Just pay shipping, everything is free with the code "FREE"
Order went through, now to see if it gets cancelled or not!
Update: order cancelled and shipping cost being refunded. Reason: "No stock available".
Damn. It was worth a shot, though! The 5 minutes of excitement and fun was worth the process and disappointment hahah!
Heart break survival kit sold out , you must’ve bought them all lol
Yep it was sold out when I checked out
Oh it sounds heartbreaking, but I am sure you will survive even without the kit. :D
I don’t think I can 😭
Heartbreak Survival kit already sold out, got some burger lovers. Hope they respect the order.
It seems that Melb people are getting $7 shipping
Yes, $6.95 I paid
Thanks bro!
Order went through, only payed $6.95 for the shipping! Got 6 bundles, didn't want to be too greedy but got 2x Essendon bucket hat and 2x Essendon Beanie for relatives. Got the aussie burger and burger lovers bundle for myself.
I'd hate to see what greedy looked like

Awesome deal, $38 postage for 3 bundles to WA, 3 xmas presents done! 😀
i got 16 bundles for $29
Wow thought max order you could do was 10?
i just kept going back to see if the postage would go up if i added more and it didnt but if i added more then 16 it said it couldnt send it
'I did the same but ordered 13 bundles, would not send 14 …'
Frankly this was a pretty revealing post with regard to insight into how a seemingly large proportion of the OzB community now behaves, and a shift in OzBargain attitudes/the OzB community standards. In the 'olden days' of OzBargain, anyone who ordered more than 2 or 3 boxes would have been severely down-voted, and given a severe dressing down in the text ('Thy name is Broden', etc.).
It seems that what might have happened in this case is that a few greedy peeps—'sparked' by an early poster rejoicing in the fact that he/she'd scored 10 boxes for one shipping charge of $7—all put in early orders for 10 (or even more in some cases) boxes, and everyone else's orders after that got canceled.
Let's just hypothetically assume that did happen. In retrospect, do those who ordered 10 (or more) boxes think that perhaps a more 'community spirited' approach might have been to order just 2 boxes? And if 'shipping to WA' costs rendered that not worth it, just leaving the deal alone? Or has it now become a generally acceptable attitude to 'take absolutely the maximum that I can get, with zero regard for fellow-OzBargainers' (i.e. 'first in best dressed, and bugger everyone else')?
@GnarlyKnuckles: Agree. I ordered 2. That was plenty. Was cancelled anyway but gouging isn't good for anyone… unless you're desperate enough to be scalping sauce boxes
@Foodstamps: Yeppers … and re:
'… desperate enough to be scalping sauce boxes'
If some poor sap out there (and his/her family) is doing it so tough that they need to act as selfishly as is required to ensure the wellbeing of their family, I guess I don't really have a problem with that. These boxes are simply not the type of thing that you could ever 'scalp' for any level of meaningful profit though. Chainsaws and other tools like that possibly yes, genuine/known-brand clothing possibly yes (if you have the storage space!); but not food/sauce and a footy cap or a candle. The peeps who ordered large numbers in this deal (rather than 2 or so) were simply acting likes pigs at the trough (in my humble opinion), with no regard whatsoever for their fellow OzBargainers.
I wonder, might it be worth one of the admins creating a very generally worded survey about what the wider OzB community currently considers an acceptable level of 'deal utilisation' in situations such as this, where something substantial is being offered for free or almost free, for whatever reason. I'm envisioning very simple response options, just to get an idea of whether there has actually been a large shift in what are considered acceptable OzB standards since the 'Broden days'. Something like:
a. Ordering 1 or 2 is fine, but ordering more than that seems a bit greedy and would likely deprive other OzBargain users of the chance to avail themselves of the freeby/'deal'.
b. Ordering up to 5 is fine, but ordering more than that seems a bit greedy and would likely deprive other OzBargain users of the chance to avail themselves of the freeby/'deal'.
c. The OzBargain community is now 'every man/woman for themself'. It is acceptable to acquire the maximum amount you can of any product/deal brought to your attention here by a fellow OzB user.
The old-school phrase 'fair suck of the sauce bottle' springs to mind!
@GnarlyKnuckles: Agree, I even see people who have bots set up to buy deliberate price mistakes.
When did people get so greedy and not think of, oh I wonder if someone else may want this, rather than buying the entire stock and scalping it.
Heartbreak Survival Kit is sold out. Shame, it's the only one I wanted. Oh well.

