  • with so many people stock piling before the deadline, Woolworth boosts its working capital. smart :) Maybe they will offer discount again after a while :)

  • Really could not understand Woolworths' logic of phasing out giftcard discount. Offering giftcard locks in the spend in the Woolworths Group. * sigh*

    Maybe someone on Ozbargain should start a boycott Woolworths campaign 😂

  • Thanks for the heads up!
    gonna stock up

  • Thanks all. Bought a few k's worth. I now have $5 credit remaining on my credit card.

  • Doubt it would make much difference to Woolies. A 5% discount doesnt influence me to shop there. It's my local (as is Coles & Aldi) so will be business as usual. Main this is to monitor specials as that is more important than the 5% (no matter where one shops). I think it might have more of an influence on Dan Murphys as its easier for me to shop elsewhere BUT again like Woolies, if the price is better elsewhere then I shop there. 5% was just a convenient bonus. No doubt different for others.

    It would be funny if they were phasing out the 5% to make way for a 8% Wishcard.
    Ok…….I know, I expect above comment to get smashed with negs. But wouldn't it be funny with everyone buying up heavy.

    • I think you are on to something, like the occasional $2 cashback if you buy over $100 value of GC.

  • Reminder: Giftcards are like cash or even worst without much protection.You lost them you lost them so buyer beware.

    • if you lose your email you're in for a world of hurt

      • Take a screenshot

  • So 5% ends in 35 mins?

    • "From 21 Oct 2020, we’ll offer 3% discount on Woolworths Gift Cards." so we should be able to get 5% cashback until tomorrow - correct?

      • -1

        Yeah "FROM 21st" which is in 11 Mins Midnight is 21st hence if wording is correct then ends tonight at midnight?

        SORRY……………am an idiot. Was doing some accounts and adding tomorrows date on them ready to send out (don't ask) and was thinking today was the 20th! Question still remains. So does this end tomorrow 20th at 11:59?

        • Yes, it should end on 20th at 11:59pm. Still have 23 hours to buy at 5% discount.

  • i'm on the app and its saying 0% cashback… i thought we had until 20/10 before it went to 3% cashback and then 0% from 19/11?

    oh my bad, i just searched "woolworths", shouldve been searchign "woolworths gift cards" lol

    • from my end , still showing 5% OFF

    • -1

      Just bought $500 on my tablet browser, definitely still 5% off

  • I'm in dilemma, I usually shop at coles so $500 should be enough for a year or more. Not sure if I should get more or save the money in a bank.

    • +1

      Which bank will give you 5% interest tax free?

      • Good point

  • +2

    So far only Cashrewards and Suncorp reported about the disocunt reduction.There are no announcmenets from anyone else.
    Perhaps it means that the discount will stay at other sellers (like Shopback, Entertainment book, etc).

  • +7

    dear cashrewards, how about a $2 bonus on the last day or something? thanks.

    • After 2pm now. Doesn't look like there is a $2 bonus.😞

      • could be 5pm to midnight. cmon TA!

        • Really? Bought one around 1pm, then realised that I should wait till after 2pm.

    • +1

      Would have thought BONUS's were a way to gain extra traction for supplier and in turn good advertising. As this is coming to an end…….why offer a BONUS as there are no future gains for either party (CR or Wollies)?

      • I agree with you. Why would they want to offer extra?

      • thought CR covered $2 bonuses to keep you using them and it is just taken out of their commission.

        future gains are customers accepting the future 3% and buying them anyway.

        • +1

          But you are already their customer and to get the 5% Woolies discount you need to go via CR link regardless. You are either going to top-up before this deal expires tonight or not. I doubt offering e.g. a $2 Bonus is going to suddenly convince current Wish Card users to top up. Getting the final 5% is bonus enough.

  • Holding out for that as well.

  • Unions Member Advantage / Ambassador Card is still 5% discount with no mention of a change.

    • Just checked and unfortunately, the price for wish gift cards got updated to 3% :(

      • No still 5% off.

        • Just logged in and check.. Bad news :(

          • @feihong: I bought a few last night around 11pm at 5% discount and all arrived within half an hour to 40 mins.

  • How much are you guys thinking of buying? No expiry seems pretty low risk for a larger purchase….$1K to 2K?

    • +1

      Bought $1k. Given that it's 5% off, it's better off being on a giftcard rather than being in a savings account.

