What did you guys think?
You can apply a code and get $10 off bringing it down to $100, 5000 woolworth points is ~ $25 dollars so $75 for 12 bottles and a bottle of Moet

edit: i have a 240/100 offer on my WBC amex - any decent deals on there? Don't see any of the awesome penfolds bin 389 twin packs anymore :S
 
For those with ANZ CC, I got an SMS from them last week:

Get $20 off when you spend $80 or more at First Choice Liquor Online on eligible purchases with your ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum card. Simply use promo code 5555AsUpks at the online checkout by 10/03/17. Find out more at c.ecomm.anz.com/fcifeb/5555AsUpks. T & C's apply

I'm stuffed if I can find the page, because that link lands on a page (www.anz.com.au/personal) that has no information about the wine offer. So I sign in, thinking it will re-direct me after sign-in, but no. FAIL

Noticed that Dan's at Port Macquarie has recently expanded their premium scotch offerings. Received an email today with

[h=2]Ordachory by Glenlivet[/h] [TABLE="class: yiv0479760229max-width, width: 280, align: left"] [TR] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] The Glenlivet Ordachory Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
Only 287 bottles of Ordachory were produced from a single cask that has matured the whisky for 17 years. Cask-strength and non-chill filtered, there are strong aromas of apricot jam, spicy ginger, raisins and rich, dark, luxurious chocolate. The palate displays a delicious sweet and fruity mix of orange marmalade, red apples, treacle toffee and moist gingerbread. Please note, the order will be dispatched from 17.03.2017

Good outcome but which bargains did you picked up that were worth going through all that hassle? I looked on their website and couldn't find anything exciting.

If you get your spend right (i.e. in blocks of $80 to get the full 25% off I think the following are good buying:

Yalumba The Signature $34.42 in a 6 pack
Clonakilla SV 2015 $67.5
Clonakilla O'Riada 2015 $27
Hoddles Creek 1ER Chard 2015 $37.5
Cape Mentelle Shiraz 2014 $24
Tim Adams Aberfeldy Shiraz 2012 $36
Diana Madeline 2014 $84 in a 6 pack
Pierro 2015 Chardonnay $56


With free delivery for 12 bottles you need a fair few AMEX to make it worth it though.

Cullen Diana Madeline 2014 @ 104.90 less 25% = $83.92
Dan's 109.30, after wish card 5% and cashrewards 7% wine = $96.20

Not a super bargain, but cheaper nevertheless. I know you can get wishcards cheaper from amex deals, but any deals where I can buy visa1 cards from woolies or coles gets converted to cash

(My total was 1282 over 16 cards so nearly got the perfect 25%)

Boccaccio don't have super sharp pricing. What they do have is wine, like Italian stuff, that other people might not stock at all. If you can get 20-25% off that, then you're getting a pretty decent price, as a lot of the stuff is never discounted.
 
no statement credits for Boccaccio cellar came through from last weeks purchase on Tuesday :-(

Sorry but surely you didn't expect to receive them given [post=1592889]my earlier comment[/post]? :)

Good to hear and yes, the Boccaccio boys can be quite accommodating - I've previously swapped unwanted gifts/bottles for wines I've more fancied :)

However, I sincerely hope that for security reasons, if you emailed (as opposed to faxed) your cards and identification, that you encrypted your message and/or redacted some digits/information, and provided the key or missing data over the phone.

If not, I personally would consider cancelling and changing card numbers to avoid the risk of fraud.

Seems they were definitely very accommodating to manually process 16 cards :)


Anyone used their AMEX cards at Boccaccio already?

Looking for ideas what to buy, so far can't see any special bargains, even at 25% off.

I'm guessing that you haven't been in-store to check? :)

Here's a sample:

Duval-Leroy 2-for-$110
Canard-Duchene 2-for-$100
Yabby Lake Chardonnay 2015 2-for-$60
Dog Point Chardonnay 2012 2-for-$50
Dog Point Sauvignon Blanc 2016 2-for-$40
Giant Steps Yarra Valley Pinot Noir or Chardonnay 2015 2-for-$40
Wickhams Road Yarra Valley Chardonnay 2-for-$30
Hoddles Creek Sauvignon Blanc 2016 $10

Though as alluded to [post=1592996]previously[/post], there can be good (if not better) non-wine specials, such as Beaufort cheese for $55.99/kg and Nino’s sausages $11/kg :)

If you get your spend right (i.e. in blocks of $80 to get the full 25% off I think the following are good buying:

Yalumba The Signature $34.42 in a 6 pack
Clonakilla SV 2015 $67.5

Pierro 2015 Chardonnay $56

+1 Nice selection :)

I'm not sure how much wine Boccaccio expects to sell with this unusual arrangement?
surely they dont expect the rest of Australia amex offers to fly in to make instore purchases... lol

ste667 is :)

They aren't always the cheapest but they're generally one of the cheapest, and true, they have a good range of imports from places like France/Italy/Spain at reasonably competitive prices, such as [post=1493631]Serge Mathieu Brut Tradition[/post] for $49.99.

I know CAMWHEELER and trust his reviews. He's a hard marker.

+1

This very tempting at $198 after the discounts https://cellardoor.co/Wines/Wine-Ty...torian-Shiraz-Mixed-Selection/#/2_903.action#

Good way of landing a couple of the cheap St Peters without having to buy 6.

Plus you're getting the "14 Chalambar which we know is excellent.

Yes that was probably the best deal there :)
