    So basically stuff all chance of a free prize, and now they’re making us play some stupid game to get the same offers that used to just automatically appear in the app?

        Eligible Entrants will be awarded a Prize for successful completion of the chosen game of the above mentioned games in the Promotion.

        So you need to complete the game. Its a competition/luck/skill then.

      On the first day i tried it i got a free big mac along with a $2 big mac offer in the app. So i went and got them both and ended up with 2 big macs for $2. Tasted good.

    It literally says instant win in the terms. Just post this in competitions with the instant win tag.

    • +17

      I can understand what you’re saying. You’re probably wondering why I insist on posting this here and not in comps even though the key words such as “instant win” are in the T&Cs.

      Firstly, this deal is similar to the shake & win deals that have been posted for HJs in the past. Some may think that there is additional effort to play a game to win but the nature is that what you will get is an unknown till the task (be it shake or play a game) is completed.

      Secondly, as mentioned in the OP, there was a deal previously posted for the Shopback app whereby an unknown prize was awarded on completion of a game. Again, what is required here is similar in nature.

      I don’t make the rules here. I am just following the precedence. If people feel the deals I post are out of line with the rules then the report button is there.

      Finally is something which I’ve wanted to get off my chest for a while. There are certain individuals here that go to great depth to give me a hard time. I am not asking for recognition or acknowledgement for the deals that I post here but why the hate? Is there a need to cyberstalk me elsewhere and defame me? Such actions are unwarranted but if you feel the need to go to this level then I can let “you” know that such actions have been reported to the police with evidence.

      Ozbargain, or any online community, is just a platform where like-minded people can share things to benefit each other. Hate is not required. Therefore, I once again remind “you” of the gentleman agreement I put forward of staying out of each other’s posts. I believe I have done my bit, let’s see if you can do yours.

      • I asked this question before your post was deleted last time, but how is this deal different from Domino's Instagram deals, which didn't get questioned?

      • -7

        There are certain individuals here that go to great depth to give me a hard time.

        You post a lot. Obviously, they can't all be good deals. It might just be you being too sensitive.

        I am not asking for recognition or acknowledgement for the deals that I post here but why the hate?

        It seems most of your negs seem to come from your post of eBay. You just crawl through the terms for "coupons" that only work for eligible items. I understand why eBay no longer do sitewide codes, but if you're going to post a coupon, at least post something with it, so that people can see it as a deal, and not just another coupon.

        Is there a need to cyberstalk me elsewhere and defame me?

        Again too sensitive. Look at your posts with negs and look at those without negs. There is a clear pattern.

        staying out of each other’s posts

        If you can't accept any criticism, maybe an online forum is not for you.

        • I don’t mind negs. Hate is not negs. Also, negs is not defamation.

          As for the eBay deals, once the code is there, deals found can be related to it. You will find that actual deals will get higher votes. I’m not posting to get more votes.

          • -4

            @Taegukgi: If you don't mind the negs, then what do you consider hate?

            As for the eBay deals, once the code is there, deals found can be related to it.

            Is it that hard to just post one example?

        • +3

          I like the ebay coupon posts. Give me a chance to check my watched items. I might not like the deal posted and not know there is actually a coupon that may work for something im interested in.

      • +6

        <3 u dealbot
        Appreciate all your posts!

      • -4

        But you need to complete a game to get a chance to win. So there's skill involved. If you exaggerate this concept to explain better its like posting a deal for free 3 million USD if you beat everyone in the Fortnite world championships.

        • Yes exactly like that. Nothing like "flip a coin / roll a die and have it come up 1/7 chance to win".

        • +2

          Absolutely no skill is needed. As long as you got the app, a finger and 2 functioning brain cells, you'll be fine.

          • @Ughhh: Well my second last brain cell just died reading the comments above

      • +5

        It's an interesting phenomenon. I don't know why online communities bring out these types of individuals. I don't know what kind of people they are. Do they have mental health issues, are they children, or do they just have nothing else better to do but bully people online?

        I often wonder this. I'm not talking about just Ozbargain but even places like Reddit. You can post something so innocent and somehow you get bombarded with hate. People seem to feel the need to "correct" everything, like they're on a crusade or something .

        Anyway, I want to let you know you're appreciated. Anyone who posts deals to Ozbargain should be appreciated. This community wouldn't be without its contributors. I've saved plenty of money of your deals.

        • A good sentiment👍

          Unfortunately, the more people like dealbot post (benefiting all of us!), the more negative, hateful comments they get.

          There are also people who support top OzBargain deal posters, who feel loyalty to their favourite & sledge the others. It's can be a bit like supporting your football team & hating the opposition. All Deal posters benefit us. We're all on the same team.

          I've chatted to a few top posters, who have all complained about this harassment. There can be a horrible feeling of being cyberstalked (from the same few individuals), as dealbot rightly complains about.
          We should call out all harassment as unacceptable.

          The harassment benefits no one! It takes a toll on those Deal posters.
          It can drive our best Deal posters off this site, depriving us of their great work for this community.

    I've got that same $2 cheeseburger offer in my app and they're trying to call that a prize? 🙄

  • sorry i have the app but where is the game? or is this different app from the old one for ordering?

    • +3

      Starts February 5/2 at 3am.

    • I was going to have Macca's last night, before doing so I checked their app, I couldn't get it to work, as it needed to be updated but it wouldn't update/download, just kept trying to do so in the play store.

      Even restarted my phone a few times (Android)
      I gave it 5 min & gave up, so they lost a purchase.
      This would explain the needed update to their app at a guess.

