Huh?
It was 15% cashback last month (twice) and in July 2021, plus it was 16% cashback in October 2022, so it is not getting worse every time.
It merely shows that MYER’s boosted cashback rates (at least for the Beauty category) usually fluctuates between 15% and 22%… and this deal is on the lower end of that spectrum.
Used to be 20%, then 18%, then 17% now 16%.
Let’s look at all the MYER / Cashrewards deals over the past calendar year to see why your statement makes no sense whatsoever.

| 19 June 2022 | 20% | 
| 04 June 2022 | 15%1 | 
| 14 May 2022 | 20% | 
If we regroup the data based on calendar months per row…
| Month | Cashback Rate on Beauty | 
|---|---|
| April 2023 | 16% | 
| March 2023 | 15%, 15%, 18% | 
| February 2023 | 15% | 
| January 2023 | 20% | 
| December 2022 | 17%, 22% | 
| November 2022 | 20%, 20%, 12.5%, 22% | 
| October 2022 | 16% | 
| September 2022 | 17%, 20%, 20% | 
| August 2022 | 20%, 20% | 
| July 2022 | 15%, 20%, 20% | 
| June 2022 | 15%, 20% | 
| May 2022 | 20% | 
There is no clear 20% > 18% > 17% > 16% stepdown trend that you are claiming, especially since there were three occasions in February and March this year where the cashback rate was 15% (which is lower than today’s cashback rate). Sure, it has been a while since there has been a 20% cashback rate for Beauty, but you were not claiming that in your original statement.
The Cashrewards email indicates it is for all categories, not just Home/Electronics/Electrical. ↩
@BigDaddy365: I’m not sure that I would use the word trigger. If one tolerates bullshit long enough, it stops smelling
only buy it during black Friday, 20% off + 20% CB (even Tom ford is on sale)
Gets worse every time.
20% -> 18% -> 16%
