    Their offers as of late have been really crap, dunno why. I am guessing there is some sort of algorithm going on, as soon as we changed to box divvy for fresh produce I started getting the bonus offers.

    • nepalicurryinahurry on 29/02/2024 - 11:22

      Yes. These offers should come if you don’t swipe your flybuys at Coles for few weeks.

        We shop at Coles every week (and have done so for years) and we get all these offers.

      • Darkheartz on 06/03/2024 - 12:13

        I have to disagree. Between my 6 accounts the 4 I have used got the offer, and the 2 I haven't used did not. Whatever the algorithm - it's not this.

        Yeah Woolies is a lot better for this, although min spend has jumped to $100 at Woolies this week and $50 at Coles soooo looks like I'm doing the one shop

        • Peck on 01/03/2024 - 12:21

          I almost never get these from Woolies.
          I scan my card every time chasing the double points as an 'EDR Extra' member.
          I may have to stop scanning except for my monthly 10% off shop.

        Woolworths rewards sucks, so unreliable, they gave me a booster:
        Week 1 "shop before 25 Feb" to get 1000 points.
        Week 2 shop between 26 Feb - 3 March for another 1000.

        I shopped on 19th. Looked in app, didn't work. I spoke to customer service and they said that Week 1 was 23 Feb to 25 Feb. Wtf?
        A) Why was I able to boost it outside the period,
        B) it said "before 25 Feb", and;
        C) 3 days is not a week.
        Online wouldn't budge so I called and they gave me the points "as a gesture of goodwill". Waste of 30 mins of my life.

        • RogueWolf on 29/02/2024 - 14:53

          got those offers too, they are 1 cent spends & get 1000pts, then also got spend $50 x 2 weeks for 3500pts, can't complain with that

          my guess would be you didn't activate it but thought you did

          Why was I able to boost it outside the period,

          This deal you can also do that..

          it said "before 25 Feb"

          And it was before 25 Feb.

          3 days is not a week.

          This deal also has a different period to the others.. (Week 1 is 10 days, Weeks 2-4 are 7)

          they gave me the points

          So you still got them.

          Waste of 30 mins of my life.

          How much did this waste? 30 mins in the scheme of things isn't a lot.

          Now don't get me wrong there's a million things you can complain about with Woolies but their rewards system works? They didn't have to give you the points..

        • Slo20 on 01/03/2024 - 04:54

          I wouldn’t say the rewards are unreliable, they always offer me deals in advance to activate. I actually prefer that so I can plan ahead.

          That particular deal was bizarre though. Usually they list the start date clearly but this time I had to go looking in the T&C’s when the offer presented to me. The terms did say week 1 was 23/02-25/02 so I can see why they pushed back on you.

    Got $60x4.

    Was getting $50 a year ago and then it spiked to $150 for 3000 points, going to $70x4 for 10,000 points. And now $60x4.

    Just have to keep yourself off off Coles to get these targeted offers.

    • Bdawg on 29/02/2024 - 13:00

      Get another card.

      • nepalicurryinahurry on 29/02/2024 - 13:04

        Current card is fine. It’s not outrageous anymore. $60 will go back to $50 again.

    • billdsl on 29/02/2024 - 14:00

      Wasn't my experience. Had 4 x 60 last time round, and got the 4 x 50 this time

      Was expecting higher minimum spend this time based off comments on here, but as always YMMV

      • nepalicurryinahurry on 29/02/2024 - 16:48

        True. I was mad at myself for buying GCs to find minimum spend shoot upwards. All’s well now.

        • Yola on 01/03/2024 - 07:37

          Yes, I was getting terrible offers for nearly a year but gone back to $50 x 4 for 10k points again.

  • Platinum Card on 29/02/2024 - 11:27

    For me the options were:
    Collect 10,000 Flybuys for 4x$120 (or $50 off your shop)
    or
    Collect 20,000 Flybuys for 4x$170 (or $100 off your shop)

    Previous one I activated was 10,000 for 4x$60. Ill have to wait and hope it goes down to 4x$60 again.

    • ThePointsGuru on 29/02/2024 - 12:49
      +4

      It's based on your spending habits. Coles and Woolies always push you towards spending slightly more than what you spent last time. So, if you spend $150 a week on one Flybuys card, there is very little chance that you will get an offer that requires less than $150 to spend.

      If you are spending more than $50 on one flybuys card, try to break the spend on multiple flybuys cards.

  • firestint on 29/02/2024 - 11:30

    Normally get this offer but didn't get it this round. Instead I got 1000 points for swiping at least 3x in Coles until end of March

    • Iwantthatbargain on 29/02/2024 - 12:54

      Same here. I got the offer of 500 points for 2 shop. So I will pass

  • cryptowiz on 29/02/2024 - 11:33

      The overspend and the markup costs you more as it drives inflation which stifles competition. Which in turn raises interest rates, mortgage repayments and rent.

        That’s not correct. Once I activated and spent on Thursday and it didn’t count toward the offer. It is usually starts from Friday and they give 10 days for 1st week spend

  • macola51 on 29/02/2024 - 12:56
    +2

    We completed the recent 4 X $50 offer a couple/few weeks back. At the start when activating the offer, I chose the $50 into my account, rather than the 10k points. Once chosen, selection can't be changed. In hindsight, I think the points is the better choice because you can trade them for gift cards from other retailers (eg. Bunnings), which last at least 3 years.
    Under the T&C for the $50 option, I had to spend a minimum $50.05 within 30 days of the $50 being credited to my account, and the 30 days commences from the day it's credited. Problem was, there's no way to check whether the $50 is there!
    So if you go the option for $50 credit to your account, don't forget to spend the minimum required within that 30 day period.

    • harshbdmmaster718 on 29/02/2024 - 16:48
      +1

      wow that sucks. the $50 expires in 30 days?

      I prefer just collecting points and converting to flybuys cash. that way you can use it wherever you want coles, officeworks etc and don't need to plan ahead and be stuck with credit you can use at one shop but not the other.

      family member encountered something weird at bunnings btw. they are part of the flybuys program and you can scan and collect points. but at the (human) register they were told they can't pay with flybuys cash. very weird. the explanation was "our system/machines don't support it". so in the case of bunnings maybe it is smarter to convert points to giftcards if you shop there a lot.

    • Maltopia on 29/02/2024 - 18:41
      +1

      Points is better. If you get $50, it can appear when you don’t want it to, and get automatically deducted off an online shop when they process a payment.

      Then your spend X over four weeks is screwed as you are $50 short on one of the shops and you have to spend X again.

    Hoping someone has experienced this.

    I made an online order (first time thanks to the coles plus offer).

    The order I made is just above $50, but an item is unavailable, pushing me 3 bucks under my spend now, will this count to not count as meeting spend for the week?

    • Yola on 08/03/2024 - 19:29

      I have had this happen many times. You need to continue with the other 3 weeks. Make sure you have all receipts. I also keep an SC of activation. You will not get the points automatically and need to contact them by phone or email. The latter is what I do and I attach all the documentation. I have always received points from over a dozen claims.

          That's great then sounds like it may work. Just check you receive the points.

          More than likely you will get the same notification when you do week 2. If that’s the case, no need to even contact them.

        no need to email, just call them - they told me that they know that online orders can be only partially fulfilled, so if that’s the reason for just $30 being spent instead of $50, then they’ll count that week’s target as being met, with no documentation required :)

    Do you think this would work if I paid in gift card? I assume it would be fine, can't find anything in the T&Cs that say you can't.
