A Case of Iron Jack Lager 330ml (24 Bottles) for $10 @ BWS Spaghetti Code Special

2480

CAUTION: Be careful if you are paying with a credit card, it might charge you the full amount. You should be paying for it by e-gift card anyway. The invoice will show $40 but I paid with e-gift card and it only deduct $9.50 since i have 5% staff discount

Was looking for something to add so i meet my spend requirement for bonus points and accidentally stumble upon these great "deal" on BWS.

BWS had these Spend $28 grab this for $12 dollar deals

For some reason instead of becoming $12, they become $10 instead.

And for some even stranger reason, even when I remove everything else in the cart, the case of Iron Jack is still $10. I tried the same with everything else and it doesn't work.

I spend some times working out what happened and I realise that the total only need to be above $28 before discount for these items to become $10.

So you can get 6 pack of Canadian Club and Dry for $10 by adding something that cost $4 or more

Same with 6 pack of Two Sun, Foster's Classic Lager and Strongbow
Blossom Rosé Sparkling Apple Cider
. Just add product until the total before discount is $28 or more and they will become $10.
Doesn't seem to work with the Nelson County though.

Pretty sure this is an error and this exact error happened in 2018 and they honour it.

The beer is nothing to write home about but for $10 case it's a bargain.

Don't forget to pay with gift card for 5% off , 2% cashback and recycle the bottles for $2.40 ( if your state have a recycling program).

  • Those Rose Ciders are 2+ standard drinks each, solid value at $10 for 6 LOL. Lager is only 0.9 standard drink.

    I can't get an order through at another store! Anyone else managed a 2nd order? Wont work for me at all at any store.

        Don't arouse me. Also us non-corporations get a little screwed with shipping.

        Also never knew messages required an option change.

  • Got the deal with a gift card.
    Thank you OP :)

  • WOW! My receipt shows $43 for the case of iron jack but only $10 taken from my gift card!

    Just placed an order.. Had issues on the website with paying via paypal and card. Loaded the app up and still a issue on paypal but added my credit card and failed.. tried again and worked. Shows as $10 on my card :0

    Thanks OP.

    • Thanks for the tip, website kept throwing errors for me with any payment method but the app worked first try.

  • Heads up, your order has been randomly selected for a security check & may be delayed. You will receive a text message shortly when your order is ready.

    This is on the confirm emails they sent after orders

    • Same here

  • Not working for me any more for collect.

    BUT

    if you do schedule at a later date, the order goes through!!

    Might still.be cancelled anyway though

    • placed an order for delivery, we'll see!

      edit: managed to get pickup to work with much fiddling.

  • Still worked for me just now. 2 slabs, $20 taken from gift card.

    Thank you oP!

  • Cheers OP

    Order a case of iron jack and 6 pack of CC & Dry for $20 paid via gift card.

  • Worked with paypal for me… Cheers OP

    Just noticed 1 of my orders got billed at $40.. Can I request to cancel that order? Or even just change it to something else like XXXX or Carlton?

  • +1

    FYI.. I used the app.. Added my paypal and my credit card as payments. method seems to work so I didn't bother trying to make it easer.

    1. Select something over $30. Go to your cart
    2. Select payment method as paypal and then remove item from cart
    3. Go to home screen, add that item again and then add the Iron beer. Then go to cart.
    4. Remove expensive item and select to pay (don't change your account you paying with.) Mine goes back to my credit card so I think step 2 might be useless to be honest but I did it just in case lol.
  • Did 2 orders at 2 different stores. Lets hope it works out!

  • Party's over? Now getting message upon payment "Oops, something went wrong!!!"

    • +1

      Nah just keep spamming it. I had that error 30min ago, worked eventually

      • It successfully processed after my 10th attempt!

    • +1

      I was getting the same on the webpage, but it still worked for me on the app about ten minutes ago.

  • Did anyone read the text above the selection of the beer.. It says it ends 26th December so they don't have to honor this

    Grab any of the products below for only $10 when you spend a minimum of $28 in one transaction. At this great price, no further discounts apply. Limit of 2 per transaction. Minimum spend is $28. Offer ends 26th December 2019.

    • Offer ends at that date but nothing to do with order placed today for pickup unless they cancel due to price error.

      • +2

        Be positive. All of us are going to get drunk tomorrow

        • Finger crossed! Hope BWS honors it as it takes couple of Iron Jack bottles to get drunk 😂😂

          • @Smokey010: This is a mid strength beer so will take more than a couple…

        • lol.. How do they taste? I ordered… a few.. lol

  • Is BWS asking for automatic payment authority on Paypal for anyone else?
    seems a bit much

  • Keep getting error.

    Oops, something went wrong!!!

  • I think I ballsed up.
    Bought a $10 gift card to use but wouldn't let me checkout with just that so I linked Paypal.
    Ended up getting charged the extra $32 on Paypal.
    Oh well, hope I can refund.

    • If I changed something on the checkout page, e.g. pick up location or payment type, the page refreshed and the price gets recalculated. Keep an eye on the total cost after you change something…

  • CHEERS FOR YOUR ORDER!
    Heads up, your order has been randomly selected for a security check & may be delayed. You will receive a text message shortly when your order is ready.

    Does this mean…………………….

  • order comfirmation shows full amount but during checkout it is discounted price, what if my gift card balance is 100 bucks…

  • 6x Crossbow cider
    1x Giesen Classic Cuvée Vintage
    4x Iron Jack cases

    $61

    • Did you do it from the same Paypal? and does your email state "Heads up, your order has been randomly selected for a security check & may be delayed. You will receive a text message shortly when your order is ready."

