Lavazza A Modo Mio Minu Coffee Machine - Free (up to $25.50 Profit) after $50 Cashback @ Target

2000

20/8: As many of you are wondering where your claim validation is being 10 days now, it has been confirmed that they have been a little overwhelmed with claims and will take an extra 5 days to catch up. Also 32 free pods appear to be on their way.

Lavazza currently has a cash back promo on their pod machines until 6/9/15.
The Minu is collecting $50, Target currently selling for $49 (EDIT: Some stores are now selling at $24.50) (normally $59) so technically you can profit $1 (or $25.50) on these.
Still $49 at my local Target as of 14/8.

Like printers they love to make their money from the consumables so entry price is low, but ongoing can be high. Think the pods run about $10-$12 for 16. They are a nice compact unit though, so I grabbed one to keep as a backup if my automatic machine dies. (Cheers to my bro for spotting the special)

Some important info as per the T&Cs:
"Cash back of Lavazza A Modo Mio Minu White Capsule Machines are only available from Target and Dick Smith" so no price matching elsewhere on these ones.

Also the cash back form hasn't been updated completely from the last promo, and after submitting will tell you that its outside the (previous) valid date range but it goes through OK. You'll receive a confirmation e-mail and Lavazza state they will notify you of your claims validity within 10 days. (This has also been confirmed here)

It has now also been confirmed that multiple claims are ok

Not currently available online but should be plenty of stock across Target stores (although is listed under Clearance on Target website so may vary).

    How long is it until the cash back appears in your account? I received the email about a week ago but no money yet.

    • Up to 28 days after you receive your email.

    • On the same boat here. Waiting for the reply as Target has only 30days change of mind refund. Really want to keep the machine and cash back instead of refund.

      • +1

        You got confirmation email? just a matter of time then, nothing to worry about.

        • Ya got the confirmation email but only one and i am claiming more than 1 unit.

        • @wtfnodeal: Yea you only get 1 confirmation email, even if you got more claims, They should all be approved anyway.

        • @wtfnodeal: I'm claiming more than one unit myself. I emailed lavazza and got a response 3 days later stating that the approval email signified that the cashback for all of my machines had been approved.

    ….and now they have put the free pods page back.
    Wonder if we will get them.

    • Nope:
      "This form is currently unavailable.
      Please check back soon or call 1300 675 613.
      Our apologies for the inconvenience."

        hahaha Oh right, gone again!
        I just rang them and someone is getting back to me with an answer to this mystery pod situation.
        Will update when I know more.

  • FWIW: I got the cash back, but no free pods, nor an email to say they were on their way …

  • Call me suspicious, but has anyone been paid the cashback yet? Pods like the rest, I'm awaiting also.

    • Yes, my single cashback paid nearly 2 weeks ago, as well as someone I know had a couple paid at once. No pods though.

  • Free pods is a bonus as it is fair for us to use the profit to buy the pods but it is obviously not the best marketing strategy as people might not end up buying more in future not knowing which flavor they like without getting free sample pods.

    • +3

      My profit was $1.

      • +1

        Just one more bargain like this and its straight to the $2 for you.
        You can buy a n y t h i n g.

  • So they didnt call me back, like they said they would.
    Typical…

    • Update?

      • +1

        Still waiting for callback as of yesterday.
        A new company has just taken over so they are not sure about all the processes yet. If more people keep calling asking for their pods maybe they will act. Give 'em a call.

        • I rang them also.
          Got told they have been recently taken over and are going through trying to "make head and tails" of what has happened.
          Promised a call back shortly

  • I rang them a minute ago and was told too that as of 1st Sep, the old business have been taken over and no free capsules. Instead you order one box of capsules online and they can give the second one for free.

    • This is a different business from where we get cash back isn't it? So cash back is not affected by this right.

    • Order one, get one free? There is a minimum quantity of 4 required for an online order through their store.

    • Last time I checked the online store was all out of stock. Are they in some sort of trouble? So once the retail store stocks are gone no more new pods from Lavazza?

      • They are in stock now. That appeared to be part of the change over of store operators.

  • My compatible pods arrived today :)
    $80 for 144 delivered within a week from Italy to regional WA.

  • How does the cashback look in your account when you get it? Does it say bank credit from Lavazza for the full $50? Its just that I have received some unknown payments in batches of $25 and thought it might be the lavazza cashback as I can't think of anything else.

    • +2

      Direct Debit Lavazza something and a few numbers. And its the full 50

  • Received all cashbacks today. Christmas sorted.

    • Received mine too

  • Got this email. Pretty sure I did everything correctly. Have emailed them to see why my claim wasn't honoured.

    "Good morning,

    Invalid Lavazza A Modo Mio cash back claim

    Thank you for submitting your cash back claim with Lavazza A Modo Mio. Your claim has unfortunately been deemed invalid as the details that you have provided do not meet all the requirements as set out in the promotion’s terms and conditions.

