QFF points under $30 on Woolworths Everyday Rewards

[yohy?!]

Just noticed that I have earnt points on my QFF account from my last 3 Woolworths transactions all under $30.

I earned 6, 14 and 14 points in single transactions which seems to fly in the face of the 'spend $30 in one transaction' that is presently marketed.

A ploy to sucker in the newbies? (Like me ) Or a genuine mistake??

 

[Ms Lucy]

Interesting! I've only ever received the expected points for the amounts over the $30, including a posting of 1 point after a $31 spend.

 

[yohy?!]

Mine were all BWS (!) perhaps that's where the difference lies?

I noticed Self Serve always asks for the EDR card even if purchase was under $30 .....

I always swipe it, but don't have login details to check if I got any lately. 2009 I did not get any points for anything under $30, I know that for sure.

I never bother scanning it for that reason - didn't seem to be any benefit.

Benefit them marketing research? :!::?: I still scan it, as sometimes there are promotions? When they first had it, you could scan it to be in the draw to win a WOW card etc. Haven't seen any for ages though. I just scan to shut the machine up from "Please scan your every day rewards card" .... I do it at the Please and it stops heheheheh

I never bothered handing the card over for purchases of less than $30 but I guess now I will justin case!

My last transaction has not posted yet, but purchases made in early Jan were still only “over $30”. Luckily last transaction was at BWS so will be able to confirm soon hopefully.

Haven't seen that yet, I bought something under $30 and they asked for my card and I said "why bother?"

Used it in BWS this week, why oh why is it no good in Dan Murphys which is also owned by Woolworths? I think they had a week of it?
Also DSE for one week only. What's going on?

Dan Murphys promotion was only on wine purchases from the 30/11/09 to 24/12/09.
DSE and Tandy are on going and you earn 1 point per dollar for every dollar after $50.

I use mine every time, 8 out of 10 under $30 spends have been coming in. Strange, but seems to work on my card.
Also, some how l also got 200 points added from a Woolies transaction when l know for a fact l did not spend that sort of money on that particular transaction on that day, it was a under $30 total purchase in SYD. But then again, whats 200 points really going to get you? A lolly pop??? LOL.

You might have unwittingly participated in a promotion for something.

AFAIK that's how it's supposed to work. Min $30 spend to earn QFF points (well, $31 actually).

But I presume EDR points are earned for all spends, so I offer my card for swiping (I do lots of 'little' shops rather than a few 'big' ones) every time, regardless whether its over $30 or not.

I have a bunch of txns on my QFF account for miles ranging from 1 to ~15.

 

[Oneworldplus2]

I get the points for small spends, just no fuel saver docket for a under $30 spend. Doesn't bother me as l don't own a car. (Never owned one actually, and l have a HR Licence, lol)

 

[auriga]

I almost never spend over $30, so did not bother to get the card.

 

[significance]

Are you sure you spent under $30? If you spend $36, you should get 6 pts, if you spend $44, you should get 14 pts, and so on.

 

[zzyss]

I've done a few <$30 transactions lately, and tried logging in to check, but the EDR Website is showing an error due to "experiencing high volume of customers." On a Sunday afternoon?

 

[Warks]

On DSE - yes I spent some $$ there yesterday and they asked for my EDR card. Every dollar over $50 as stated above. Going to spend another $600 there today on a spare laptop so a few more points. It's all rather trivial really but I guess it adds up eventually.

We'd pull 1000 points a month through Woolworths though so in 16 months we've got one SYD-MEL return. Whoa!

 

[serfty]

Purchased a new laptop, some bits and bobs and a TV in the same transaction at DSE just before Christmas; With CC spend and EDR, I gleaned ~2,600 points in total ...

 

[lovetravellingoz]

Purchased a new laptop, ..

I just bought my daughter a new laptop for Uni.

With DSE awarding FF points I had a look there, but I could get a better specced (ie Cor2Duo, rather than Core Duo, 4GB RAM, rather than 2,1MB more cache, etc) Toshiba for a much cheaper price at MLN.

So I went sans-points