      • I used VISA for a half price bottle of wine, 6 ciders and a case of Iron Jack for $31

        Then 3 separate transactions with gift cards at $10 each a case.

        I just noticed the security check :(

        • My first transaction was succesful

  • +1

    Doesn't discount it anymore.. Changes to full price at checkout. Game over?

  • Ordered 1 just now still working in app, just need to try couple times when comfirm order.

    Couldn't get CC show as $10 when I add to cart.

    • Thanks yeah worked with the app

  • Couldn't get the $10 slab by adding and then removing products, it would always change back to full price (using Chrome on Android). So I found 3 bottles of red on clearance for $10 each, added them to the cart with the beer, checked out with PayPal to click and collect at my local and was charged $40 all up. Hell of a deal, thanks OP! If the beer wasn't so average I would have done it twice.

  • Mine shows $10 on receipt but charged my 43 on PayPal not sure what happened

  • used a 10 dollar gift card and it worked shows 42 on the receipt

    • Did you get a security check in the invoice?

      • nope just added the 6 pack of Canadian Club and then the beer to my cart both showed $10 each, removed the CC at the checkout and the beer stayed at $10 used the $10 gift card, invoice says $42 and will be ready to pick up around 10.30am

        • Maybe because I ordered 4 cases, my first order went through

  • I could just add case to order and it would be 10 without anything fancy. 10 taken from gift card

  • Reverts to full price at check out. Looks like they fixed it.

  • +1

    To be sure that they will honour it, I bought a case of Hollandia for $34 (which I don't mind drinking and cheapest you get it at Dan Murphy's is $32 anyway), then added the Iron Jack case for $10.

  • Cheers heaps, worked for me got 2 cartons at different stores. Why not.

  • Wake up at 3 am to take a piss, decide to check ozbargain just in case there are great deals, and there it is. Cheers for sharing this deal op. Just placed an order for 10$

    • +5

      You had 2 choices last night. 40 winks or 24 drinks.

  • Looks like they fixed up the error :(

    • Yep, come back and tried to place my second order but the $10 price no longer available

  • I won a free bottle of Bluey beer in your 100 days of summer promotion. But when I try to redeem it, it adds the item to my cart but but charges me full price. Does anyone have the same problem? I called the BWS about it but they didn't fix it.

    • +2

      I had that issue with a different free beer, the following week it worked ok and I got it for free..

  • +7

    I just got a confirmation email, ready to pickup.
    Is anyone in Hobart TAS and wants a free carton? My work browser traced my location to BWS Aberfeldy Drive.

  • So was their solution to fixing this just to de-activate all the Grab it for $10/$12 deals? Because they no longer seem to work at all for me…

    • I can still do 1xStrongbow for $10 or 2xStrongbow for $25. If they particularly liked the cider then someone could probably put through 4 separate orders and collect a slab for $40 or 6 separate orders and get 2xbonus 6-packs at the currently advertised slab price.

      • Yeah you're correct. It didn't show in the cart but went to $10 at checkout. Shame I can't get it to work for the Canadian Club though.

  • +1

    Bought this last night and my paypal receipt showed I got charged $10, but the emailed invoice from bws showed $40. Checked paypal account and credit card statement this morning and there is no record of the transaction. Have a feeling they won't honour it and it is being reversed?

    • Yep had the same thing with me

  • Can't see the PayPal transaction from BWS on my credit card statement anymore. Order is still in the BWS system though.

  • I snoozed I losed. Awaiting people’s luck in 30 mins

  • $10 is about the appropriate price for a carton of beer of this quality.

  • +1

    Awful awful stuff, don't waste your $10, you'll spend weeks grimacing as you try to force it down your throat, paying $10 for rubbish isnt a bargain

    • +1

      Perfect for when your "not-so-good-mates" visit ;)

    • +1

      I've had the beer. It's actually fairly decent.

    Thanks and great find OP! The person making the mistake will get an iron Jack up the backside today😀

    Ordered 8 cases from 3 BWS beside me got confirmation ready to collect all cheers op

    • Gift cards?

      • Gift card mostly and debit card for 2

  • +1

    Ordered last night a case. A single one out of the deal for the two came up to be $10.
    Proceeded with the payment and received an email confirming that my order was placed and it is $10. The end of the payment page calculated my saving to be $39.
    However, the next came an email from my PayPal account informing me that BWS charged $40 for the pleasure of drinking Iron Jack.
    I've felt the iron in my mouth already without even drinking it.
    So first thing this morning I've called their help line - 1300 138 297.
    They have tried to check whether the store would honour the $10 order. I wasn't sure I needed it at all and I've just asked for the order to be cancelled and $40 to be refunded to my PayPal account.
    All was done in less than 5 minutes.

  • This is what I get for not being awake at 4am lol.

    • -1

      What? Getting overcharged and having to muck around with getting the payment refunded/corrected all for some cheap beer?

      Sounds hardly worth it.

      • +1

        I was meaning the 6 pack of Canadian Club for $10 lol, not the beer.

  • I haven't got my pickup text yet. Do you have to wait for it?

    • +2

      Yeh, mine hasn't come through yet either, they're usually fairly snappy…

      I'll be a bit pissy if I head down there and I cant get it, lol

      • I just went and got it. Didn't get a text or anything other than the pricing error one.

  • +1

    Just picked up my slab. She had to call head office. They would only honor one slab . I didn't get a 40 dollar refund on the second slab, only 10$. They did not allow for a swap, I could only get the iron jack.

    • Did you get the pickup notification?

      • +1

        No the orders are on hold in their system

        • Cheers.
