Forum Post: Hiver - Where Can You Get Cashback?
Councils come up as Government Services normally. It's really only things like water/electricity/gas or telcos and only some of them. If you click on the transaction you can see the MCC in words.
If you want cashback on your booze you would need to buy gift cards from the supermarket or the Woolworths gift card site (especially good if you get discounted gift cards).
