I just went to the 7/11 at work for a afternoon snack and found that the Streets Magnum Almond ice cream have a free Gold Class Upgrade for Cinemas!

Couldnt find any details of the current offer on their website though. Looks like it's still pretty new.

Ive taken a picture of the wrapper that has this information. (Took it with my HTC Magic Phone :D )
To view the wrapper click: http://upload.ozbargain.com/2009/06/24/2059_imag0018.jpg

Promo Starts: 13/08/09
Prom Ends: 14/10/09

ps. Dont forget to get the MASSIVE Sundae whist you are at the Gold Class! It's highly recommended!

UPDATE: 28/06/09
They have a flash site up now so bookmark this website for more information:

UPDATE: 30/06/09
From jbk: "AND make sure the Magnum you buy have the 2009 promo dates on it, and not the 2008 dates. I did not check the date, just saw “Gold Class” and bought it :( Already ate it, so hope I don’t get sick lols."

    AWESOME! I love this offer last year. The only time I've ever been to Gold Glass and its worth it.

    http://mymagnum.com.au/

    • Kranbone on 25/06/2009 - 21:29

      I've never been and intend to definitely try it out, thanks for sharing your experience.

      Great deal btw hence the positive.

      • voter1 on 25/06/2009 - 23:44

        My experience of gold glass was that its only average. I guess its better if you're the type of person that wants a waiter while you're watching a movie and want some fancy food to order too.

        • Turd on 29/06/2009 - 00:23

          The seats are reclining seats and there are limited, only ~30-35 people, in the room.

          Did I mention the Sundae is awesome? :D
          Then again this is freeeeeeeeee upgrade so might as well :D Also comes with the yummy Magnam :P

    • QQQ - CatchOfTheDay on 02/07/2009 - 10:25

      Does the seating in gold class allow for couples? La premier is separate for some stupid reason.

      • zhenjie on 07/07/2009 - 11:07

        It's two separate seats, big armrest in middle. Hard to get some couple'ish action going on

        La Premier seats I've been to have always had fold away armrest?

  • Rocket on 25/06/2009 - 16:43

    I hope it's back. Went last time as well +1

    A much better offer that the "La Premier" offer I found for a so called "bargain". And it means I MUST have a Magnum as well, life can be tough for someone on a diet. Thanks for the info.

    • aggregate on 25/06/2009 - 17:28

      Give the magnum to someone else and keep the wrapper yourself. I think it is still worth it.

    legendary find .. stopping by the "quik-e-mart" to pick up my magnum after work ;-)

  • [Deactivated] on 25/06/2009 - 17:28

    I wonder why it starts 6 weeks from now but you can buy the specially marked magnums already?

    • machej on 28/06/2009 - 12:24

      it takes time for remote places to restock the icecreams I guess…

  • BlahBlahBlahBlah on 25/06/2009 - 18:05

    Love this deal, great to see it back

  • SmiTTy on 25/06/2009 - 18:37

    sigh … went to the local servo station today (in Sydney) and the magnum's there didnt have the promo on it :(

    Im guessing there probably still being distributed , so not all places would stock the newly labelled magnums .. although keep an eye out for them :)

  • samfisher5986 on 25/06/2009 - 18:42

    Does anyone know any tips for actually getting a ticket?

    Last time this promo was on I only got to go once (had many upgrade vouchers)

    The main problem is you can only buy the ticket on the same day, so you have to beat all the people that buy before the day.

    • zhenjie on 25/06/2009 - 20:05

      I thought you just had to register and download the voucher, and then you can goto any Gold Class screening that was available?

      • samfisher5986 on 25/06/2009 - 20:18

        You download the voucher and redeem it for a ticket. The problem is that it was almost always booked out.

        • zhenjie on 25/06/2009 - 22:29

          Arr I get you now. Yeah nighttimes and weekends would be pretty booked out. I tend to go during the day.

  • Tardvark on 25/06/2009 - 19:54

    Good find.

  • Turd on 25/06/2009 - 23:54

    Dont forget to get the MASSIVE Sundae whist you are at the Gold Class! It's highly recommended!

  • Augh on 26/06/2009 - 01:25

    The last time you could only get the upgrade on a full priced ticket purchased on the day.
    They refused to give me an upgrade on a break down voucher even though I had paid full price for that movie.

    are the restrictions the same this time?

  • Natt on 26/06/2009 - 09:02

    woot

    I have been keeping an eye out for this one - dang you ;)

    Vote high for this one - its a great find!!

  • blitz on 26/06/2009 - 09:44

    Does anyone think this will work at Dendy?

    I tried their ludicrous Flash website but stuff me if I can find anything on there.

  • djones145 on 26/06/2009 - 10:05

    tried this last year, it was awesome!

  • Natt on 26/06/2009 - 10:09

    oops I forgot to mention - now all we need is a post for the magnums (although I guess it will take a while for the stock to come through)

    If anyone sees a promotion for them in a major chain (such as a service station) please post it :)

    I also forgot to mention the wrapper picture is great!

  • atlas on 26/06/2009 - 10:38

    Can't you use this to book over the phone in advance? I think I did last time…

      Castle Hill recently opened their gold class (last week or so). Would that count?

  • BOC14 on 26/06/2009 - 13:08

    Took advantage of this last year and can't wait to do so again! Great deal and thoroughly enjoyed it!

