These $100 MC are getting rare now, Today went to 4 coles no stock ( Liverpool, wattle grove, chipping norton, riverwood ).

Coles's turn to run a ill-thought out promo around $100 giftcards?
 
Visited Coles at Bondi junction today no stock except for a small amount of $50. Strange given it was so well stocked last MC promo.
 
Every customer is trying to empty the shelves. I don't think there would be enough regardless how much stock they bring in


Come to Townsville my local has heaps of stock atm hahah.
 
Some stores restocked during the Mothers Day promo
Today is the first day I haven't bought any
 
I'm not trying to empty the shelves, because I wasn't "targeted". I know plenty of others who missed out too.

Mrs andye has just received an email for the offer-there may be a second round of targetting
 
They've worked ... Very slowly $100 at a time. Might not be a problem if they continue to remain scarce :)
 
I asked at Coles today if they could order some more. They said they do not get ordered, the cards just get sent to the stores.
 
My card blocked, mrs card blocked. I guest bought too much today :)

Amex fraud team called us, in order to verify. All good. Cards working again.
 
I didn't get any offers.../cry
something is up with my flybuys account, haven't received ANY emails at all ever from them that I can remember, not spam ...nothing. Checked my account, emails are all up to date, so rang them, and the lady said she will delete and re enter my details. Hopefully this triggers something in their systems and I start receiving emails/offers again
 
Was asked today at self-checkout if I was using a giftcard to buy. I was (a CG&M bought elsewhere to maximise Local Champ points). Replied yes and not stopped from swiping-maybe I was too quick for her to protest. Told the lady that there was a good offer on-all smiles

Unsubscribing and then subscribing again to particular emails sometimes works as well.
 
How many did you buy? I could only find $800 worth at Eastgardens NSW store on the weekend. Otherwise no supply.

From 23 aug - 28 aug bought 70. For today 55 visit 6 coles in total. The first 4 store no stock, the last 2 I took all ( smithfield and fairfield ).

Plenty of stock located at miranda and around ( which I visited last week, im too lazy go back there ).
