Offer valid from 10/02/21 to 16/02/21. Refer to individual gift card for terms and conditions. $5 purchase fee applies to $50 & $100 GCs. $7 purchase fee applies to $250 GCs.

As per the terms, the purchase fee is included in the discount making the final price even better:

  • Buy a $100 gift card for $94.50 - $5.50 profit - ($105 x 0.9 = $94.50)
  • Buy a $250 gift card for $231.30 - $18.70 profit - ($257 x 0.9 = $231.30)

And thanks to RichardL for the percentages:

      I found 2 x $250 tucked in with the $100 purple colour packaging. Who knew they were also purple? I feel very lucky :) Power & gas bills paid :)

  • imcold on 09/02/2021 - 18:32

    It's not very hard nowadays to have two product barcodes, on the gift card packaging, both let's you buy the card, but one will change the security code to the last 3 digits of the recipient number. So depending on the purchaser peace of mind, they can opt for more security.

  • Neoika on 09/02/2021 - 18:39

    Coles Express sells these too (if you dare to do something).

    • Icy-Wolverine on 12/02/2021 - 00:37

      Tried getting one at a Coles express today but no discount was applied so I left it

  • popsiee on 09/02/2021 - 19:09

    Remember the Chubby Ladies toilet paper war footage . I reckon if any $100's or $250's are there at the opening there could be a sequel :)

  • GeeZed on 09/02/2021 - 19:17

    Was in the local Coles this arvo - they had at least 30 of the $250 cards in stock.

  • jspan on 09/02/2021 - 22:01

    What about using these discounted cards to buy other gift cards through Suncorp App? e.g woolworths/coles/amazon GC etc
    Would this be legal?

    • Neoika on 09/02/2021 - 22:03

      I think it is waste of time for this deal. There is purchase limit too, $200? Only if you can find the stock and just buy more.

      FYI, three Coles I have been to only have $50s or none left. Buying $50s is waste of time IMO, too.

      • jspan on 09/02/2021 - 22:20

      • cloudie9 on 09/02/2021 - 22:20

        The best deal would be $250 version, apart from that, is just waste of time.

        • Neoika on 09/02/2021 - 22:24

          I have seen $250s instore before, but never bought them. I think some people are buying them even without discount. I always buy $100s when 2k pts offer occurs.

          • jspan on 09/02/2021 - 22:29

            @Neoika: Why would anyone want to buy these without discount. MIght as well use personal card.

              @jspan: because buying with a discounted egift card more than cancels out the fee.

      Would this be legal?

      You've paid for the gift MasterCard & legally own it, and if Suncorp accepts it as payment, then there's no question of it not being legal.

      I used it in this way, a few months ago. The only drawback is that Suncorp will put in a charge of a couple of dollars to verify the card. Until this charge is removed, which can take a few weeks, then you won't be able to use the full $50/$100/$250 to buy another gift card.

      • Neoika on 27/02/2021 - 14:05

        Thanks for this info. It was not a while ago and just tried and made it acceptable.

      • affinity on 28/02/2021 - 15:51

        There are terms and conditions that do limit it's use, no gambling for one; still most ordinary service providers accept it as just another form of payment and I've had no trouble using them anywhere.

    • Neoika on 09/02/2021 - 22:49
      +1

      I misread your post in the 1st time. Suncorp can not verify this card. In other words, you can not add it. It must be an ID verified debit/credit card.

      It could be added to Shopback before (for giftcard portal), but not any more.

      • Neoika on 27/02/2021 - 14:04

        Suncorp takes it after verification now. It was not a while ago.

    Just got 2*$100 from Coles Eastgardens. The staff was putting the 10% off banner on when I got there. Only $50 cards left on the shelf but not many. Asked the counter, only have $100 value (a few, no $250 value staff said). Ended up paid $189. Good deal still. Don’t forget to scan your flybuys and AmEx card offer.

    • keongperak on 10/02/2021 - 13:53

      • CVonC on 10/02/2021 - 11:56

      • bigchunguss on 10/02/2021 - 08:07

    No $250 ones left, literally the first shopper in Coles.
    I do some shopping get at the checkout, magically a lady shows 6x $250 cards.
    I asked her where she got those "oh over there at the water bottles!"
    So there were none at 7am, but she arrives and there are 6. I check it out again, no $250 ones, of course.

    The cashier even told her to split in 2 transactions, otherwise it wouldn't work.

    • smeng on 10/02/2021 - 08:13

      • johnmelb on 10/02/2021 - 08:47

        So at 7am there were none of $250.
        And in between 7:00 and 7:10 (when I checked out) they had exactly put 5 there?
        Because I was curious about the $250, but at the water bottles only $50 were there.

    I was at Coles Balaclava, Vic, around 8:00 AM. No banner and I looked at the display, only $50 ones. Then I thought to look all the way through and found a stack of $250 ones at the end. If it had been me I'd have spaced them out …

    Anyway, I bought five and then had the idea of coming back to try the gift card -> gift card cycle with the remaining three. Unfortunately there was only one checkout person so I decided against it. I came back to the display and there was someone sadly looking through the cards for any high denomination ones that might be left. I made his day by giving him the three I had decided not to buy. He was rapt! So if you're reading this, you know who to thank. :-)

          It's more an inside job or the GC hidden away, than not given stock. Asked the question and am told sold out.

  • SydneySwan on 10/02/2021 - 09:21

    None at Coles St Leonards in Sydney. Coles have put a table out near the cashiers advertising both the Coles MC and DJ deals. The table is full of DJ cards placed in such a way that no MC cards were ever put on it. Asked a few staff members where the MC cards were but all claimed no knowledge of the offer.

    Interestingly the Coles specials brochure at this store does not have the MC offer in it! However the DJs offer is on page 29.

    • capslock on 10/02/2021 - 09:30

      Any bill that allows split payments can be paid using multiple cards at Australia Post but be prepared to be treated with suspicion by the cashier who might think you are doing something dodgy.

      Better to pay your council rates online with these Mastercards.

    I call shenanigans! Been to 3 stores today. Loads of $50 gift cards. I scored 2 x $100 gift cards and saved $11 (not too bad, but not worth the effort). I'm skeptical they have $250 cards at all. Stores didn't even have empty space where they would have been.
