Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

2,000 bonus points for $110 spend between Wednesday and Friday.

Looks like some staff from Woolworths have moved across to Flybuys. How am I going to achieve $110 when I struggle to achieve $60 each week? It would appear they have increased the spend target as I have purchased some Jetstar and Virgin gift vouchers the past week,

From previous observations, gift card spend will increase your targets for general grocery spend. It takes a month or so for targets to reset to their old levels, provided you don't take up the higher target offers.
 
Im going to try this because at some point I was getting stupid offers like $300 spends for bonus points.

I noticed since we came back from holidays, its crept up from $60 spend to $150 spend in less than 3 weeks of being home.

I won't make the targetted spend but I'll continue to buy gift cards as I book a lot of flights and would like to save the credit card fee.

Silly model as gift card spend is excluded from targetted offers.
 
This never occured for me and I have purchased thousands of gift cards.

Has happened to our accounts every time (bak in the good old days..).

When purchased 5 figures of pre-paid MCs the spend amount only increased to 3 digits. No use of that card for ten months subsequently.

I call up and email etc etc pointing that out.

If enough people do then perhaps they might update their system?

Not going to happen. I'll spend a couple of dollars here and there like I did last week.
