Can we use these cards to buy ipads?
Yea, you can.
You can use them to buy anything Myer sells
And also buy happiness - something Myer does not sell
Wonder if they let pay myer gift card with coles&myer gift card.
Gift card Cannot use to purchase gift card!
And this is why we didn't invite you to the most recent secret OzBargain party.
logged in to just vote on your comments. Just couldn't go away.
Thinking like a true OzBargainer :). dont think you can do it.
It's more that you can't buy the combined Myer & Coles Group gift cards with a Myer giftcard because the revenue would be going out of Myer.
Sounds silly to say, but you can buy Myer giftcards with Myer giftcards - useful if combining multiple gift card plastic (and also to extend the expiry date, but only recommended if you have gift cards to combine).
If you can buy Myers giftcards with Myers gift cards, then buy $5000 get $500 bonus. Then use them to buy $5500 get $550 free, and so on and so on. Somehow I don't think they will let you :P
Okay, yeah, maybe not in this type of situation :P
Yes you can.
I have done it before.
But not the other way around (use Myer Giftcard to buy Coles Myer Giftcard)
Coles Myer Gift Card -> Myer Gift card is a downgrade (less shops)
what is the expiration of these cards?
2 years
Apology for the silly question,
if I plan to buy an ipad, should I spend 500 first or I can use this gift card so I only pay $450?
Yes, you spend $500 to buy $550 of Myer gift cards. Then use your gift cards to buy the iPad.
this brain of yours, can I have it… I should've think of that!
Thanks!
Yes, but make sure you get then to pricematch the best price avaialable on the day, so you get even better value
How much is the iPad 4 16gb wifi at myer? Would they match big w prices? If so I can get one $500 gift card as have another $50 for other use.
Yes they will pricematch
Their best price is 498. They wont price match lower they said that is their cost.
If that's there best price I would just buy it.
Can you use your gift cards to buy more gift cards?
Can I spend $5000 and get $5500 worth of gift-cards. Buy an ipad and then return my $5000 worth of gift cards and Bam I got a free ipad!!!
Most gift cards your would find have a condition 'cannot be exchanged for cash'. You may find a similar condition for these cards too.
I did not understand your free iPad logic. Could you please explain.
Thanks.
Use $5000 to buy gift cards. Get bonus $500. Use bonus $500 to purchase ipad. Exchange $5000 worth of gift cards for cash…
Highly unlikely that it will work like many of the other 'creative' ideas in this thread; if it does, the system is so flawed and good on ya for scoring a bargain.
You cannot returm Myer gift vouchers to exchange or refund, even with the receipt! :( I just received $1000 worth for Myer which is 100% useless to me so already tried this.
Try it first and let us know how you do it. GOOD LUCK!
Ok need advice from the OzBargainer Maths Wizzes.
Is it better to buy these Myer Gift Cards or put something on Myer Credit Card for 2 years interest free instead?
For example if I buy something for $2000, it'll only cost me $1818.20 in gift cards, or is better to put that $2000 on Credit Card 2 years interest free and put the $2K into my mortgage?
I'm trying to work it out but my maths skills are a bit rusty.
People always say it's better to put it in your mortgage but I can't seem to work it out if using the above example…?
Okie, to answer your question. Can you invest $2000 and earn $180 (about 9% p.a) over the next two years. If you can then put on interest free. At the moment home loan is less than 6% p.a so it is unlikely that you can invest and earn more than 9% p.a.
I'll put my money on the gift cards :)
Isn't it meant to be 4.5% p.a, given that it's $180 over TWO years? :S
U r rite. Better put on interest free providing that you don't need to make repayment to the Myer credit card.
If it is interest free but need to make repayment over the next two years in installment (like $100 per month) then gift cards would still be better.
Ah thanks, that's what I thought.
Somehow at the back of my mind it's telling me to put the $2K in the mortgage is better but I couldn't work out the numbers.
Pay the gift card with your myer card. You will get free interest on 1818.20
LOL that would be fantastic if I could!
@badmiyamotofinger interest free is not always interest free. As the account you open has account adminstration free of $2.5 to $4.5 every month. so, you would be paying mininum of $60 in fees. reutrn after deducting $60 isnt worth the hassle and having additional entry in your credit book.
Good point. Forgot about that! Cheers.
if i bought a $500 gift voucher with the $50 bonus, claim it on a 16GB ipad. can i still use the receipt as a tax invoice when i leave the country next week to claim TRS GST back at the airport?
Yes. I've done it with a laptop once. :)
And pay GST when you bring the iPad back to Australia….
But… no one I know does that…
Buy gift cards (effective 9% discount), await random 10% off mac sales from any retailer and get price match (+10% discount) - travel overseas for TRS (+10% discount off)
Gives you approx 27% off a mac :)
A Mac Mini would be fine. Hate to be carrying an iMac or Mac Pro while on holidays… :-)
Just walked down to myer in sydney cbd and walked out with a brand new ipad 64gb wifi! I bought $700 worth of gift cards and got an extra $70. Bought the new ipad with that and still have $11 in change. Thank you OP.
Can you purchase gift cards on a credit card? Ie if I use my NAB credit card then I also get velocity points aswell I guess.
Yep, i paid amex
Nice
500 for 550, price match iPad 4, win
500 for 550, price match iPad 4 "WHEN Target has 5% off iPads", win
Do they have paywave EFTPOS?
Is this nationwide? Looks like you have just made my day :-)
