Only 2 offers this week
and both mine:
Tiered BWS offer (50 pts for $30 to $49; 100 pts for $49 to $99; 200 pts for $99+)
Tiered WOW offer (150 pts for $200 to $229; 200 pts for $230 to $249; 300 pts for $250)
Totally underwhelming so looks like a low bonus point take up this week
Scurries off to see if there are more emails.... YES!!!!!
mini #1 - 500 bonus points for $30 or more at BWS (received at 7am)
me - 300 bonus points for any 2 cases of beer (received at 7.30am)
Looks like she is buying her Mum Pimms for Easter and I'm getting my F-i-L some more beer for mowing the lawn last week
Whoops, mistyped one of my offers - it was a tiered Big W offer not BWS - lucky I checked twice this morning before I went shopping. Have taken to copying and pasting into iPhone notes to make sure I am following the rules.
So Big W first - loaded up on $56 worth of Ferrero Rocher chocolates. 2 x 48 pieces for $18.94 each [Easter weekend with the family & in-laws], 1 x 30 piece for $9.97 and 1 x 16 piece at $8.24 [for my staff] - far eclipsing the WOW offer in the weekly specials email. 100 bonus points for spend > $50, 84 Amex points and 26 standard EDR points.
BWS - as stated above, my daughter bought her mum a bottle of Pimms ($45) ans I bought 2 cartons of Hahn Prem Light ($56) for Easter drinking with friends and family. 500 bonus points for daughter and 300 for me, 151 Amex points and 26 EDR points for me and 15 for my daughter.
Totals:
Me - EDR points 452 for $112 spend (24.77c/point) + 235 Amex points
Daughter - EDR points 500 for $45 spend (9c/point)
Grand total: EDR points 952 for $157 spent (16.5c/point) + 235 Amex points.
I know I could have maximised if further, but I'd rather sometimes buy things that I'll use when spending the higher amounts (unlike the Select offer last week).
Which reminds me, my spreadsheet is up and running for those that might want to use it - I understand it but others may want to play with it to suit their own situation. Email me and I can send an edited version (taking out my details). One tab for each person - as I only started really paying attention to EDR in November, it's still relatively short. Imgine
shintaro10x's for each member of the family
Also noted that EDR haven't credited a couple of the promos from 2 weeks ago as well as alerting me that I had scanned my sons EDR card by mistake on a transaction for my daughters "100 pts for any two stores, no min spend" offer...so she missed out. Now there is no chance I'll make that mistake again - at least it was a low offer, not a 500 pointer
