EDR Targeted Bonus Point Promotions

Not open for further replies.
Three offers this week - 300 points for $50 spend at Big W, 100 points for $10 on cleaning products at Woolworths and 500 points for $125 spend at BWS. While the BWS spend is fairly high, I should be able to use all three.

As per posts earlier, don't forget BWS have 30% off 6 bottles of wine at the moment. Can get some very nice wines cheaper than Dan Murphys!
 
My three week offer:
50% off red rock deli chips
Spend $150 for $15 off
Spend $100 for 20c fuel voucher

Useless!
 
Received the most bonus offers in a single week ever.

150 bonus points on a $5 spend at WW bakery.
500 bonus points on a $50 spend at Big W.
500 bonus points on a $120 spend or 750 bonus points on a $160 spend at WW.
$5 off on a $50 spend at WW (this was on a Christmas letter sent to me a couple of weeks ago).
 
I braved the shops today to use one of our $50/500point offers. I'd used the price scanner to double check each item and calculated my spend $51.48. Got to the checkout, total was $48.48. Seems I picked up two $3 items without realising it was buy one and get one free :(
I was in a checkout without chocolate or anything else to add to my shopping and there were more than 10 people in the queue behind me, so I guess I need to visit a big W and spend $2!

Had a similar thing happen to me last week. Had to go back and spend $2.21 on a tube of superglue.

I'm always worried about that something like this would happen to me at Big W, so I've been known to carry around extra $1 items like birthday cards and various stationery items with me and then leave them at the checkout once I've reached my target spend. I usually carry extra items with me at the supermarket register as well when I'm aiming for specific targets. I got caught today at Coles when the checkout operator put through $3 of meat as free because it wouldn't scan at the correct price. I ended up having to grab a couple of extra packets of the $1 cheezels to get to my target total.

As I was reading your post the emails arrived for my father and I with the same offer.

Trying to convince mum to shop on Wednesday 11 December and Tuesday 17 December so save $30 but I am having trouble convincing her away from her usual Friday shopping.

And a day or so later mum and my brother also received the 3 offers in the one email.

I will try to get one account to achieve the offer and usually it is the account with the lowest QFF points.
 
My account ended up getting the 3 offers in one email eventually. I will consider taking up offer one and use a different brand of chips for the christmas parties. The last offer of the 20 cent voucher is close enough to Christmas where I'll be spending a lot on fresh food in preparation for hosting Christmas feasts so I will probably manage to spend $100 in one transaction. I don't mind putting the occasional big spend on my card. I just don't like putting the large spends on the other accounts. If I can get someone to go shopping with me and split the $15 bonus I'll take up the offer in the second week of the promotion.
 
Me - 500 bonus points for $50 spend at Woolworths

Strange offer as that account is the one used the most

I've found that very occasionally you do get generous offers for accounts that are used all the time. The best one I ever got for Woolworths was 500 bonus points for only spending $30.
 
This thread has been very quiet recently.

Mum, dad and brother received a wine offer of mixed dozen for $99 from Dan Murphys.
 
Finally, a targeted offer....for my wife...a $99 dozen wine. Same offer as JohnK.

Sorry, not what I was looking for :o...show me the bonus points :D
 
500pts for $30 spend @ BWS
& 500pts for $50 spend at Big W

You are doing something wrong. Even though the offers have dried up we are still getting them and I pick and choose which offers are doable.

In my opinion I think your bulk online shopping hurts your chances of getting an offer. We have been using mums, dads and my brothers card for the past 5-6 weeks and they have sent an offer to my card for 500 bonus for $50 spend.

Indeed, that has been my thought for a while now - except that we started alternating EDR accounts for crediting when QF changed to multi time access to Family Points transfers. It has only triggered one offer (above). Time to throw some of my kids EDR accounts at some shopping.

Still, the general 15c and 20c offers have been useful to access - but ran out of them this morning after filling up.
