyway since I bought them for myself).

        No. eWish card is better as you can use it in any woollies,bigw / Dan Murphy etc. whereas bigw gift card can only be used in bigw. I just get the ewish gift card at cashrewards website.

    • 8azinga on 21/12/2015 - 11:01

          If you can figure a way to use cash rewards then you could get another 2% back… it might mean having to use an egift card as I believe you have to pay on checkout with masters for click and collect (not 100% sure as I've never used C % C at masters).

          In any case, a good saving!

    So just went to Big W southland again, mentioned they were big w e gift cards and I wanted to purchase Myer gift cards. Got accused of fraud and that I'd go to jail. (this was from their very friendly service supervisor) and then asked to leave the store.

    Contacted Big W on their 1300 number, complaint lodged and then spoke with their gift card team. They said that you CAN purchase another store gift card with a big w e gift card as long as you are not purchasing a Woolworths group gift card.

    • maverick on 24/12/2015 - 19:55
      +1

      There are some very uneducated simple folk around. If the "supervisor" properly understood what you were trying to do, then he is seriously incapacitated. Incidentally, even the advice given by the "1300 number" is not complete. Of course you can purchase another store gift card with a Big W egift card at Big W. As for purchasing another WW group gift card, there is no prohibition in the T&C's but some people have posted that head office distributed a message to Big W staff to not authorise those transactions. Either way, it is NOT an issue of fraud - just an issue of interpretation of the T&C's and implementation or non-implementation of head office policy. Note: The whole issue only arises because BigW offered a 10% in-store discount on its cards for the week leading up to Christmas. Without that one-off week, where BigW tried to heavily capitalise on the biggest shopping week of the year, the entire thing would be a non-issue. And with the type of numbers being bandied around, they look to have created a lot of demand that otherwise would not have been there.

  • chrisoz on 24/12/2015 - 20:38

    so had a look at the T&C's and they really are quite vague on some details. There's nothing about its against the policy to purchase another gift card, just can't be used for certain instore items like DVD hire, photo's etc and payment of wow money credit cards.

    I'll be curious to see what feedback I get from the complaint, usually id just take it on the shoulder but when a supervisor decides to step the line and accuse someon of committing fraud and they'd go to jail for it, yeah might follow this one up.

    Funny thing is, she said that the person that served me yesterday would need to be retrained, appears it would be her on customer service and gift card rules.

    • maverick on 26/12/2015 - 16:17

      also see the discussion here https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/226232#comment-3310847

      …but I don't think they'll care much. It's one of those issues where the "supervisor" was incorrect and totally out of line but the policy of not wanting customers to buy discount gift cards with discount gift cards is understandable in certain situations. It wouldn't be hard at their end to implement such a policy into the system nor to make the T&C's clear - if that's what they want to do.
