It's good to see that flybuys are still sending out targeted offers to members who either didn't receive the 4 week offer or decided not to take it up. This gives a fairer go to more members. Woolworths don't have overlapping types of promotions very often. WW are using this technique at the moment, however, and this is a good sign.
 
I wonder how "targeting" works. Just today at 19/10/2016 10:40:57 (on my receipt) bought a case of beer and wine at 1stChoice Liquor. At 2:43pm I received an email from Flybuy ...... drum roll ....... Spend $30 between 19th - 23th at 1stChoice Liquor for 1500 bonus points. Crazy.
 
It's been a while I've shopped at Coles and have just been leaving it up to my sister (supplementary card, 1400kms away) to swipe her card.
Just checked my offers sections tonight and have received
- Triple points on largest shop
- Spend $50 on selected Coles Mastercard, EFTPOS Best Restaurant, and Red Balloon gift cards for 2,000 points
- Spend $20 at Liquorland for 1,000 points (for the second week in a row)

So tomorrow, I'm going to Coles to buy myself a $50 Mastercard then going to Liquorland to spend $20, for 3,000 points :D

Maybe just my bad luck in the timing of the offer.:(

Remember that part of that 2000 bonus points for the Mastercard will be lost in the activation fee for the card.

I'm not sure why some members got the gift card deal as a targeted offer. The same deal is listed as a general offer in the current catalogue.
 
Docket Deal received today was a 3x points, but the interesting thing is that the new self checkout POS revealed one was coming:

I can't find a reference to the activation fee. Could you please tell me how much this is?

I noticed that a notification for docket deals sometimes appears on the self checkout screen. Flybuys were doing some promotions recently attempting to get new members but they weren't giving docket deals to existing members at the time. At one stage I had a docket deal notification on a self checkout machine which disappeared as soon as I scanned my flybuys card.
 
Now that Velocity have teamed up with Flybuys, i am taking more notice of the various deals. I have a docket deal that states I will get 750 FB points if I spend $120. I also have a paper coupon (sent with my FB statement) saying that I will get 1000 (+ a bonus 2000) FB pts if I spend $120...are these 2 stackable? i.e. can I use them them both on the ONE >$120 Coles purchase to get 3750 FB pts??

Most offers are stackable. I haven't heard of the that particular type of paper coupon before. Are all your weekly coupons like that or just Week 1?

20161020_184150.jpgI got 4 of these coupons including this one for week 1. Good to hear they are stackable! :)
 
Yes, it sounds like scanning the first coupon will count towards the 2000 points (and 4 coupons) part of the promotion
