Yep, $1.50 recycled paper bag fee per order.
When I did click and collect for coles I said no to bags. I bought like 50 packs of beef jerky and they bagged them anyway (free).
Damn made my monthly grocery shopping at Coles yesterday :(
Remember to set your reminders everyone.
Membership does not persist after you cancel, so would need to cancel before next charge manually.
My current sub ends a day after this promo ends 🙃
I tried cancelling, but theres sadly no way to apply the promo with a current sub (like onepass can)
Sounds like time for a second account
I only use one coles/fb's for the entire household, so worth a try for sure :)
Added the promo code, showing $0 and still asking to pay $7!! What a shitty experience!
If u read the comments …u won’t actually get charged relax
Yeh that's what I thought in the first place, but I used a Up card with $0 and it went through fine and no charge.
can existing coles plus members use this? If so, how?
Only if your current membership is scheduled to end within the next 6 days. (If you cancel, the remainder of your membership month will continue until finished)
Your Coles Plus free trial period runs until Jun 14, 2025. Then, you'll receive 100% off your next 3 monthly payments.
Does this mean my Coles Plus membership trial is valid for 4 months?
Correct. That's my situation as well.
create a new account but wont let me add the code so can only get 1 month :(
was it a new flybuys account as well?
yes, new flybuys account as well.
Thanks, I was going to try as well so appreciate your comment
@OutOfTime: manged to get it. i was entering wrong code - dont use the code in OP, for saver the code is wrong in the OP description
@expertreader: Nice! Will try now tks!
Update - been trying for 30m+ to no luck, linking my new Fb's to coles keeps saying 'Something Went wrong' and its impossible to do anything….
@expertreader: Did you have issues linking the new fb's account, i keep getting error messages? I'm embarrassed i've spent +2hrs and still not done a simple task…
Something went wrong
We are unable to link your Flybuys account right now. Please try again later.
Planning to have coles plus save for 4 months (incld. trial period) how do i do that?
I believe there is no free trial for Coles Plus Saver, only Coles Plus.
Ok. i sign up for coles saver plus, where can i see membership end date?
The membership end date is not displayed on the Coles membership page, which is a bummer. You can find it in the email you received.
@vivmahi: I just signed up to Coles Plus Saver trial, but there are no dates mentioned in the email. It just says "Congratulations, your promotion has been redeemed! You'll receive 100% off your next 3 monthly payments".
Likewise, it doesn't mention a renewal date anywhere in my account on the Coles website. Should I just assume the renewal date is 14/08/2025?
@mboy: @mboy, I am unsure about Coles Plus Saver because I enrolled for Coles Plus without the Saver. I received the following information in my mailbox: Your Coles Plus free trial period runs until Jun 14, 2025. Then, you'll receive 100% off your next 3 monthly payments.~
Joined both. Can anyone clarify that you get 3 months free on Plus and 4 months on Saver (1 month free trial and 3 months from the code)? Emails said 'you will receive 100% off your next 3 monthly payments' for Saver and 'Your Coles Plus free trial period runs until Jun 14, 2025. Then, you'll receive 100% off your next 3 monthly payments' for Plus.
Also the t&C mentions 1 month free stacking in the 'Plus' section only.
interesting. I signed up for Saver (1st) which just says today is the billing date. I signed up for plus (2nd) and all email says is your 1st month is free. No mention of 3 months free…
Other way around, 1 month free trial + 3 free months with this offer for Coles Plus. Only 3 free months with this offer for Coles Plus Saver (no free trial)
Does anyone has issue logging into coles? The one time 2FA code that it sends to mobile was never received…
Yes, I had the same issue. Just close the browser and start again, or try from Incognito mode.
<< Coles plus: Unlimited free delivery over $50 >> even as a member, the free delivery only purchases are more than $50 ? is my understanding right ?
Noticed that too. It's $250 minimum if you don't have coles plus. So there is a benefit
whats the end date for this offer?
thinking of using is from June
Sign up by May 20
thx!
That’s a scam.
Coles subscription would need you to enter your credit card details by you or select PayPal. It would never ask you to send money
I entered my credit card it ask me to type the code to send money to coles,I tried Paypal is works fine,But Ive cancelled the service because looks like a scam also like Amazon it will let you keep the free trial but Coles just cancel it straight away,maybe thats Australian way to do business
Care to explain how you have determined that it is a scam when Coles is one of the biggest supermarkets in Australia that’s also own by Wesfarmers?
If you have entered the code, you should see as $0, but a credit card is needed for future payments, which you can set a reminder to cancel before your subscription ends
@BargainsGrabber: Yes,I see free when I type in the code at checkout but send me message ask $7 and $19 thats called a scam,if it isn't for free then ask me to pay is not a scam but anyway use paypal is free without issue so I signed up and cancelled just to be peace if got charged without knowing
@yuisakas: Did you even apply the code? You can’t just type the code and expect it to automatically discount it
Sounds like a user error to me
@BargainsGrabber: Yes,I applied the code and shows its 3 months free but when I checkout my phone received bank message BUT paypal is fine I have checked my balance,but just to be safe I cancelled my sup
@yuisakas: FFS mate, surely you know how to read the comments - this has been brought up numerous times, you actually wont get charged.