  • tinx on 26/06/2009 - 15:54

    anyone have direct link to download the form ???
    can't find it on mymagnum.com.au…

    • zhenjie on 26/06/2009 - 15:55

      Looks like they haven't released it yet. The website is terrible eh!

      • tinx on 26/06/2009 - 16:13

    Totally off topic, but are you happy with your HTC Magic?

    I've got the HTC Touch and am ready to upgrade ;-)

    • Turd on 26/06/2009 - 16:24

      Magic is great! Nice n small and browses the web and have exchange email sycned really well. It's very customiseable, with so many aps etc…
      A lot better than the iphone!

  • djkizz on 26/06/2009 - 16:39

    :-o I didn't realise the promo started in August 2009 T_T I just went out specifically to get two icecreams… Have to hold them until August now…

    • jennkei on 27/06/2009 - 03:56

      Yarh, same problem! :( Sigh..

    • jigglycho on 30/06/2009 - 11:19

      Where did you get your ice-creams? I'm struggling to find any with the gold class thing on it. :(

  • SimBer on 27/06/2009 - 10:41

    So is gold class worth it?
    How does it compare to a regular movie?

    • frozensolid on 27/06/2009 - 16:24
      +2

      It's the best! Once you go gold, you never want to go back to standard :(
      (Though one's wallet often tends to say otherwise)

    • machej on 28/06/2009 - 12:20

      better seats (Some have electric reclining seats), free popcorn, meals when u watch, button for service.

      • looseylu on 28/06/2009 - 17:28

        u get free popcorn? last time i went it wasnt free..

        • voter1 on 29/06/2009 - 11:00

          wasnt free for me either - and the nazi waiter wouldnt let you bring in the outside food I was already eating at the time.
          The other thing I didnt like was the waiter always walking around back and forth during the movie. I found it highly distracting.

          I find it better if you go to a regular movie saturday mornings, no-one is there so you dont have to put up with idiots in the cinema; plus you can put your feet up into the next row if you want. Also you can choose the best seat as the 300 seat cinema is practically empty!

          The problem with gold class is that there are only 8 good seats of the 30 something.
          I had to sit on the side and thought its just as bad as sitting on the side in a regular movie.

        • machej on 29/06/2009 - 12:32

          well maybe it was just at the time… I went to the village cinemas at crown this month…

  • arcticmonkey on 27/06/2009 - 21:41

  • [Deactivated] on 29/06/2009 - 20:28

    Ok, I don't get it. The deal is exellent, but after reading what the gold class actually offers (better seats, less people and some over priced food can be ordered) I can't help but think that it's stricktly for the couples and not for a single guy like me. Am I to believe that all those people who gave a positive have a partner to go with? :)

    • AntMan76 on 29/06/2009 - 20:31

      Don't you have friends? You don't have to pash in there you know.

          Then invite a male friend and hope he doesn't get any funny ideas ?

  • atlas on 29/06/2009 - 22:03

    The seats are so huge and far apart that it's actually quite awkward to even reach the person next to you, let alone pash.

  • Rocket on 29/06/2009 - 22:24
    +3

    I was given some free tickets to GC and went to the Jam Factory on Saturday night with my wife. We had a lovely evening, the seats are REALLY comfortable and you press a button to recline them. The food was very nice, although a little expensive (I didn't mind as the seats were free). We could easily hold hands and were not that far apart.

    Overall I can highly recommend it, especially using this deal (as I did last year).

  • Turd on 30/06/2009 - 15:04

    I just went back to the 7/11 that I originally got the magnum from and they had no more Magnum Almond Flavours left! :(

    The guy said he'll order some in for me.

    Hopefully they will have the Gold Class wrapper.

  • Ultraman on 30/06/2009 - 15:16

    AND make sure the Magnum you buy have the 2009 promo dates on it, and not the 2008 dates. I did not check the date, just saw "Gold Class" and bought it :( Already ate it, so hope I don't get sick lols.

    • [Deactivated] on 30/06/2009 - 16:08

      wow, what was the expiry date on it?

      • Turd on 30/06/2009 - 16:14

        lol 1+ yr old ice cream? dammmmm

        • Ultraman on 30/06/2009 - 21:29

          OMG!! My missus bought from petrol station shop when filling petrol and i just checked her wrapper also has 2008 dates!! o.O So yeah, if you need to rummage around to find a Magnum with "Gold Class" make sure it definitely says 2009. That is two completely different places (7/11 in city, and Woolies servo) who don't yet have the 2009 stock yet I guess?!

      • Ultraman on 30/06/2009 - 21:30

        "Promotion opens 07/08/08 & closes 05/11/08…"

  • Natt on 30/06/2009 - 16:08

    Last year in addition to the upgrade offer they ran (or at least when I was there) a corresponding food offer at the cinema itself

    cant remember speficially what it was, but was OK for the price - included a magnum, some popcorn and something else I forget

    • AntMan76 on 30/06/2009 - 16:17

      Yeah I remember going to gold class last year with this promo and getting a couple more magnums (with promo label) on special at the snack bar thingy.

  • machej on 30/06/2009 - 18:57

    Went to 7/11 at caulfeld south and they didn't have the branded ones…

  • jigglycho on 11/07/2009 - 18:35

    Anyone found any with the gold class deal?
