BigW is selling this bundle for $338 on 21/12/09 - 24/12/09.
As Myer have price match policy + combined with "10% Bonus Gift Cards" promotion and bingo you have a steal deal.

You also earn points if you're Myer One member…Free to apply in store!
+ A chance to see Jennifer Hawkins… via poster of course :)
Well think of this way…Pay $300 to see her poster and get free Wii + Games…can't get better than that! :)
in your deal, still need to pay $308-$300= $8 for Wii + Games. not free right? ;-)
$8 to touch :)
I'm sure those posters didn't stated "display only…no touching" ;o)
is this from a PDF…if so please post it (referring to BIG W's price)
It's in their latest catalogue.
Give me a sec…I'll scan it and post up.
thanks. im going to go see if they'll price match now, even though the catalogue hasn't started yet
I'm sorry, but this isn't a bargain if you need to go to the effort of doing a price match, as well as buying gift cards up to the value before you buy the wii (that's a separate bargain).
You could just post the Big W deal if you think it's good value, and if people see the Myer deal and decide to go to the effort of price matching, plus buying the gift cards, then they can vote positive on the gift card deal.
You can do it in 1 go from 21st-24th as the gift card end on 24th!
If you want to save extra $30 you havce to do the work. You want the food put straight into your mouth?
As the BigW deal is already bargain but why have to post 2 when can put them into 1?
Here's the link of the pic.

myer doesnt price match anything below cost
I had numerous price matching experiences in Myer against really major retailers, all deemed under cost and refused to match. I think it's a bit waste of time too if savings aren't significant.
I agree. Price matching is a pain to do, plus for $30 savings, because of a separate deal, no thanks.
juicedpixels… I think you're in the wrong forum mate! Most of OzBargainers in here want to save as much as they can.
I had no problem price match at Myer before as they have their price match policy. If they ring up other stores have item in stock then will sell you for that price.
Noslee… next time if they refuse as them to read their price match policy!
Go mega super deal combos !!!!
There should be a weekly prize for the person who can combine the best promo's and deals for the best ozbargain!
if you can get price match at Myer (which is very likely if a Big W is nearby) then $30 off is equivalent to 10% discount, so i think most OzBargainers would say this is significant enough.
this isn't a bargain. its just telling people to price match big w, and use the gift cards(which are a bargain).
no deal.
No deal - would have voted +ve for the Big W deal
Stix - is this a payback for PR's posting in your wii for sale listing?
I think this a good deal. A bit of a pain, but a good deal. Certainly the cheapest way to get a Wii before Xmas.
However, I wouldn't be buying the gift cards until I had the price match confirmed.
Agreed with you not buying the gift cards before hand. But since gift cards promotion end on 24th so worth to give it ago in 1 shot on early 21st or maybe on 19th or 20th if they willing to price match before BigW sale start.
I would certainly give Myer a go, no harm in asking to save you another 30ish or even ring them up.
Don't know why people don't like this deal as it's only a phone call away.
Maybe the hassle of dealing with Myer probably is putting people off. In some stores some days you're lucky to even find a shop assistant.
other two are goods deals.. but not this…
should just post this info just under the deal discussions and not as a separate bargain
don't want ppl start posting "price matching at officeworks deals" all the time.
Agree with Ash.
Where is the Myer's price match policy?
Agreed… they don't price match below a certain price..
I like these wicked price match/scam combos
Keep them coming - next will be someone paying us to take it.
You have motion plus as being included in the package, but the catalog does not list it. Is it now part of the standard package?
Agreed. I can't see anything saying the motion plus is included. Anyone confirm this?
Just figured it out. Wii Sports Resort comes with a bonus Motion Plus.
Did anyone have any luck with getting Myer to honour this?
WARNING: THEY WILL NOT PRICE MATCH AS MYERS HAVE THROWN IN TWO WII REMOTES ( 3RD PARTY) IN THE OFFER SO THEY WILL NOT MATCH BIGW! - LIVERPOOL STORE
Edit: Oops posting on my rep account
Total rubbish. No way Myer will price match on either of these.
lol, love the hawkins references…
Would go to myer just for a chance to see a poster of her :P
