Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

Are the days of targeted 10k bonus offers for 4x $$ spend over? Now seem to be getting 5x FB points offers for in store or online spends, valid for a few days.
I finished two $10k x 4wk on two accounts in week ending 18 Feb, so it'd be too soon to be suggesting that those days are over.

There has been a big increase in the x points per product type offers though, which are not particularly inducive to go out of my way to obtain.
 
Read our AFF credit card guides and start earning more points now.

I have had 2 lots of $50 and $60 for 4 weeks for 10,000 recently so I'm happy. Going overseas for a few weeks so hopefully so good bonuses when I get back

Seems to be the EDR way as well, I won’t be lured into those offers unless it really suits us. Fortunately in Adelaide we have options such as Foodland and Drakes ; happy to shop with them in any case.
 
No spend/ earn offers but currently have nearly a dozen product offers that i estimate to net 2800 points spending <$50.

Will do a targeted shop then finish up at Woolworths this week

As we know CE (Coles Express) got sold off, and we all thought Viva was going to be the take over, well, nope, not in South Aust, where Caltes has taken over.
Now, no more FB at a lot of the outlets near me, they have gone Caltex.
So, no more coffees, or for those who used to have a CE near them, its goodbye, CE.
Yes, their fuels were more expensive, but they were a good way of keeping VFF account alive, by buying a bit of fuel from them occasionally, or even just chocolate bars, or ice cream, or non smoking items.
Sad face.
Wonder whats going to happen now, will I no longer see FB fuel or food item offers, with less FB fuels, or none soon, in South Aust anyway.
Most likely, all over Aust, every CE outlet will change to Caltex, so have to keep an eye out colleagues.
Maybe already happened in your suburb!
Coles Express interstate will be rebranding as Reddy Express (non 24-hr/small sites) or OTR (24 hour sites). Both will retain the Coles '4c Shopper dockets' and Flybuys system.

The remaining Coles Express sites retained by Viva in SA will likely be going OTR, with regional SA possibly taking up the 'Reddy Express' name as 'smaller' locations.

I thought so too .. seemingly nothing all year for me, just rubbish 5x offers. But just received a spend $90 for 4 weeks for 10K a few days ago.
 
$70 for four weeks for 10,000 - will be away for two of those weeks so will ignore and hope for something smaller when I return
 
Join Coles Plus and remain a member for 2 months = 10,000pts

First month free then $19/mth. Guessing the 3rd month might end up being charged before the pts credit so either $19 or $38.

Seems worth considering.
