Woolworths reviewing partnership with Qantas Frequent Flyer.

[Mr_Orange]

Very true, but a family member just got a good offer. Spend $155 each of The next two weeks for $50 wow. That means for $310 they will get 4,350 points!

Except that you can't redeem your WWRupiah for the QFF points until the middle of next year, by which time your WWR50 will have been used as a discount on your shopping!

So are we. Wouldn't be flying to HKG tomorrow?

Well the Woolies offers on this side of Oz are few and far between. Last week it included a few WW$ on the more expensive pasta... And spending more than $100 on groceries now requires a bit of advance planning. (Yes no kids)

The other downside for all the uproar is that the petrol offers from Coles are a lot easier to redeem (WW Petrol is 2km out of the way)

At least it may be possible to continue keeping QFF accounts active without too much effort. And my popcorn bowl is still not empty.

Happy wandering

Fred

Problem is you still have to earn WW money to convert to QFF points.

How can you delay the Woolies dollars being used at the checkout until we are able to convert to QFF points?

It would seem that you can't, since once you accrue $10 it is automatically deducted from your next shop.

Of course, you could not swipe your WWR card, but then you wouldn't accrue any Rupiah in the first place!

Well, "fortunately" I've only earned about $4.60 in WW pesos (despite several shopping trips, including festive fare, totalling ~$1500 - deliberately avoiding the orange stickers!)
i think they're saying double QFF points anyway until 31 December, so I'm not planning to buy orange sticker items until 2016!

I'm not sure it's double QFFs. The wording is misleading in my opinion. I think what they are trying to say is that you get both Woolworths dollars (in some shopping trips) and you can earn QFF points as well. They are thinking that two types of rewards being "double" the rewards. Two is double one.

Agreed. I haven't read anything that says double (or even triple) QFF points.

Agreed. I haven't read anything that says double (or even tripple) QFF points.

Same here.

Painfully by splitting the shopping at the checkout into amounts <$9.99 so the discount doesn't come off.

Or cycle through the cards if you are not getting targetted offers.

Or just don't shop at Woolies until they get the new offer implemented.

Agree,this latest charade by Woolies has made me realise that there are shopping alternatives .

Wonder if it was created by the same people that brought us simpler and fairer lol

However until 31 Dec you are still SUPPOSED to be earning QFFs - although it is harder to find as they're nolonger printed on the docket.

So you need to keep your dockets and check every so often to see they come through. Amazing how often they haven't!