  • +8

    Oh well, this'll be interesting at least. My luck can't get any worse from the BWS promo surely.
    How long are the prizes valid for?

    • +1

      I have had about 10 free bottles of beer/cider to try cant complain with that.

      • Same. Even won a tasting at a local distillery

      • Not sure if it's just because I'm in NSW, but I've got no freebies at all. No bottles, no merch.

        • -1

          Starts tomorrow.

          I make the same mistake all the time but I’m getting better.

            @Member 0230: Sorry @pennypincher98, I didn't mean to offend — obviously my poor choice of words!

    • BWS promo?, must have missed that, how long ago was this?
      I had a quick look here but couldn't find it.
      Anyone have a link?

      • It's in competitions and it's on day 97/100 lol.

  • +2

    Didn't this get taken down because "competitions aren't bargains" yesterday?

    • See Deal Description: Re-posting per advice from mods re deal title.

      Every play wins a prize. Only "competition" is what prize you win.

      • Not really a prize if you still need to pay though…

        • you still need to pay though…
          Over 200k are free offers!
          (Check numbers in Deal Description)

          Every one who plays receives either a discounted or free offer.
          Better than paying full price!

          That's why I wrote it as prize.
          It's just a regular Maccas offer, disguised as a game, plus free offers.

          Prizes aren't necessarily free.
          (In competitions I've won return flights for 2 to Hong Kong - pay taxes, half price scenic day trip on a yacht, free car servicing - pay for oil, etc.)

          Maccas Deals here are regularly for paid discounted offers. That's why this is considered a Deal, rather than a competition.

    Wow! Won a $3 Fullet-O-Fush! (1 of 48696)
    For dunking a McNugget in a sauce.
    Try again tomorrow…

  • $2 cheeseburger I won.

    • From my independent research, this is the most common prize.

      • +1

        From the prize pool numbers above, your research may be limited😉

        $1 Hashbrown 204522 (most offered)
        $2 Cheeseburger 68174

        • +2

          From my independent review, you'd be right. But a member of my independent team has suggested the distribution may not be random.

          • @peterpeterpumpkin: It's their business, so they can probably distribute offers to suit them (to move people into their stores to increase paid purchases).

            May not have to be random. More of 1 prize may be available at certain times.

            As long as they meet the terms of the permits.
            Permit Numbers
            NSW: LTPS/19/41119
            ACT: TP19/04949
            SA: T19/2182

            Hard to tell from only part of a day of operating. Need a reasonable sample size to tell.

            • @INFIDEL: Yeah, the conditions may be interesting to read.

              I know a guy that tried 20 accounts and received 10 cheeseburgers. But he thinks it's more likely when he doesn't reset his IP address. He feels that $2 Cheeseburger is his punishment.

              • @peterpeterpumpkin: He has a strange idea of punishment - being flagillated with $2 Cheeseburgers😉 (Better hurry - Offer expires @3am)

                Family tried - on 3 accounts, each on different games on same IP address:
                1. $3 Filet-O-Fish burger
                2. $5 10 Chicken McNuggets
                3. $5 Sml Big Mac Extra Value Meal + Cheeseburger

                Can't draw anything from that, except no freebies for us.

                And if not claimed - these offers have likely been marked as used, so not available to others??

                Googled the permits - not available for viewing.

                • +1

                  @INFIDEL: Update: cheeseburger guy informs me that the cheeseburger punishment only occurs on accounts he created over the last month or so, where he often claimed a cheeseburger.

                  As you've observed, the IP address probably had no influence.

                  Good luck with today's mission.

                    @peterpeterpumpkin: Can confirm new accounts don't win the free burger prizes. Best u can win on a new account is a free small fries.

                    Only older accounts can win the free big mac and free mcchicken prizes.

    • It seemed like there were cash prizes but entry requires buying stuff through the app.

      • i made the order (that milkshake) collected paid and finished it over 10 mins ago but still cant unlock/play that macca run

    I got a $1 sundae and $3 6 nuggets.

    Within 5 seconds of playing I realised that Maccas aim is to target kids…

  • I won a free small McCafe coffee. However, I didn't realise it expires at 3am AEDT.
    Won't be able to redeem it by then.
    Any chance I can transfer this to someone who'll use it?

  • I have a spare code for a $5 Small Big Mac Meal plus Cheeseburger if anyone wants..

    • Gone now via Classifieds!

      • how do you give someone a voucher? the 4 digit code/qr code refreshes every so often? wouldnt want to give it to someone for it to be invalid when they get to the store

        • Yes.. Realised that yesterday…

          For the code to work, you would need to generate it only when the other person is in-store…

          It takes a little bit of co-ordinating but doable nonetheless.. 😊

  • Finally won a free coffee! Woohoo! Thanks OP! 😊😊😊

  • PM me for free sundae.

  • +2

    I didn't realise this thing goes for a month!

    That makes the deal more impressive on the one hand and a bit of work on the other. Some nights I can't be bothered driving around town for a free hash brown.

  • The app hasn’t been working for me all day today. It keeps citing a server error.

  • +1

    Free big mac and mcchicken every day for the rest of February, hard to turn down!

              @harthagan: I know! 30 mins expiry is sooo annoying!

        • +1

          Eh I opened some new accounts after this latest promo started and one of them has won a McChicken twice

          • @Levathian: I just noticed this happen to me too. I guess my theory was wrong haha. It must be totally random. Sometimes I get 2 or 3 free big Macs consecutively and other times I might get 10 in a row of the stupid nuggets or $1 hash browns haha

        • Tried 12 times on existing accounts & only won free 1 fries & 1 hashbrown.
          Not worth wasting my time on such meagre prizes.
