Absolut have a promotion with BWS, Dan Murphy's and Woolworths where you can buy two 700ml bottles of Absolut (one must be flavoured) and receive a Jawbone Jambox for $50 including postage and handling. Woolworths and BWS currently have 700ml Absolut bottles for $37 each.
If you prefer, you can get an Absolut Unique bottle for $35.90 and a flavoured bottle for $39.99 at Dan Murphy's, for a total of $125.89.
First 740 claims accepted, and there is a countdown on the website.
So you can choose colours?
Yes, and they will attempt to supply your choice, but they do reserve the right to give you whatever the hell they want :)
Yep
Rookie Question, can i buy both flavoured?
Yes I bought Vanilla and Pear, went through fine and I just received the final notification informing my claim was successful.
thanks mate, gonna pick it up some up today.
200 gone since last night, 560~ left, be quick :) these are usually $150 for jambox alone
Such a sweeeeetttt deal!!! BWS Spencer St station (melbourne) have 2 bottles for $72 (even though its marked as $40 per bottle on the shelf), ended up getting an original & vanilla!
Just redeemed speaker on the site…. aweeesooomeeeeeee!
Thanks for the heads up. I'll pop over there this lunch time.
FYI, I just processed one for my little brother in Hobart and it went through with no issues. He paid $72 at BWS as well down there.
Regards
Daniel
Same price - 2 bottles for $72 at Woolworths Liquor Docklands! I got original and vanilla too - vodka party!
yeah they are rebranding the Woolworths Liquor all to BWS so they will have same prices
fyi theyre also running a headphone promo:
http://absolut.claimit.com.au/urbanears/promo2
I sent mine in around 3 weeks ago…hasn't been delivered yet but funnily enough i've run out of vodka already
I wonder if you can use the same receipt twice?…
Different stores for the headphone deal. Check out the store drop down list for full list.
Apparently "Urbanears Plattan Headphones valued at $99.95" and you need to pay $14.95 postage and handling. I think this Jawbone deal looks even better.
looks like $72 for two at all BWS will try and get there for a bottle of Vanilla and Raspberry. Not a big vodka fan so hope these taste good.
Thanks op. got mine.
Seems pretty rudimentary but I'd say they'll run a spreadsheet with store and receipt numbers.
Trying to claim twice isn't in the spirit of a good promo.
And the amazon reviews got me over the line. That and the fact it's $129 in the states. For $50 it's a great deal. I needed a speaker for the bedroom. And I drink vodka!
Thanks OP. Just got one.
Anybody know where to find the "unique claim ID" ? I got an email with a transaction ID, but can't find a claim ID anywhere. Putting in the transaction ID to track my claim gets me nowhere.
It'll come later in another email
Unique claim ID email received a day later. Cheers!
Just went out and bought my bottles, chucked $60 on my Load&Go Card paid for it. Then it took $50 and declined me :S Won't let me go through again because of "insufficient funds" >:I
Nice.
So I went through the process, paid the $50 and got an invoice back. Anyone know where I find my unique claim id, so I can track my order?
It'll come later in another email
sweet, thanks
Awesome! thanks op..
Claimed mine
Got mine. Thanks.
Now how can I track my order? Jk lol…
125 black ones left.
I wondered what the number was after the colour. I thought it was just a product code - stock count actually makes more sense.
lol i also thought it was a product code too!
About 80 Black Diamonds gone. It's proving to be the most popular. I went with Grey Hex because I prefer the design, although I would have preferred a hybrid Black Hex. I figured most my electrical equipment is black, so why not go for something a little different, without being too different or over the top like the Blue Wave and Red Dot.
ok cats, just ordered mine. 1st choice liquor (coles equivalent of woolies dans) are selling absolut flavours for $34.90. dans apparently price beats, not just match, so the customer service guy sells me each one for $33.90 total $67.80. just go in with a print out of the prices/photo of absolut from the 1st choice website.
no doubt a 1st Choice must be within a few km of the DM store though to price match which is not possible for me
$72 at BWS is decent price and have $40 of Wish cards to spend. and there are more BWS stores around.
Got mine last night, price beat Vintage Cellars with Dan Murphys for $68. Paid with ING card for 5% off, down to $64.60. Sold the Vodka today to a mate for $55. Total cost for jawbone speaker: $59.60. Very happy with that.
I did the same and the staff didnt even know who vintage cellars are…after showing them the manager did it at the price of $69.90, I asked him arnt they suppose to beat it, he said that he did (by 10 cents). I could not be bothered arguing should it not be a certain percentage but just thought IDE give a heads up that not everyone that works at dan murphies easily price beats…
The idiot I saw at Dan Murphy's only price matched. Stores like this shit me, they have a one meter high sign behind the counter saying they will beat any price and then stuff you around. Dodgy Dans!
Myers is just as bad, they advertise their policy and then say they will not match anyone because it is too cheap! And that is to match stores like Harvey Norman and Officeworks.
Officeworks was once really bad, but since they now quote 5% off they are now one of the best.
Masters is also good with their 10% discount and have even had them price match Costco.
Hi guys, got two of the required vodkas from BWS before midnight. I tried claiming it from the website not long ago but seem to have failed after I entered all the details required as I didnt get any confirmation details. Has anyone exprienced the same problem? I tried entering again but im stuck with entering the birthdate legal thing in the beginning. Please help, Thanks…
Yeah, I tried going back into the website but couldn't get past the birthdate check. Try going direct to this link to claim again: http://absolut.claimit.com.au/jambox/promo2
But I imagine if your first claim didn't work, the reason might be related to the birthdate check not working, and therefore you may still encounter an error. If so, try calling them on 1800 855 569 or emailing [email protected].
