Nice, any catch to those coles MC prepaid cards? Can I use them to pay govt bills such as council rates and ATO?

 

[bernardblack]

I have certainly used them previously to pay the Canberra merchant.

No restrictions. They even have a PIN.

$250 + $7 - 10% = $25.70 off?
now what's the % cut to ATO $100 payment via CC?

 

[albyd]

Looks like it’s 0.15% for debit MC so on $250 that would be 37c. No brainer. Guess will be easier said than done finding stock on Wednesday. Time will tell.

The limit doesn't seem to be attached to an FB account. Wish I wasn't at work or I'd go on a road trip (or ColesCrawl)

I know where I will be at 6:55am tomorrow morning. $1250 of mastercards for $1156.50 ... $100 more or less risk free and tax free for an hour of effort.

First Coles.... out of stock.
Second BINGO!
Here we come 7 am pickup

What's the most efficient way to purchase these? Self check-out or manned? One or more per transaction?

If you use self checkout it's going to need assistance to finalise the transaction. This can be problematic. But if you intend to use a discounted Coles gift card to pay for your transaction I'd take this route.

If you're just going to use a regular card to pay I'd use a staffed checkout. Remember the limit is 5. I'll have a copy of the catalogue with me just in case the staff members becomes difficult.

Lots of stock of the $250 cards at the store near my work. Will be loading up.

Someone remind me, are these able to be used to buy the more of the same? IE buy one then use it to buy another? Assuming no.

I think it could work (the register will see the paying GC as a debit card) but you can't split the bill for giftcards at Coles so you would have to put through individually

 

[bernardblack]

Given that it's a discount rather than bonus Flybuys, it's not obvious to me that Inceptioning is worth the effort here. You'll end up with a stack of gift cards with small remainder balances. Unless I'm missing the intent?

 

[NoName]

Works out the same from a $$ point of view, I just prefer not to have $1,250 of gift cards sitting around waiting to be spent currently.

EDIT: Well $2,500 after I’m through with Mrs NoName’s account as well.

 

[kyle]

Went there at 7am. Every denomination in stock for the Mastercard, but the persons in front are like those milk powder vultures. Took the whole stack of $250. I only got the $100.

Those vultures managed to put all of them through without any 5 per person limit.

 

[andye]

4 stores done in 40 minutes. Well-stocked except one. 17x$250 3x$100. Didn't push for >5 cards anywhere