      • I'm contemplating another $500 from SB hmmm

  • So tonight have to decide. OH I'm so Frustrated!

  • my recent citibank minimum spend issue sorted out..just got my card..peace. Thanks OP.

  • +3

    Bought 2k, at least the saving is higher than bank's interest rate :)

  • +1

    RIP in peace cheap cigarettes

  • purchased to help with a credit card minimum spend per month

    • does it count as Cash Advance/fee??

      • +1

        Nope.

  • Frustratingly, can't purchase at the moment!
    Tried with Visa & MC
    Sorry! We can't seem to process your payment at this time
    Please try again later.

    • im about to buy - good luck to me

      • Tell us if it works for you.
        Tried for 30 min on mobile.

        • +1

          worked for me just now no issues on desktop

          • +1

            @impoze: yep worked ok - did on desktop too, how did i spent $475 lol

          • @impoze: Thanks - changed to laptop & placed order👍

  • I saw this update:

    BWS Store eGift Cards 5%
    BIG W Store eGift Cards 5%
    Dan Murphy’s Store eGift Cards 5%

  • +2

    sad, purchased $5K to save $250, better than 1.6% interest, mainly for fuels and groceries

  • RIP

  • Just bought 1k worth.

  • +1

    Still worked at 12:20am (Syd) so a little bit of leeway by the looks of things (perhaps to cover all AU Timezones?). Its still only 9:23pm in Perth so deal not totally expired!

    • Yep, still appears to be working at 12.25am EDT.

  • +3

    Interesting, just added another card as a test and now there's an alert at the top of the checkout page:
    "We have made changes to our Branded eGift Cards redemption policy. For more details, Click here."

    But the link just takes you to a generic help page…

    • I think it's referring to only being able to use the gift cards at specific brands from the 21st October. If you bought the gift card before that date it can be used at all Woolworths brands.

      Please note that as of 21 October 2020, when you purchase a Branded eGif Card from our
      website, it will only be redeemable within the brand for which the Store eGif Card is branded.
      This means,
      ● BIG W Store eGif Cards will only be redeemable at BIG W, online and in store.
      ● Woolworths Store eGif Cards will only be redeemable at Woolworths Supermarkets &
      Metro, online and in store.
      ● BWS Store eGif Cards will only be redeemable at BWS, online and in store.
      ● Dan Murphy's Store eGif Cards will only be redeemable at Dan Murphy's, online and
      in store.
      ● Cellarmasters Store eGif Cards will only be redeemable at Cellarmasters online.

      https://giftcards.woolworths.com.au/medias/branded-egift-car…

      • So if you have egift cards purchased before the 21st. Use them at Woolworths or wwPetrol, as their discount is dropping.

        Buy a new card for BigW DanM etc as their discount remains at 5%

        • eGif

          How is this different to normal Gif?

  • Woolwoths Liquor, Dan Murphy's, BWS (which can be used at Woolworths and Big W) can be still bought @ Suncorp with 5% discount even though Woolworths & Caltex went down to 3%.

    • T&Cs apparently have been changed to restrict them to specific stores.

    • +2

      Yeh that's what I used to do, but don't think that's going to work any more.

      Redemption changes

  • Bought about 10 minutes ago and have received a gift card just now. Potentially some lag in reducing the rates phew

    • I bought some last night but am still waiting for mine.

  • +2

    Where is 5% still applicable? Anyone knows? Thanks

  • +3

    Cashrewards is now 3%

    Checked RACV and still 5%

  • +1

    Picked up 2x $500 cards last night. Still haven’t received it yet. Normally I get it within a few hours. Anyone else experience this? Received the order confirmation and the tax receipt.

    • Guess they were being pounded by users purchasing last minute, hence the delay

      • Probably. We’ll see how long it takes.

    • Just received mine.

      • What time did you order?

        • 23:55pm

          • @nmcc08: Ok thanks. I ordered about an hour before. Usually gets to me within an hour. Must be super busy.

  • +2

    I noticed entertainment book has quietly (well at least i don't recall seeing anything) dropped the discount on wish cards to 3% as well as cash rewards. Glad i stocked up on some last week. Should last for a while.

    • Smartspending/Beacon is still at 5%.

  • +2

    curious to see how much ppl have been stocking up before it ended… ;)
