Discovered this when trying to use a remaining $1 balance on a Westfield gift card from this deal.
Steps:
Enjoy:)
And the guy behind you will have Harsh & Deep feelings
i know a guy named harshdeep…
12th man vibes right there.
I knew a Mandeep.
I knew a guy called Mancomb Seepgood
my neigbhor is sikh and his name is suckdeep
And the guy behind you will have Harsh & Deep feelings
I hope you have private health insurance as I feel a couple of broken bones coming on
Did you mean Hardeep.
Once met an Indian guy called Hardick (at Aldi cashier) as well as Deep and Harsh
Also an elderly Chinese man with a name tag: Yung Tu Soon
He might like harsh deep feelings, with a bit of Sandeep on the side
Dont get me started on ramming deep
And the guy behind you will have Harsh & Deep feelings
Not if you share the hack with them.. share and care :)
where is my knife….
In da machete bin ?
Challenge accepted…
I have 60L car with current rate say $3 = I would need do it for only 144 times to save $15
Challenge not accepted then…
Just be glad you are not behind a truck with tanks up to 200 plus litres…it would take some time to complete the challenge…..🤔
Wonder what it would be for 90L 🧐
Hahaha thanks for the video link. Was much needed break. 😅
Just chill Dhondu!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is the woolworths self checkout rounding error all over again.
I'm waiting to witness that one folk who availed this deal to full their tank.
If only it worked with $100
I don't see why not. You should be able to get $100.25, great value
No……
How much petrol should cost before you give up and use this hack? $4 or $5 a litre?
If my rough calculations are correct at $4 a litre with a 60l tank, doing it 240 times will save you $48. But it will probably take 2 hours.
$48 post tax for 2 hrs is higher than minimum wage. Good deal! 😅
Obviously it doesn't make sense, but then again there isn't a shortage of people rummaging through bins for cans to get 10c.
At $4 a litre, this hack would only reduce the effective cost to $3 a litre
EV would be much cheaper
EV has a much higher upfront cost, no?
@MichQ: While they may not cost much different when comparing to another new car, a new car has a much larger upfront cost compared to a tank of fuel.
@Quarter Pounder: At $4 a litre you’re probably looking at $14k a year for petrol.
For a town car, BYD Atto 1 is 27k drive away. So that petrol cost would only take two years to pay off a new car.
Obviously a bit longer if you factor in electricity.
@ozbking: Yeah, have an EV on order at the moment, higher upfront cost, and the base atto 1 is missing essentially battery cooling tech.
Insurance is slightly inflated, but enough to brush off.
The higher the petrol price, the worse this gets. At $5/L, you get a cup of petrol. Assuming 10L/100km fuel economy, your car cant even get to the other side of Lidcombe. How many times would you need to fill to recoup the trip to/from Costco?
lmao true ozbargainer
Seems like a pretty poor $ payback rate for your loss of time and dignity.
for your loss of time and dignity.
and risk of being attacked by the plumber waiting in the ute behind you.
Can’t spell Ranger without anger
Whenever we see a Ranger doing something dangerous we tell "Ranger Danger!"
Ranger or Ranga?
Whenever I see one (which is often), I say out loud… "RRRRRRRrrrrrrr… ANGER!!!!!"
Are there really that many people with SDS?
OzBargainers sold their dignity for less. Don't worry about that
about that 2 cents earned clicking on an ad daily for a wk. People don't realise they are going to spend $$$ more in the future just because of the frequent brand exposure
Wow.. everyone in queue will be pleased to see me doing this 😂
Driving 45 mins to my nearest Costco to sign up for a $60 membership and save me $0.25
This is the way
$65 not $60.. it has been $65 for nearly a year now :)
Solution to offset the membership cost: buy a boat with a 260L+ tank and fill that up too.
BIG NEWS FOR THE UNEMPLOYED:
Rare case where refilling a car will be slower than charging an EV 😂
Having seen we the lines recently, a 15min wait to charge an EV looks like an express lane.
I like the cut of your jib.
What's a jib?
Arrrrgh, it's me fore sail.
Ha, promote that man.
How much do you cost?
Gonna make the 20 car waiting line line really pissed off while I do this!
You would definitely be rammed by a ranger if you actually tried this
Costco lines are big enough cars can easily overtake and park.
Chuck hazard light and some cones
Traffic cones?
I scream cones
lol. great one. deal is targeted as not whole community here have Costco membership.
That's the beauty of it.
You go in, sign up, fill up, then ask for your membership to be refunded!
You forgot the cost of tine
Tine is priceless
Tine is prizeless?
Tine is momey.
Well fork that!
Do they have a .5L minimum dispense amount? That could be what's tripping it up.
Use the HSBC everyday card while you are at it. 1.25$ patrol for $0.98!
Cost me 88c using the westfield gift card!
Just out of curiosity, how many times did you repeat it, OP?
A true blue Ozbargainer
there are easier ways to steal petrol
Hahahhaha
This is so funny
Pretty sure they will ask you leave or the rest of the ppl will make you leave
Why aliens hate earth
prtty sure the minimum accurate delivery is between 2L and 5L.
youre prob getting not even what youre paying for
Yeah I thought 2L minimum
You cant be serious….
In b4 belongs in forums
Note that, insert card because if you tap at Costco for fuel they take a $100 holding deposit (unless things have recently changed)
The hardest thing for this hack is to find at least 50x Westfield gift cards with $1 balance. The second hardest thing is…. well you all know I bet… is to find time to fill 50 times
Since costco already got your membership details, they be after you missing dollar 😝
So that's why I have to wait that long! 🤣
Wow, this is truly next level ozb in the fuel crisis. Let go boys, ozb party at costco tonight yeah
lmao they have my info already. but tempting with this current situation
