QFF points under $30 on Woolworths Everyday Rewards

Have you tried to park there?I have.

Perhaps people are just using it as a carpark. Last time I was in the area, which would have been about 2008, it was empty.

 

[yo yo ma]

Exactly... I have only been in there once and it was reasonably full in store. People like to complain for something to do at the time but most eventually come around. That is why large companies are smart enough to battle on... It is worth it in the end.

It is like when Pacific Brands (Bonds) got some negative publicity ~a year ago re redundancies. Most have now forgotten about it and are happy to pay the reduced prices. Their shares dropped to a low of ~0.14c but are now sitting at $1.17 today.

I'm sorry to say but I'm still trying to work out exactly how woolies is a multinational company, or what would be an example of a US multinational.

As for Maleny, well the hippies sold out years ago with their commercial markets gunning for the tourist dollar. Just like Kuranda did as well. So they deserve a woolies.

Anyway, so has anyone actually got points for spending less than $30?

Trying to wade through all the static and I don't believe anyone is getting QFF points for spending less than $30 at Woolworths.

I know some people who go overseas and find time for shopping. I cannot be bothered to buy clothes overseas firstly as I do not waste time shopping for clothes on my holiday and secondly clothes are already cheap at places like Woolworths, Target, K-Mart, Lowes etc.

That does appear to be the consensus.

The first part or second part?

Some people just aren't into designer clothes. In fact some may even use the word despise....

 

[yohy?!]

Update for those interested re the OP....

I've not received any further points for spend below $30. The previous instances appear to be anomalies that occurred at BWS only (possibly a system setup issue that was resolved).

True enough. Some just aren't into cheap, shapeless flanelette and fleece either...

Is there something in between?

 

[We Won't Shop There]

Is there something in between?

Inbetween designer clothes and cheap shapeless stuff? Only the profit margins. They're probably all made in the same Chinese or Indian factory.

 

[serfty]

What about "Cheap Shaped Stuff"?

I can guess where most clothes are manufactured.

I remember many years ago buying a pair of trousers for $39 and exactly the same pair of trousers under a different label in David Jones was $79. The person purcshasing at David Jones must have thought they were getting better quality for the price they paid.

But they are! It's called quality control. 100 pairs are made. David Jones take the best 30. K-Mart and Big-W get the "left overs"

 

[Warks]

I picked up a massive 5 points through the Big W double points deal. I just got an email thanking me as well. Funny thing is that the points haven't even been doubled, not that it would make much difference and no, I'm not going to follow it up.
(I spent $35).

Are you sure? They all looked the same quality to me. But then who am I to know about quality control....

 

[tanewi]

That does appear to be the consensus.



*cringe*

Yup You got it - JohnK is NOT a fashion plate are you? BTW - I thought that your mum still buys your clothes for you?

 

[Skyring]

Benefit them marketing research? :!::?: I still scan it, as sometimes there are promotions?

Every now and then I get a message offering double points on some category. They obviously look to see what I buy a lot of and pick their moment to offer me a deal when I'm looking to restock. Things like coffee or cider or personal lubricants - whatever the computer spits out.

What I really need is a bigger wallet to hold all these loyalty cards. Can't they just implant a chip or something that keeps track of all this stuff?

 

[medhead]

Just realised that I have got points for a spend less than $30. Namely for bonus offers, the most recent being 100 points for purchasing $10 of boxed chocolate. In the past, 500 points for buying 3 catalog items from BigW.

Mobile phone, maybe, one day...

Nominated bonus point items are not subject to the minimum spend, I got 100 pts when I got the up DVD for $12.