Am i doing something wrong here i cant get both to stack?
Membership summary
Promo code
SAVERFREE
The promo code you entered is invalid or expired
Have to go back to the home page and click on the plus saver label.
so each is different but both are free so you sign up to both
why dont they just have a coles VIP which includes both benefits with a free code for 3 months and thats it
But both schemes normally cost money, and are aimed at different types of shoppers, not much point combining the schemes just for a special offer.
SAVERFREE says
The promo code you entered is invalid or expired
You're probably doing what I did and trying to use that promo for Coles Plus instead.
I was able to register. And then when I cancelled to ensure I do not get biled after 3 months, I get this
You’ve cancelled your membership
You can still enjoy all your member benefits until 14 May 2025.
Damn it. I have to go through the process again.
good to know - your sacrifice is appreciated
Set a reminder on this post for reminding myself cancelling the membership.
I did not know we can set reminder. Thanks
yes not sure how do you that lol
i normally just put a reminder on my phone for any deals that i need to unsubscribe before you get charged the full price lol
Still confused based on some replies.. so can or can't you just create a new Coles and Flybuys and make multiple trial accounts?
From what I've read, it appears that if it's an existing Flybuys account it works, but if it's a newly created Flybuys account it fails.
I used my old FlyBuys. Just created new account
Already on the three months, 65 days to go. Is it possible to renew or add on?
So I have a current offer of join the "Coles thingy' and get 2 x or 10x points.
Do I sign up to that first, then double , then triple down?
Joined. Thank you
I have signed up for both, but looks like I have done something wrong. None of my emails have any mention of 3 free months like others. Anyone else in same boat?
For Coles plus it says, Your Coles Plus free trial period runs until Jun 14, 2025. Your firstpayment of $19 will be deducted on Jun 14, 2025.
For Coles plus saver it says, Your first billing date is May 14, 2025. We’ve processed your first payment of $7.
Seems like you didn't enter the promo codes.
Sure did. In both scenarios. In fact, if promo code wasn't entered than I should have been charged $7 for 'saver', which is not the case. No charge.
Does anyone know how signing up to these affects the other offers you get sent? I'm not a big shopper.
nice…
Signed up for Coles Plus Saver using 'SAVERFREE' code. Received the following email after signing up:
Thanks for joining Coles Plus Saver.
Congratulations, your promotion has been redeemed! You'll receive 100% off your next 3 monthly payments~
Details on your next subscription fee are available in your Coles Plus Saver account.
Thanks,
Your Coles team
Also can see a $0.00 transaction attributed to Coles on my bank ac. I guess the summary is that since Coles doesn't offer any trial for Plus saver compared to Plus we can only get three months of free subscription. And don't forget to set the reminder to cancel on time.
… or use a single-use card.
Has anyone tried placing an order after subscribing to the memberships?
I don't see the option to select the 10% Saver discount at checkout.
Coles delivery has been the must frustrating experience ever… I had only 5 of 22 items delivered, called and was told they'd send another delivery driver to drop off the remaining items in 30mins, and hour and half later I called up asking if they were still coming and they tell me they just credited me instead… So now I'm missing a tonne of stuff and it's too late to get anything delivered tonight unless I go through DoorDash which is more expensive…
EDIT: When I tried to create a new order for tomorrow there was no option to even use credits…
I'm reading the T&Cs for Coles Plus Saver. It says that "cancelling your membership will void this offer". To me that means that if I cancel for example the day before the 3 months free period is up, I will be charged $21. Or am I interpreting this incorrectly?
I used a Revolut disposable card to sign up to both, I've destroyed that card now so I'm assuming I can forget about having to cancel these programs in a few months yeah?
Worked for me for 3 months of Coles Plus even though I was paying for Coles Plus Saver
Is there a way to see my Coles Plus Saver first payment date?
Keeps trying to charge me even with the promo code and checkout page saying freee
Coles Plus, my most used subscription. Given how few grocery items it takes to hit $50 minimum, and frequently having one hour delivery slots available …. Win. Worth the $19/m, but better for free.
Another way for Duopoly to scam more profit from you
First it was woolworths with "boost" for rewards, now Coles
How about you just lower my food bill by your 9% profit margin
I never had a coles account. Tried the workflow of signing up for one, and the workflow makes it seem you need to sign up to the 1 year commitment before applying the free code. Am I doing it incorrectly? I just want to get the trial for 1 month and than 3 months for free to try it out.
Looks like they were trying to charge my card for $199.
For people who used PayPal to sign up, you can go to your payment settings and disable automatic payment to Coles. That way, even if you forget to cancel in 3 months time and Coles tries to charge you, it will be blocked.
why is everyone jumping up and defending (vehemently and so passionately) Coles and Woolworths when someone says something negative about them?
Coles charges $1.50 from memory