I had the same issue last night but I sorted it out eventually.
Make sure you have cookies enabled, disable any ad blockers, try a different browser.
It's best to enter from the main page so it remembers that you have already entered your birthdate:
http://absolut.claimit.com.au/jambox
Make sure you click "Remember me" when you enter your birthdate the first time!
You will know it has worked when you reach the page where you need to enter your credit card details for payment and upload your copy of receipt.
Doesn't work. I tried all that in a few different browsers and it just goes back to the birth date thing.
Tried going to the direct claim link but unfortunately, it goes back to the birthdate legal limit page. Ill just give them a call later today. Damnz, was looking forward and getting excited with this jambox, i hope i dont miss out LOL!
Thanks for your help…
See reply above.
I noticed the site was unresponsive myself, I wanted to see how many had been claimed so far (only 200, I thought this was ozbargain? do we not drink here or something???)
anyhow, I looked through the T&C to find the big money provision, which would be this one;
however afaik, they also have an obligation to stop spamming you when you tell them to.
on a more positive note, at this point they look to have forgotten a provision to stop you claiming on the headphones and speaker. whoops.
The website countdown is delayed by approximately 540 units due to approval process. :)
really?
Does it mention on the website about the number of claims yet to be processed?
I got a mail last night regarding the payment being processed. Hoping my order gets through…
I didnt see any details regarding the number of claims to be processed. But initially when we enter the website after entering the age limit page, there is that indicator suggesting of how many speakers are left. The last time i checked, there was 500plus left.
Hey guys, its back on track again. I rang the claims department @ 0945. He suggested to wait for a few hours and it will be back on. I gave it another go @1010 and it worked! Filled up the claim form and paid the $50 fee. In return, they sent me a transaction recipt via email.
Good luck gUys! Black still has 90 odd left & the rest(grey,blue,re) has over 100 pieces left.
dont got to dan murphys they are a rip off, $39.99 a bottle there! BWS is 2 for $72 got raspberry and vanilla
Agreed. The last couple of times I've been to DM for stuff the prices had crept up something shocking.
got 2 for $72 at BWS 1 normal 1 Blueberry/Pomegranate - had a couple of slugs of the flavour and quite delicious !
Put the claim in
It showed the following count reminders for OzB info
Black Diamond 45
Blue Wave 145
Red Dot 135
Grey Hex 144
I got Grey Hex - it seemed best for fitting in with most environments.
Also ad in todays Courier Mail - full page BWS ad shows the promo bottom right corner - so migt be more players today…
Awesome deal! Can't recommend jambox highly enough! If you are after a Bluetooth speaker this is the one….
claimed the jambox and credit card was charged yesterday, how long to receive confirmation email??
Took about 24 hours for mine to come.
i got my confirmation within a few hours
ALSO BIG NOTE - Make sure your receipt shows one of the bottles is a flavoured one - otherwise the promo people need to check with the retailer (apparently)
thanks just got confirmation, need new photo, forgot to include bottom of receipt :p
raspberry flavour is really nice. but cant tolerate it straight, needs lemonade.
Check your spam folder, thats where my confirmation email went.
BTW… any vodka lovers want to buy 2 x 700mL bottles of Absolut (plain and vanilla) for $60? :D
Haymarket or Lilyfield (SYD) pickup.
60 yen, done deal :p
$50 and you have a deal
Check your messages, davem.
Dear PissLUR,
We would like to confirm that you have successfully redeemed your Portable Jambox Speaker, which will be sent to the address nominated in your claim submission online.
Cheers, grabbed 2 bottles tonight, plain & wild tea (cause i'd never tasted it before) and claimed a red Jambox.
Might grab a couple more tomorrow and claim one for the GF under her name.
Be careful, think it's one per household. Maybe use a mate's place for delivery.
Yeah i should have clarified, i will be claiming the 2nd jambox at her house
2 bottles for $60 @ Huntsville (peach and pear) let me know if your interested as i'm not a drinker myself.
cheers
$50 and you have a deal
Black ones are all gone, about an even split remaining of all the other colours.
Anyone want my two bottles of Absolut? Plain and Vanilla flavours, $50 pickup, northern subrubs of Melbourne :D
Very sneaky shop attendant in bonnyrigg woolies. I purchased the 2 bottles and whilst he was handing me the receipt he hesitated for a few seconds then asked me if i needed my receipt. So sneaky!
Same thing happened to me at a different store, I didn't think anything of it at the time though.
takes them 5 seconds to print a duplicate.
True but awkward questions could be asked if both the buyer and the shop attendant tries to claim using the same receipt.
Dear PissLUR,
We are pleased to inform you that we have dispatched your Jawbone Jambox Speaker - Red Dot via Fastway.
Thank your being part of our promotion.
Regards
Pernod Ricard Australia Marketing Team

Did you e-mail them or are they sending those e-mails out automatically?
automatic notification from their system.
PissLUR what day did you enter your claim?
04/04 claim submitted
05/04 claim approved
02/04 submitted
03/04 approved
08/04 dispatched
FYI - Log into the promo's website with your claim number and you'll see your tacking number (two letters & ten numbers) then head over to http://www.fastway.com.au/courier-services/track-your-parcel to track! Delivery is 1-2 business days between major east coast cities, 5-10 days for WA and NT.
My tracking number says it has no scans recorded. It's been the same for 24 hours. 5-10days is a bit crazy for WA, but I guess I can't complain since Absolut sent them out pretty quickly.
It's since updated.
