    How do I get the insider reward.account?

  • +1

    Wonder if new accounts will receive an email with the $10? Doubt it unfortunately.

    For $15 (plus the combined $10) you can pick up a 21L Kids Wheelbarrow to put Christmas presents in next to the Tree.

    Targetted?
    I've been a member for many years, some purchases this year, no dollars for me.
    Edit: Maybe they will come before tomorrow.

    • Same, nothing for me either

      • Same here

    • Same Here

    • Same

    • Same, no $10 credit.

    • I think when the $10 credit is loaded you will receive an email

    • No email received, no credit in my account here (ie using the same methods as above). Been a member for years too :-(

    • I had to sign up to their mailing list before I could redeem insider dollars last time. My guess is the same applies to be eligible for this deal.

      • I'm signed up to their mailing list and haven't got an email or this $10 credit.

        • I meant you would’ve had to have signed up before the promo was live.

          • @haru: Yes, I've been signed up for years.

    Its free if C&C. Otherwise plus delivery fees

  • $10 credit working bought STANLEY Utility Knife Retractable Blade 10-099
    Thanks

    • This credit isn't unlocked until tomorrow.

      That's a different $10 credit!
      Likely for using referral when signing up.

  • Received email but no $10 credit

  • I'm signing up for the Inside Reward and hoping the get $10, what's the benefit of using a referral code on signup? (Couldn't find anything about that)

  • +1

    Nothing in mine but then I opted out of the constant stream of marketing junk mail. It used to be only great deals but now it is non stop marketing with deals few and far between..

    As you have to be opted in for junk marketing I am happy to miss out out on the $10.00. On the other hand I have just changed my account to opt in which I will change back tomorrow to opt out - if I pick up $10.00 well and good if not I am happy to not have their junk marketing stuff..

    Stuff the $10 credit. Give us another price error to price beat at Bunnings!

    These scammers cancelled my order last time and made up some baloney excuse that the item was obsolete so they couldn't send it.

    • They cancelled mine after three weeks

      Was that that in the very popular $2 gaffer tape - delivered free DealWith 5346 clicks!
      A few comments that orders were cancelled.

      3 day earlier $2 gaffer tape Deal was more popular with 5634 clicks!
      1 Comment that order was cancelled. But another bought "a carton"

      Stock was overwhelmed in some areas by the number of orders in 2 popular Deals within days - leading to cancellations. That's what sometimes happens in very popular Deals!

      Ordered early on 29/11
      Shipping confirmation 30/11.
      Delivered 1/12
      Not a scam! Great service!

      I turned up in store to collect order from first Deal, about 2 weeks after order was confirmed. Friendly staff member looked out the back & asked if my name was… Yes! Easy.
      He'd used the tape & was impressed.

      11,000 clicks in those Deals. Stock systems are rarely accurate & often can't handle that level of orders.

      No sign of scam business.
      Seems you just missed out.

    Received email on 2 accounts
    Credit only on 1 account!

    $10 doesn't show as Insider Dollars (probably will tomorrow!)
    But shows as a Promotional Reward $10 credit expiring tomorrow.
    Found at bottom of Insider Rewards in account tab.

    ACTIVE INSIDER REWARDS
    Type: Promotional Reward
    Original Value: $10
    Expiry: 18-DEC-2021

    Received $10 credit on Account used for purchases. (Set up with referral code)
    But nothing on unused account! (Not set up with referral code)

    • $10 credit now available as Insider Dollars!

      • In both accounts now - wasn't showing in 1 account before.

  • they usually send you a $10 credit as well right before father's day.

  • -3

    I gave up on them and told them I will buy Sydney Tools in future when they reneged on my Black Friday orders. Pure bait game - is it that hard for them to follow no stock = no order. I will or course use my remaining insider dollars on some small item just to say F you.

  • Went to check again and all I get is:

    Our website is currently undergoing scheduled maintenance

    Fingers crossed for the updated dollars…..

    • Working for me.
      Possibly a lot checking their accounts.

  • +1

    Searching - found a lot of the more interesting $10 or under items are already not available locally, out of stock - eg DETROIT 3W LED WORKLIGHT, only available by special order (wait up to 2wks) - eg S&J BYPASS SECATEURS, STANLEY 19MM X 5M TAPE.

    And what is available isn't of much interest to me (already got better hammers, measuring tapes, paint scrapers & brushes,…)

    Search by price from 70c

    Previously $2 Gaffer Tape now $13.20

    For those into shovelling shit…
    MEDALIST 1M D-HANDLE SQUARE MOUTH SHOVEL $1.30 - it's in safety Pink!

    • HRD LED HEAD LAMP $6.50 after credit

  • $10 credit now available to spend as Insider Dollars!
    Need to add as whole Dollars:
    Added $10 for $9.95 order, removed $9.95 from total credit. (Unused 5c expires today)

  • Still nothing here

    • Same. Nothing for me

    • Did you receive the email & had joined Insider Rewards?

