I didn't do too well this year but due to illness I missed out on a couple of thousand bonus points here and there. That probably made the difference. I'm usually in the top 2% or higher but this year I slipped to 7%. I couldn't even get higher in my own suburb.
 
Sigh, I wish this program was around when we had seven kids at home and spending $600 a fortnight at Coles. :)
 
when we had seven kids at home
:eek: There are not enough potential decimal places in a flybuys balance to make that workable for me I am afraid

They have all left home, apart from the remaining perpetual teenager <—————-.

The kids thought it a good idea when the last one left to buy us an untrainable beagle, which we nevertheless love to death.

Checked the others:
Mrs andye 1%
Me 2%
Mstr andye1 4%

As Blinky says, fecundity helps the collection (though not the availability of award seats)
 
There's obviously some serious spenders here.

My wife's account which was active only 3 months was in top 24% and my account which I pretty much stopped using after crediting to wife's account was in top 6%.
 
The percentiles weren't a big deal for me given our two-person household most of the year. However, I really got caught out on the 'top 4' favorites. I'd forgotten Coles had a massive sale on Cadbury choco bars mid-year, which were all approaching use by date and a bargain at $0.50 cents a pop. But somehow I'd neglected to share any with my wife, scoffing them all myself over a period of months. Oh dear.
 
2018 was:
  • Australia - 1%
  • NSW - 1%
  • Lane Cove - 2%
Total points earned: 120,371

Compared to 2017 all were 1%. What have I done wrong? I earned 109,504 last year.
