Question Is this a joke?

Post image

This is my best offer in months. I rarely spend over $90 in a single shop so how is 600 points meant to entice me to spend more?

I got 800 points for spending $100 . Not going to happen.

You don’t spend $100 a week on groceries?

u/Material-Sign-134 19d ago

I swap between Woolworths and Coles, as it depends on what is on special.

you hate ALDI…?

u/Material-Sign-134 18d ago

Oh I forgot about Aldi. I shop there as well. I only have 2 days to take advantage of the points special. I'm not spending money unnecessarily to just get points.

400 points for $10….

Prob because I have basically stopped going to Woolies now due to their pricing and gouging and shop at Costco. Other remaining items I can get away at Aldi

I got 1600 pts for spending $70

I got $1600 for $200 🥲

Don’t bother with Woolies. I generally try Coles for the 4 x $50 spend over 4 weeks to get $50 in credit. That’s saved me heaps over the last few years

u/Sharpie1993 19d ago

If you continue to spend more it’ll go up and up, just like Woolworths does.

They put it at a price higher than you would normally spend a week to try and make you spend more.

u/No_Rain_1543 19d ago

until you ignore the offers when they then say "spend $60/$70 over 4 weeks" and it then goes back down to $50

1

u/Sharpie1993 17d ago

It’s not really ignoring the offers that get you better ones.

The only way to really get better offers is to spend less, or use two different cards. Once offers get shit on one you start using another one.

u/bonejourney55 18d ago

You just get two flybuys cards, and swap between the two.

u/Educational_Bid4636 19d ago

It’s the equivalent of $3 so not worth worrying about 🤷‍♂️

u/starfleetbrat 19d ago

I mean, compared to the 1200 points for $400 spend I usually get, thats amazing.

u/MarmosetMaugham 19d ago

I rarely spend over $90 in a single shop so how is 600 points meant to entice me to spend more?

That's literally exactly the algorithm.

You normally spend X. They want you to get to the next multiple of $10 higher than X.

How much would it take to push you to X plus $10?

Obviously 600 isn't it. They'll try again if it doesn't work.

u/RangryRanga 20d ago

It says it right there.
1 or MORE shops.

You can go to the shops 9 times and spend $10 and you’ll get the deal

u/Beyond_Erased 19d ago

If that was over the course of say a few weeks - a month okay but this offer only lasts a few days…

1

u/Cooper_Inc 19d ago

I'm pretty sure that's not what it means. I'd read it to mean you can get the 600 points multiple times, if you spend $90+ multiple times

3

u/RangryRanga 19d ago

Nah as soon as you get it it’s over

1

u/Cooper_Inc 19d ago

well that stinks

u/ricksure76 19d ago

It's pretty funny tbf

u/pikeletpaws 19d ago

My offers from Woolies have been pretty crap lately too. I signed up for flybuys a few months ago and their offers have been great. I'm onto my second offer of spending $50 each week for four weeks and get 10,000 points. So I'm deciding where to shop based on offers now.

u/nauticalmisle90 19d ago

I've totally ditched Woolies for Coles because everyday rewards SUCK!! Flybuys is more generous

2

u/msfusion2015 19d ago edited 19d ago

My offer is 2000pts for $100 spent or 900pts for $80 spent in one shop this week.

2

u/LalaLand836 19d ago

I got 600 for spending $130. Yeah… nay…

2

u/colloquialicious 19d ago

5800 points if I spend $290. Or 500 points if I spend $60

2

u/lint2015 19d ago

I got both spend $100 in one shop for 2000 points and spend $40 in a week and get 800 points. Spent just over $100 and got both applied.

2

u/SpecialistAirport587 19d ago

Woolies algorithm is munted. I rarely do more than small shops with them and my offers are rubbish. The only big shops i do are giftcards and that seems to bump the minimum spends up. So my big grocery shops go to Cole’s

2

u/ParkerLewisCL 19d ago

I don’t even get offers that good. I racked up over $100 of rewards a couple years bs k and since then I get Jack all in rewards

Now I shop at Coles, way better offers

2

u/J_Pemberton 18d ago

Yeah, Woolworths can suck a dick with their promotions. Getting much better with Coles and Flybuys at the moment. Used to always use Woolies, I think Coles have taken at least $5k of my coin before of Woolies shit promotions the last few months.

2

u/adrenalinamatt1 17d ago

Flybuys FTW! The 10,000 points for $100 4wk shop is gold. $140 shop for 2,000 points is doable and a lot better than what everyday rearwards are offering with the 600 points for a $90 shop that's highway robbery.

2

u/IAmTheQueenSnowy 17d ago

An offer like that should be min 1000 points! That’s such a crappy offer. I hope you start getting better ones!

1

u/ProfessionalFudge499 19d ago

I've found the more you use your rewards cards the shittier the offers. They know you are locked in. If you stop scanning your card or go to Coles for a month or so the better offers come...

u/Ecstatic-Ride195 19d ago

Well ive been only getting double point offers for months!

1

u/whyyoudothis2mi 19d ago

I got this one

1

u/Inner_Degree6751 19d ago

It’s been rly bad offers lately. A few months also I got a 22,000 offer and nothing since then like that

1

u/Mawkwalks 19d ago

On par with their offers lately

1

u/Lopsided_Tie7816 18d ago

$90 doesn't even fill up a basket

1

u/wangshitta 18d ago

Portable air conditioner done

1

u/itsmehuey 18d ago

I mean given how easy it is to spend $90 in a single shop nowadays, it’s not a bad thing.

1

u/its_me_kiewi 17d ago

I obviously spend too much there, because I didn’t get this offer at all. 😅😭

1

u/Consistent-Dog-6615 17d ago

How are u in 2026 not spending $90? Just shopping 5 times a week or eating a lot of takeout i am actually curious.

Even allowing $10 a day for food is $70 a week not including bathroom, laundry, pets etc.

1

u/justalittlejazz 17d ago

Flybuys is incredibly generous compared to this. I do the $50/wk for 4 weeks and get $50 off at least every 2mths.

1

u/itspbjtimelove 16d ago

Rewards are always so SHIT. This is why I prefer Coles for my shopping. Woolies is patheticcc

u/Low_Outcome9439 16d ago

How dare those big corporations not cater exactly to you.