  • Is the credit for silver or gold tiers but not bronze? Did it require a purchase in 2021?

    • No & no.
      Both entry level Bronze accounts received this email & $10 credits. 1 was never used.

      Made 2 accounts on 26/11. Signed up both for Insider Rewards

      On 1 account, bought $2 gaffer tape, received $10 join up referral credit + 2c credit on $2 purchase. Used credit to buy more gaffer tape with free delivery.

      Other account was never used. Didn't use referral code (testing effect of using referral code, as was asked by Neil) - no $10 join up credit added.

      Received $30 credit in 3 weeks.
      Glad I joined!

  • Been an insider member for few years. Made a purchase this year as well. Only .30C credit I can see

  • This may be targeted?

    • It seems likely, I also didn’t receive it.

    It's a bit confusing when you log in and it shows the following:
    Promotional Reward $10, expiry 18-DEC-2021
    You have $10.15 Insider Dollars to redeem. Expiry: 01-DEC-2022

    When I purchase something, it's deducted from my $10.15 Insider Dollars which expires Dec 2022, instead of deducting it from this $10 promotion which expires today.
    How do I save my $10.15 Insider Dollars for another time and instead use the $10 Promotional Reward to purchase something today?

    • So you have $20.15 total Insider Dollars showing in account?
      How do you know it's deducting from your long term Insider Dollars? I haven't tried yet.

      Am similarly placing order with credit in both ($8+$10). Will likely use up all credit to avoid that.

      • I have $10.15 Insider Dollars which expire Dec 22
        I have $10.00 Promotional Reward that expires today
        By default it's only deducting the Insider Dollars, not the Promo Reward
        I can't see how to apply the $10 Promotional Reward
        I want to spend $20.25 on 2 items but they will only apply $10 from my $10.15 Insider Rewards
        I briefly got it to deduct the $10 Promo Reward but can't replicate it now.. shopping cart is definitely buggy when using Insider Dollars together with Promo Reward

        • I can deduct the full $18.02 from my Insider Rewards.
          Does it show you have $20.25 in Insiders Rewards (shown in the large number)?

          My account shows:

          INSIDER DOLLARS
          Insider Dollars $18.02
          You have $18.02
          Insider Dollars to redeem
          Expiry: 29 NOV 2022

          ACTIVE INSIDER REWARDS
          Promotional Reward
          $10
          18-DEC-2021

          Tier Reward
          $10
          25-JAN-2022
          ($8.02 remaining)

          • @INFIDEL: Yes but can you use the $10 Promo Reward together with your Insider Rewards, i.e. spend $28.00 (use your $18.02 + $10.00 together in 1 transaction)?

            • @[Deactivated]: You can't use the $10 Promo Reward together with your Insider Rewards!

              Why? The Insider Dollars total already includes the $10 Promo Reward!!

              My $18.02 Insider Dollars is made up of (as shown above from my account)
              $10 Promotional Credit (exp today)
              + $8.02 remaining Tier (referral) credit.

              It's not $18.02 Insider Dollars + $10!!


              It deducts my $18 leaving $0.02 Insider Dollars.

              From checkout:
              Insider Rewards
              You have $18.00 Insider Dollars available to redeem

              I'd like to use the maximum rewards
              Apply Insider Rewards to this order

              Subtotal $18.15
              Remove Insider Dollars Redeemed -$18.00
              Delivery CLICK & COLLECT
              Order Total $0.15


              As I asked - does it show a total of $20.25 Insider Dollars available in your account? Or is it $10.25?

              Sure you aren't misunderstanding the credits?

              • @INFIDEL: Ok think I get it now, but not sure.. I was adding the $10.15 Insider Rewards to the $10 Promo Reward, but turns out I only had $10.15 in total
                But this is still strange because I bought these bungee straps for $10.35. I used up $10 Insider Reward (but it should show as $10 Promo Reward) and then paid 35 cents at checkout. But when I check my account after the transaction, I still have $10.15 Insider Rewards expiring Dec 2022, but the Active Insider Rewards (Promo Reward) of $10 is now empty

                  @[Deactivated]: Last night your account would have shown 25c, before the $10 credit was added today. Mine showed $8.02 yesterday. Now it's $18.02.

                  All that matters is when you again order, does it allow you to take $10 off the price?? Likely it will show that's not available at checkout!

                  As shown in your account, changes to Insider Dollars take up to 48hrs to update.

                  • @INFIDEL: Ok that's what's happening, the Insider Dollars haven't updated yet. Yes it took $10 off my order and I only paid 35 cents all up

                    • @[Deactivated]: The way to see your updated Insider Dollars balance is (as I suggested) - place something in the cart & see what available balance can be used to help pay at checkout. My guess is 25c.