I'm surprised that all of them hasn't been sold out yet with the exception of the Hearbreak Survival Kit. Guessing they have a lot of stock to clear out.
I had for heartbreak survival kits in my bag but got greedy and decided I wanted more so by the time I checked out it was sold out :(
They will just cancel orders, why bother?
Let’s see… ;)
At least they will give something complimentary i think
Why would they?
The code "free" clearly indicate their intention to get rid of those left over bundle boxes.
Labor cost to unpack them and sell the sauces again, or the land fill cost is obviously higher than the wholesale price of the sauces itself
Because they lose on potential sales? It's better to landfill them from a business perspective
land fill costs a lot
By giving out them free, they also save a lot of marketing cost.
Many of these bundles will probably give out as present to a third party.
nice imagination there bro….!
Wheres the saucier Muzeeb
I got some of the burger lover bundles and some candles - don’t know why. $30 shipping , wtf wrong with me lol
Chtistmas gifts?
Burger scented candie 😅
Damn, missed out on the Lion's scarf.
Got 2 Burger Lover bundles for $13.94 shipping to SA
Thanks OP but $30 shipping is a deal breaker for me
Expensive, I got $6.95
Guys from outside of Vic got the pointy end of the stick in terms of shipping.
What did I just buy…
$30 ship so I ordered max bundle amount lol
"$6.96 AUD for shipping - You saved $142.50"
Let's see how it go! Wait to see if they cancel my order or not.
What did u buy to only get $6.95 shipping?
Probs metro area
I live in Melbourne so they just calculate the shipping fee is $6.96
I got 10 bundles, just random things.
This new deal got me thinking, how many
of you ozbargainers bought the bundle from the original deal.
Hand over the licence
Can't do sir, Muzeeb watching us very closely.
Somehow this makes me feel better about my dell monitor getting cancelled
You guys know the 500ml ketchup is work $2 at woolies>?
$1.9
For me, it still worth for 10 bundles with $6.96 shipping. :/
At least I don't have to go to woolies just to buy ketchup.
hilarious…enjoy your zero bundles!!!
I mean for Vic, the shipping is $6.95
Get 10x of the Burger Lovers Bundle and you got youself 5kg of ketchup with an added extra of the 5 different sauces but 10x of each.
So its definitely worth it.
I just checked this prior to reading you comment and for me the 500ml shows as $4, 225ml $1.90
Wait for special every 2nd week, currently available at Coles this week
~$11 shipping to Sydney :/
Worth it if you add ten rather than just the one. To QLD it comes to around $30 shipping for 10.
$10.82 shipping to Perth for the burger lovers bundle. i mean, i like burgers, but do i love them that much…
Same case for QLD but 10 for $30 all up not too shabby if it actually gets honoured.
Well, I ordered but haven't got an email yet. How much you wanna bet they won't honour the orders.
I got the confirmation email straight away, but they probably won't honour them.
LOL YUP. Just got an email telling me my order has been cancelled
Got email order confirmed after a few seconds.
Maybe just check your spam folder.
$30 shipping to Brisbane, $56 to regional QLD.
Thanks OP, scored a few packs.
Entire order cancelled and refunded.
Your order has been canceled
Order #xxxxxx was canceled because we did not have enough stock to fulfill your order and your payment has been refunded .
Anyone know expiry for when you buy these products at Coles? Are they like a year to expire?
Sauces don't really expire as long as you keep it in a dry and cool condition and avoid sunlight
I don't taste the difference after I use a special burger sauce expired 2 years ago.

My unopened Masters chilli sauce turned orange and tastes weird
Your Saus-age May Vary
Can't post to WA country address
Check your order again, maybe it too much!?
I was told my order could not be sent to selected address, I just removed a couple of items to have it accepted. I'm guessing it's weight based
$38 when I add one pack to the cart
$38 when I add two packs to the cart
$38 when I add three packs to the cart
$58 freight when I add three packs to the cart
$58 freight when I add ten packs to the cart.
$38 for one pack, $58 for ten packs
Of course I bought ten packs of the burger lovers kit🤦🤦
What are you actually getting?
You may be able to get it all cheaper in store. Ketchup mayo everything they make is $2.25 somewhere right now for the 500ml sizes
@TEER3X: Works out to be 89c each, for 60 sauces
Actually, 53.58 for ten packs. (Wrote $58)
Homebrand Burger sauce at Cole's is $3 everyday.
Thanks, OP! $30 shipping but still a good bargain!
Should have ordered more, but did not want to be greedy, got 6 boxes for $30 or for $5 each.
you should have ordered even more…..!!!!!
Just a reminder that it's public holiday in VIC on both Thur and Fri, they will only start dispatching on Monday 26/9.
No need to panic :)
Thanks OP. Got 10, will keep some and donate the rest to food bank
donate the rest to food bank
Yeah right!
If it comes through, thats a lot of chrissy presents sorted :)
I just grabbed the maximum number I could, 10 Burger Lovers Bundles with shipping at $30.
sad…sad….sad…..
Oh the irony… I don't know whether to laugh at the fact you commented stuff like this for over an hour or feel sorry for you.
Things will get better with time, hold on!
dont feel sorry for me…im having too much fun! oh and keep up the great contributions to the site… its users like you that make this place great!!!
15 bundles here for $6.96, Don't even know what i ordered, now thinking whr would i store them ? 🤪
Oh wow
I couldn't order any more than ten.
I am in Metro Melbourne and i was on check-out with free shipping, i went back to bucket and it started asking for shipping. Had to remove some bundles thn and finally it went through for $6.96. Seems, i will have to distribute some of them.
And to think I felt bad for trying to order 2!
and you publicly admitted that???
lolz, why are you doing moral policing here, on every comment ?
Nice one! Thanks
