Cash back on shopping.

Shanye2233 · Oct 27, 2013

Im spending alot of money and various things and trying to work out how this cash back scheme works. What I'm looking for or hoping for is 5% cashback on my daily purchases at woolworths coles major department stores etc.

anyone know anything ?

Yes. There are some options. Not so much cash back but rather discounts. UK is a much better place for these types of deals!

Re: Goodbye cash back.

For Woolworths you become an RAC member and buy Wish Gift cards 5% off.
For Coles I use National Seniors but they can be slow. It is a club so anyone can join and I read bits of their magazine. I think Myer is there but I never bother shopping there.
For alcohol you start in starthere,port your way into DanMurphys then pay with Woolies Wish cards making sure that your second purchase is bigger than the first seeing they offer a better deal usually within 3 days. The free delivery works.

Re: Goodbye cash back.

After I discovered how easy it was to get Myer to price match I've suddenly started shopping there again

Very handy!!

The entertainment book sells both Woolworths group and Coles cards for 5% discount also

Yep entertainment book sell gift cards at 5% off (plus a small delivery fee) for coles, woolworths wish cards as well as Dan Murphys and a few others. Union shopper also do them as do the auto clubs RACQ etc if you are a member.

But the Entertainment Book limits Coles and Woolies gift cards to a maximum of $4000 pa so need to look elsewhere as well

The 4K per year restriction only applies to Coles giftcards not the WOW ones.

Ambassador Card have woollies, Coles and a bunch of others, with a limit 1k per card type per order and 5k a month. Membership is 199pa, however a bunch of professional societies and unions give you free membership (and those are tax deductible if you're in the relevant industry).

Thanks for everyones feedback . But il be more specific . I spend a weekly amount of $10k on xs gift cards and looking for something in return. Every one costs me $5.95 to generate so im looking to even the scales. I read on FT numberous cash back schemes and some in the U.K . I was wondering if there anything locally. Or can i join one of those international sites and receive money back for my high spendure (if theres such a word).

Very impressive Shanye2233, to be able to spend $10,000 a week on XS gift cards, on earnings of $600 per week.

Only following orders .

Expenditure might be the word you're looking for.
And likewise can't resist asking - what do you do with them all?

Shanye2233 · Oct 28, 2013

It should be obivous albeit not for much longer. It will be a good story to tell one day

It should be obvious. Someone has worked out a way to convert XS cards back to cash. But true to their form, they seek information, yet never return the favour or say thanks.

Possibly paying their credit card bill via EFTPOS (I think there is an old thread about doing it at Aus Post). Spend say $9500 on $10k of XS gift cards and use them to pay off the CC bill, effectively giving you $500 for free plus any points from the CC.

Sorry did i have to spell it out for you. If i can work it out how hard can it be. And if i was getting $500 for free i certainly wouldnt be cleaning rubbish of the floor for $17 per hour .

I thought I understood this thread initially but now I'm not quite sure. Would someone please explain XS cards or give me a link with information.

Sorry to show my ignorance here. I'm always looking for ways of using money to save money.

Cash back on shopping.
