EDR Targeted Bonus Point Promotions

Status
Not open for further replies.
I received an offer for 250 points for a $50 spend. FWIW last week I was offered 250 points for a $30 spend. I think they are testing me out.



I don't do jet lag.
 
So do you think that Everyday Rewards is not giving away enough points?

Personally I do not think people should receive offers within their comfort zone. The offer you received sounds reasonable if you want some extra points.

Grocery shopping is a little different when you're only shopping for 1 person instead of 3 or 4. I get that you're saying the people who spend more (shopping for a family) should be rewarded. Of course. But the targets to entice someone like me to spend have to be achievable or I'll just go elsewhere and get better food for less.
 
The offers keep rolling in, various accounts for the family members that I assist in looking after :)

1. Woolies - Spend $30 get $10 credit, hopefully this works at the checkout
2. Woolies/BWS/Big W - Spend anything and get 100 points for your birthday (First time I have seen this one)
3. Woolies $80-500points OR $120-750 points
4. Woolies $120-500points OR $160-750 points
5. Woolies $120-500points OR $160-750 points
6. Woolies $120-500points OR $160-750 points

Will get family member 1, 2 and 3 to use their offers

I received offer 3. Unlikely to happen. I have only just managed it once in the past. They've also been trying to entice me into Big W and using WW online, but the spend levels have been way too high!

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated
 
Hey I wonder why, I don't get some of these promos? Been a member for
at least 5 years. Spend quite a lot at our local Woolies.

Check your preferences and subscriptions in your Everyday Rewards account to make sure they are correct for your interests.

If there is another adult in the household, sign them up to Everyday Rewards and start collecting points on the new account. This could trigger offers on the new account and if you don't use the existing account for a few weeks you may trigger offers on that account as well trying to get you to shop at WW again.

Loyalty programs reward disloyalty most of the time, not loyalty. Good luck.

Thank you soo much for your valuable advice, I'll certainly give it a go. Hey we have
a 18 year old that eats a kilo of bacon for breakfast, you know what I mean thanks again
 
Agreed. The whole reason they send you offers is not for your benefit.
I understand they want me to spend, but the incentive has to be worth it. If it's too high, the offer loses its value to them and to me.

Agree with rainbowgirl - ensure sure your account it open for offers.

Hi Amaroo. Thanks for reminding me, I'm going to follow Rainbowgirls advice,
heading down to Woolies today to collect another EDR card, register it in my
hubby's name, shuffle cards around in my purse, then I'll be set. I let all
know if that triggers some promos. Many thanks

Good luck. I hope it all works out. Just remember to make sure you use the correct card when the offers come out. You can share fuel vouchers between cards but you can't share offers. EDR print the names on each member on the big cards now so it is easier to figure out which card is which.

The scanners in store read from a screen, so saving a photo of each card on an iPad or phone can make things easier.
 
EDR are experimenting with the Monday to Thursday offers again this week.

I got a double points offer and another family member got a 250 points for $30 offer. We'll probably take up the $30 offer on Wednesday provided there are enough specials in the next catalogue to make a $30 spend worthwhile. I wasn't expecting these types of offers again even though I knew about them from last weeks offer. I picked up some of the half price rump steak and some deli meat today at WW without a targeted offer. It's going to get trickier to predict the right time to make purchases at WW.

For a rational person maybe but a number of studies have shown that a considerable %ge of people misvalue things like promotions!
