Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

[oz_mark]

$4 for 1000 bonus points, it would be rude not to..........5 days left how many can I find.....haha

I've had a similar promotion in the past - 2 days into the promotion, there was an email saying that from day 3 it was restricted to 10 times.

Except they are more likely to say no and pull the offer for everyone. At the moment you have enough to go on in the offer T&Cs to argue the case if they don't credit the points... until they read your email and realise they have stuffed up.

Exactly, which is why I was being cryptic, 18 bought so far, another 24 arriving tomorrow, was busy today so only got to check one shop which I stripped.

At least the wife can’t complain about not having a razor for a long time

Went for the females one and the male one, came in at an average of $4.29, the online one came in at an average of $4.23 delivered by using codes.

 

[FromTheRail]

Which one did you find for under 4? The best I could find was $4.75... not complaining though

School boy error, search for the brand, sort by price, lowest first, easy way to find the best deal

 

[ffhound]

Perhaps they intended to allow Flybuyers to claim more than one bonus but the people who work out the sale prices didn't talk to the Flybuys department?

But have you been credited with any points yet?

Hmmm, I got the offer as well and have some time available tomorrow to check out various Coles stores in MEL CBD. Wonder if they’d get confiscated at QF security??

I’m thinking of the angle of donating them to a woman’s shelter and getting the tax deduction...

 

[FromTheRail]

But have you been credited with any points yet?

I’d be surprised if they don’t, just going by their stated T&C’s

 

[AisleSeat]

Fuel offers:

20 points/litre or 10c off/litre on one card
16 points/litre on the other card

 

[burmans]

On the other hand if they say yes and then you go out and buy a lot of stuff they can hardly say no to crediting the points. You relied on their statement.

The T&C's are the T&C's, far better to rely on them!

Clever thinking, would that work?

 

[QF WP]

Get a receipt from the shelter for the receipt of said items...a Charity is an even stronger option.

Has worked for others in the past here on AFF. One shouldn’t forget the famous Pudding Guy (Google it).

Yes.

T&C have been updated, and before I got a chance to go on the hunt for the elusive Venus... the dream is over

Flybuys do have an account on this forum!

Hi

I'll let the cat out of the bag as I have the same offer.

It's an offer of 1000 points for ANY (their emphasis) Gillette blade or razer excluding disposables.

I purchased 3 razors last night to test whether I get 1000 points for each. I also emailed Flybuys to confirm that you can get multiple bonuses and to clarify which products are eligible.

I see this offer as a good way to cut the cost of my shopping. Taking advantage of the offer without checking with Flybuys could result in a close shave. it may not be the best offer but at the moment it's the best a man can get.

cheers Peter

2pm what time zone though?

Maybe I shouldn’t have posted here at all

 

[woodborer]

Flybuys do have an account on this forum!

I'm sure they would have worked it out anyway (daily reporting, people calling the call centre to clarify, etc.)

 

[QF WP]

I had a 3.5 hour meeting this morning so couldn’t do anything until this afternoon. Probably will look at it still, as $40 for 10K points is still fair value when converted to VAFF points.

Whether @ffhound alerted them or not we will never know. I tend to think they would have had other contacting them as well as the FlyBuys Authenticated Rep here on AFF, so as usual, discussion is at your own discretion.

Onto the next offer...and congratulations to @FromTheRail on their foresight to maximize their benefits from this offer.

At least you didnt end up with 12,000 chocolate pudding cups

Or 12000 razers for which one could only get credited 10k points. Sometimes it is better to get clarification on the offer first.

To those of you who had contemplated buying hundreds of these items, you have had a close shave!
