Coles gift card offers

[Must...Fly!]

Picked up a $100 VA gift card today. More than I had to spend but it's more useful to me than the Teens card (as I'll be buying a $300ish flight from VA soon anyway)

Interesting as they say in t&c no rewards points if not $50 card?

Not for the VA one. I got the bonus points for the $100 on anyway.

Looks like WOW EGC through Cash Rewards is the last game left in town.

Thanks DrRalph.

Shame about the 1 card limit. Wish we could go back to the good old days

Could you use coles group gift cards to pay for the Visa card?

Could you use coles group gift cards to pay for the Visa card?

Mixed reports and experiences on this. Depends on system operating in store you visit. More and more likely that the answer is no. It's more likely to be no with a self service machine especially if you try to split the transaction. You might get away with it with a prepaid card that has a value greater than the entire transaction.

Thanks, will stick with using this promotion to meet min spend requirement on credit card then.

Doesn’t work for me. The latest POS just doesn’t allow it.

This is what Amex Plat Edge is made for.

Can I use a Coles egiftcard to buy a physical Coles Group gift card (to use at Officeworks)? I don't plan on splitting the transaction. I have no problem buying Visa cards with an egiftcard but not sure if it will also work when buying Coles Group gift cards.

Nope

Zero $100 Visa cards at the few Coles I have been to so far. Plenty of $50's

Unlikely. Depends on staff and operating system. Make sure the egiftcard covers the whole amount. Split payments less likely to work.

I managed to find two x $100 today. One, though, wouldn't scan at all.

Plenty of $50's.

I've found zilch
So surprised since it's only a $4 saving and one per household....

Re the $100 "Only 1" Visa cards at Coles, I managed to find one (they had two) at Coles Gungahlin yesterday. A long way from home, but I was over on that side of town running some errands for Mrs 2905, so it wasn't much of a detour.

Others that I'd tried, but only found $50's..... Chisholm, Canberra Centre, Tuggeranong and Amaroo. If I hadn't found that one at Gungahlin then I was going to try the Jamison Centre, and failing that, Wanniassa on the way home. I was um-ing and ah-ing about Belconnen Mall and Woden Plaza, but thankfully it didn't come to that.

The things we do for a few dollars and some extra points.

I've found that in nicer areas there are none left and in Lower socio economic areas they're are a decent amount left

Maybe it's coincidence
