EDR Targeted Bonus Point Promotions

[rainbowgirl]

One of our family members got the choose your offer option. It was $10 off or 500 points for spending $80. I chose the $10 off option and now I have to figure out whether to take up the offer. We very rarely take up $80 offers but this one might just tempt us. There are currently three active offers on this account. The first is the $5 off for spending $30. The second one is 20% off meat with no minimum spend. The third is the choose your offer. Provided the flat discounts kick in first and then the meat discount, I could get $80 worth of groceries, including a roast lamb and some chops for under $60.

If I understand the system correctly, the set discounts would take the transaction down to $65 and then 20% would come off the remaining value of the meat products in the transaction. If the meat discount comes off first then I won't get the $10 off, only the $5 off, but the meat discount would be higher taken off the $80 value than taken off the $65 value. It still wouldn't add up to as high a discount however. I wonder whether any of the staff in EDR customer service will know exactly how the discounts will work when stacked together. They are all triggered on swiping the EDR card, there are no coupons involved so the trigger will be instant for all the discounts.

It's really tempting to take this offer up. I very rarely take up the $80 target offers but with so many offers to stack it might just be worth it.

Received another 1000 points for $200.

$400 for 2 people in 2 weeks. I don't think so.

Me - $20 off $220 spend online

Considering heading up and taking up the $200/1000 offer as today is the last day. If I don't, will be interesting to see what next weeks offer is (if indeed there is one coming).

Me - $20 off $220 spend online

I got that offer as well - first for ages. 'Tell 'em they're dreamin'. Never spent anywhere near $200 at Woollies - PB (personal best) would be around $120.

 

[get me outta here]

I always activate my offers (on both stores), but 99% of the time I don't reach the cut off.

Does it make any difference if I activate them or not on possibly receiving offers that are a much lower spend requirement?

Dad got a 500 point bonus offer for $250 spend @ WW... :shock: Why would i chase that offer when they gave him an offer for 2000 points for spend of $50 online.

Well after the disappearance of bonus points offers, imagine my surprise to get a $20 discount voucher for $200 spend on my $40 Opal top up receipt. Used that yesterday, gotta love 15% discount on the shopping, $20 plus 5% wish cards. Check out operator tells me about the $10 discount voucher that would be on the docket, don't throw it out. Imagine both of our surprise when there was another $20 discount voucher as well as the $10 voucher. Read the details of the $20 voucher and it said something about updating your email address in my EDR account. Umm perhaps not, I think I like $20 discounts much better than bonus point offers.

Things didn't quite work out the way I wanted it to at Woolworths/EDR today, however I'm guessing if I dispute the transaction I might be able to get the missing discount funds sent as a gift card like other members have received. It's a gamble but I think it's worth the effort. I'll let you know the full story once the matter is resolved.

Eeek, I was in PER and dropped into WOW to get chocolates - only to remember when I was at the check-out that I had left Mrs QF WP's card back in BNE. Oh well. I picked up 20 points on my card + 75 on the Amex. Lesson learnt.

 

[JohnK]

Brother - 250 bonus points for $50 spend
Dad - 1000 bonus points or $30 discount on $275 spend

Chose the $30 discount but that's a ridiculous target that won't be met.

I shopped yesterday and spent $132. I immediately got $15 off the bill once I presented my ERC, I had no idea I would receive this.. I also had an offer for spend $120 get 500 points, but now am wondering about the 500 points. But an added bonus is a $10 off on the bottom go the docket.

So I am happy either way.

Same here.

Had an offer of $120/500 or $160/750 and ended up spending $170 odd. After I paid the amount the check out girl checked the docket and explained to me I qualified for a "$10 off my next shop" offer.

Always nice to receive something when you are not expecting it.

 

[QF WP]

Did a shop yesterday as the cupboard was bare. Used Mrs QF WP's card and the $10 off (Week 2) was shown as the last transaction.

 

[jlien]

Did my shop on the weekend, had to spend $50 to get $10 off.

Spent the required $50, but didn't receive any discount :S Might have to call them up.

The same thing happened to me(but with a different target) and I have a couple of theories as to why it happened. I've sent them an email using the "contact us" form and hope to get a response in a few days.

They will send you out a $10 gift card




No offers this week for my family so far

I decided to not bother with the email form, so just called them instead.
Firstly they verified that I enrolled into the offer, selecting the $10 voucher.
Then they asked for details of my shop, asking if I purchased any tobacco or gift cards.
Then they asked more specific detail from my docket, namely the store id, transaction id, time of transaction, total amount. Luckily I had the docket with me.
They then told me that they'll mail me a $10 gift card

Worked out in the end, but would have preferred that they just get it right in the first place.

They will send you out a $10 gift card

The offer I enrolled in was for a discount, rather than a giftcard, but yes that ended up to be the final outcome.

 

[QF WP]

Glad that my shop yesterday had it automatically processed against Mrs QF WP's card. Also glad that I checked my original EDR email for the same offer - $15 off shops more than $125 in value, but I didn't take it up.

Yet another $20 off for $200 spend docket voucher, with the advice "To keep earning rewards update your email at EDR.com.au". 3 vouchers in a row, well happy, they can keep their points.
