    Obviously a cheap imitation of the Jackson 5. It’s even in black too. SMH.

      Maybe they are including Janet.

        Name checks out

      • +8

        I think Janet and Michael are the 2 Spaced Sockets.

          That can apply on multiple levels, they were the more reality challenged ones or they were the ones with successful solo careers.

          Well these are sockets, so, you know.

        • @try2bhelpful:

          And they're surge protected.

      The black will wear off soon for the Michael socket.

    For those with Targeted 1000 pts for $20 spend, buy 2 for $21 & get $5 of points back.

    I feel a bit ripped off - based on the photo on the pack, I bought one, plugged it in, and my wife didn't even notice. I'll be promptly returning for a refund.

    • +3

      Same here, saw the guy and girl hugging in the photo.

      Bought one, plugged it in, waited an hour and no women came running.

      Spewing!!

    • +1

      You're supposed to plug it in and then grab your wife… like in the photo on the pack.

      He who hesitates is lost.

        Instructions unclear, grabbed singingwolf's wife and she was not impressed.

        • Either way, false advertising…

        • should have grabbed springwolf, he cups

    Don't waste your time terrible quality got it home and the sockets were very poor quality. It was promptly returned for refund.

          Yes, real men know.
          You got the fever, but I'm not mad at you. Wasn't a rant & rave, breaking us in two.

          I put down my Sunday papers to have a tilt. Prob out of style, but it's different for girls.

          It's me and you (against the world), Happy ending.!

          I'm steppin' out.

        • @YogaPants:
          Love it🎵
          Damn, you've used up most of the song titles & my favourite ones may be inappropriate (eg Happy Loving Couples)😉

          I was introduced to the music of Joe Jackson & Elvis Costello on the same day, very long ago. (So Accidents Will Happen, oops Costello again😂) Bought Look Sharp & My Aim Is True LPs to start my small collection.

          Yes YogaPants - seems It's me and you (against the world) - another favourite.

    Ffs I bought one with 4 slots for same price just a day or so ago.

    Actually that one has switches. This doesn't. I needed two so I'll mix and match.

    Anyone know if this is until next Wed?

    Been using these Arlec ones from Bunnings and they're great.

      Never really knew what a "good" price for a power board was; only that I like the Mi strip price lol. If this Woolies one is considered pretty good deal then I might pick up this Arlec one as I could use some individually switched ones. Got enough regular ones.
      I was at Bunnings today too lol >_<

    • +3

      The Arlec twin pack ones are significantly inferior than the single pack.

      Arlec: https://www.bunnings.com.au/arlec-1-8m-lead-powerboard-surge…
      HPM: https://www.bunnings.com.au/hpm-10-amp-4-outlet-surge-protec…

      Functionally probably comparable, just the material and finish look very cheap. Compare side by side you can tell.

    • yeah the arlec ones seem to be a bit better quality

  • +3

    Just bought a couple today, ticket price is $10.5 but scanned at $8.5.
    Should I ask for a full refund quoting the Scanning Code of Practice? :D

    • nice one. You should post as a deal. What store?
      You know the code only applies if the item is cheaper than the scanned price right?

      • Greensborough vic, but I thought woolie system should be nation wide on catalogue items?

        • -3

          No on that

          No on supermarket code of practice because its now a myth.

          And since woolys sell so much out of date food at Christmas don't bother much at Christmas - got better things to do than check the dates on everything. Last week checked why the raw quiches were 2 different colours - because the orange 1 was 10 days out of date.

          Full price free abortion.

    • +1

      That code of practice has meant sht for me. I've referenced it 3x in the last two years. On <$10 items. And the seemed to know it better than i. Politely told me "Bzzt, no deal".

      • +4

        Only use it about once a month in store (shop online now) - was as frequently as few times per week. Saved me a lot of $$$.

        Got free smoked salmon (~$20 packs) many times over months, other free things from Woolies, Coles & IGA. Usually the shelf price is corrected immediately, can only receive 1 free, so off to the next store for free food etc. One IGA joked it might be cheaper to employ me.

        Other items were free despite not being a scanned item - like mispriced fruit last week at Coles (paid by FlyBuys, full refund in $).

        Used to get free deli items (imported cheeses, olives, bacon, ham) @Woolies because scales weren't updated at start of sale week, so deli items in catalog were overpriced on sticker if arrived early. The deli manager would joke each week - what did I want free😉
        So consulted catalog, made selection at deli, checked it was wrong per kg price on scale, paid at checkout, straight to service counter who rang deli manager - free.

        Ate expensive self-serve nuts free from Woolies as a student years ago, as scanned per kg price on sticker was always higher than shelf price - for a year. Woolies staff never replaced the old shelf price. There was always a huge bowl of nuts at my place for everyone.

        Using the Scan guarantee is doing others a favour by correcting mistakes on supermarket's system. So many people must be ripped off by overpriced items. (But not in the case above of underpriced items! Those are not free.)

    The price ticket indicates they’ll be on sale until 2.1.18
    The packaging states ‘lifetime warranty’
