  • So is this a fuel cap or a cap for the head?

  • +1

    Do they inflate the value price so they can claim it on tax write off?

    • Inflation inflated.

    • +1

      Can only claim the actual cost they paid for them not their made up value.

      Unless it is “rare” art and they pay someone to value the item at several million (after paying next to nothing for it in the first place) and they then donate the item to a museum out of the kindness of their heart.

  • -2

    Thinking of putting duct tape over the branding for work but I think that might look worse.

    • +5

      Why would you cover the logo, do you work for BP or something?
      Tell your boss to supply a hat if they don’t like the logo, it’s $3 for a plain cap at Kmart.

  • +3

    Hats off to this bargain

  • +1

    Sensational I will wear this for the rest of my time on earth

  • +1

    I don't want a Techron cap I want a bottle of Techron fuel additive to add to my car but they stopped selling(used to sell them in Caltex) it. What a stupid cap to promote something you cant buy anymore.

    Techron is added into Caltex Premium fuels.

  • +1

    Thanks OP likely far too late to this but submitted anyway.

  • Start a campaign, rock the cap get 8c off per Litre 👍

  • +4

    Free Hat

    • +1

      More like free info they can sell to the highest bidder. Im guessing the caps supply has been exhausted.

      • +3

        Already free for the world to see thanks to optus.

        Also I was referencing south Park.

  • Free cap, no cappin' 🧢😀

  • Thanks OP

  • +3

    12.5k clicks and counting. Surely they are out of hats now.

  • +2

    perfect hat wear at a climate rally

  • -1

    caltex have the cleanest running fuel

  • +2

    13k clicks wonder if they expected that many ppl to grab free hats. Hats off to them if they can supply that many

    • +1

      Cheaper than advertising on tv and radio

      • +1

        Well I reckon some of us will get OOS email

      • +1

        do people look at someone's hat and go, "hey yeah! i should fill up with caltex!"?
        i don't notice what people are wearing most of the time.

        • Dont know the right term for it but certain colours, logs, repetitive exposure can subconsciously influence your buying habits.

          • @easternculture: well if they ever develop an app with a price locking feature, i'd be happy to consider them lol.

            as far as influence goes, i'm more likely to buy something i've seen/recommended on ozbargain. and i reckon more companies are realising this, too, going by the amount of spam that gets posted by those desperate to cash in on us..

        • +1

          I mean, just seeing the brand name more in your everyday life just makes you feel that the company is bigger/more prominent than it actually is, right?

        • +1

          I have a stihl hat and people regularly ask me about the equipment I use and where I get it from, I’d say the stihl dealer that gave the hat to me has probably had at minimum 3 or 4 customers because of it, probably more.

        • We fill up whereever is cheaper. Not because of brand….

          • @neonlight: Same. These days it all comes from the same 1 or 2 refineries, no matter what brand.

  • +6

    Came across the promo just now on Facebook - https://www.caltex.com/au/motorists/rewards-and-offers/promo…

    It mentions signing up at V8Sleuth (linked in OP) or The Race Torque. The Race Torque link says hat will be posted after 2022 Bathurst 1000.

    • +2

      Awesome. Thanks

  • +1

    They don't mention how many free caps they are giving away… Could just be 10.

    • +1

      Or they could just be harvesting our info.

      • +1

        They claim to be giving away hats until they run out… so legally they have to give away "some hats"… could be 2 hats even to fulfil their requirements.

        Branded hats are free advertising though and a mega-corp like Caltex wouldn't even feel an itch dropping $50k on a hat promo\advertising scheme.

        • +1

          True a corp like caltex dropping 50k in hats manufactured in china is a water droplet in all the worlds oceans for them.

          And free advertising is free advertising.

  • +1

    Will make it much easier to spot fellow ozbargainers in public 😂😂

    • +4

      We must have a secret Nod each time we spot each other in public wearing this hat

      • +2

        I'm pairing my hat with my Veeam shirt

  • Won the race in a car they don't make any more….

  • +1

    Is it a requirement to select Caltex as your preferred fuel brand? Because I am more of a Shell man myself.

    • +2

      you can pretend you are a Caltex man while pumping at Shell by wearing one

  • +7

    Where's my cap

  • +6

    Never got the cap.

    • +4

      Same. Just got my info harvested for nothing.

  • Nada

    Just email spam

  • +2

    claimed early, no cap, and just got spam email today

    • Yep, not hat here either. I thought some of us would have at least got one.

  • Has anyone received a hat?

    I did tweet @ V8Sleuth and there was response was…

    There was limited stock, promotion was very well responded to, Caltex handling dispatch of hats, if you haven’t received by now stock must have been exhausted.

    • I did contact V8Sleuth on there website this is the response,

      the caps are the responsibility of Caltex - they are handling the mailing out of these. I do know the promotion was successful and there were like more submissions that available caps.

      My own real advice would to keep your eyes on your mailbox over upcoming weeks to see if your successful.

      • I've been in contact with Caltex in regards to the cap from 15 of November 2022 and there response was where did you get the information email or website. I told Caltex I got the info from V8Sleuth. Then next email came through from Caltex telling me that we have forwarded your concern to relevant team, it kept going back and forth from that message. I received another message from Caltex telling me that the team has yet provided any response on my inquiry and now closed my case. So in total I received 5 emails from Caltex. Sorry for the long recap, it's safe to say it was all a scam to steal information. And yet to receive a cap, has anyone ever got the cap?

        • has anyone ever got the cap?

          Nope. Just got our info harvested.

          • @xoom: I haven’t even received spam from Caltex, only from V8 Sleuth.

  • +1

    No hat, just V8Sleuth spam instead.

    • Exactly

  • wheres my cap?

    • Got the same email but I couldn't comment on this since it was too long ago lol

      • Same. Got the exact same email.

  • Yet the email said it'd been shipped?

    • This email's subject line was misleading

    • Perhaps they mean it’s on the way, as in it’s in a shipping container on a slow boat that is yet to dock in Australia?

  • Yesssss

  • +1

    Another update damn. We will actually get it.

    • One day we will.

      • Kinda don't want it since its grey based on the banner.

        • But free hat.

  • I want my free hat
