From today, one of 12 million Rio 2016 commemorative $2 coins to be released over the next month could make it from the Woolworths checkout to your pocket. The coins will be released exclusively through Woolworths and customers could find one in their change at the checkout.
For $2 you can pick up one of these cool looking Olympic themed $2 coins.
Available from Woolworths and the Royal Australian Mint.
Different colours starting each week:
Week 1: Tuesday 19 July 2016 - Blue
Week 2: Monday 25 July 2016 - Black
Week 3: Monday 1 August 2016 - Red
Week 4: Monday 8 August 2016 - Yellow
Week 5: Monday 15 August 2016 - Green
Week 6: Monday 22 August 2016 - Australian Paralympic Team coin and coin in folder
Or for $15 you can get the set of 5 x $2 coins in a little plastic folder (this started 27th July)
So pretty much paying $5 for the folder.
Looks pretty cool for all you coin collectors and/or Olympics lovers.
Enjoy!
Edit: Lot of people asking how this is a bargain since its $2 for a $2 coin (fair point).
While the coin is only worth $2 it has more meaning and therefore to a collector is worth more than $2.
Also you may be able to use the woolworths gift cards to get %5.25 off (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/258891) as the69thhokage suggested.
I haven't tried this though.
@Charity:
It's the same price but Australia post brings it to my door. Woolworths won't allow you to buy one more than one folder.