    Visit lavazza.com.au/promo for full terms and conditions.

    Your Lavazza A Modo Mio Team"

    • That sucks. Chase it up if you think you did it all correctly!

  • Received mine today. Great success! Thanks guys for posting this deal.

    No pods received though.

  • Got cash back from all claims today. I am a happy man. Now to off load these machines as Christmass presents

  • To those who have received their cashback today, when did you guys claim. I claimed on 10 August 2015 evening and got Cashback approved email on 21st Aug afternoon. Still not received my cashback in my ING Account !

    • One claimed on 7th Aug and one claimed on 14th Aug.I received $50 today so supposedly be the first one.Just wait and see if the second $50 would come through next Friday.

    • Claimed 7th Aug, received today.

  • Finally received my cash back today but already missed out the buy 5 get free frother promo. Hope they will run something like it again if they don't plan on sending the free pods.
    Thanks again OP and Lavazza.

    Received the cashback. Maybe I can return to Target and so someone else can purchase it tomorrow??

    • +1

      Sure. And don't forget to return the $50 cash back to Lavazza too.

  • Well bought a machine today for $49.. seem to be back in stock..

    • Online or in store?

      I got mine at the Bunbury store just over a week ago. They were still in stock a few days ago.

      • In store.. strange thing was when I scanned it a second time on the price check terminal it gave some sort of error for the pricing.

  • +1

    To everyone who hasn't received the free pods: I called up and as a new company has taken over distribution of the pods they had no record of my free pod order. They put in another order and I got the pods the next day.

    I also got the cashback on the same day.

    • +1

      I emailed and had a similar response. They asked what date I registered, and then asked for my address.

      It looks like the details weren't transferred to the new company that took over, so make sure you make contact if you want your 32 free pods.

      • Could you please tell me their email address or PM?

        Thank you in advance.

        • Ditto, what email account can we please send our request through to ?

        • +1

          I replied to the registration confirmation email which was from [email protected]

  • Got my cashback today. Maybe the free pods will arrive in due course. Thanks OP!

  • Cash back arrived over the weekend. No sign of the 32 free pods unfortunately. I have received my first order from the online store with free box of capsules, free shaker and free lattemento frother - despite all the negative reviews it's working ok so far!!

    • Have you called like FadetoBLACK said to find out the free 32 pods? Well at least you didn't miss out the buy 5 pods get free frother deal. Hope they bring this promo back.

  • -4

    Would it be ok to return the machine to Target after receiving the cashback?

    • Possible, yes. Ethical, no.

    • Judging by the number of neg you are going to get the moral answer is NO

  • Got my refund…..still no free coffe trial yet tho

  • +1

    Definitely recommend that people email Lavazzo regarding their free pods. Seems that no one will be getting them unless you ask.

  • Thanks for the heads up guys. I haven't seen my pods so I just called them on 1300675613. They took my details and said that I should receive the pods within the week.

    • How many set are you claiming? If more than one, did you tell them all at the same time?

      • I only asked for the 32 free pods for registering my machine. My $50 cashback has already been paid into my account.

  • Got my pods dispatched email!!
    High five! No cashback yet though

    • +1 here.

  • Also got tracking order confirmation for free pods.

  • Yes I got my free pods dispatched email today also!

  • +2

    Just reclaim the pods on their website now.I got dispatched email and no phone call was made.

    • thanks.

      how long before they sent the dispatch email after you re-registered your machine on their site?

      • I did it on Monday this week.

    • Thanks. Will re-register tonight. No harm trying to get free pods.

    • Got my dispatch email too, didnt have to call or email. registered back on the 7th aug.

      • wow, got it today, that was quick. Shipped as air express post. Living out in regional WA :)

  • I have also got dispatch email and it looks like to be delivered today. little late but great service! Thank you all guys and Lavazza!

    Got my cashback and sold the machines at local broker for extra profits

    • The whole cash back idea is to get the machines off the retail shelves to consumers and now you put it back on a pawn broker's shelf?

      • Sorry. Didn't know the idea behide that.

        • I think ethically you're OK. It's much better than those other guys who wanted to return it to Target.

        • @badarz: technically ok not ethically ok unless you tried the coffee and hated it then pawned it. Otherwise your intention buying and claiming cash back and selling for profit is ethically wrong. Lavazza gave you cash back not because it wanted to share profit with you but to let you give it a chance to try its coffee.

  • Strange I've received no submission confirmation email and no communication since then.. nada… Might give them a call Monday. I was very late to purchase like on the 2nd last day of the promotion period. That would have been last week. While I'm at it I might as well esquire about my pods lol ^^

  • My coffee machine has broken already :(

    Back to Target on Monday … !!

    Cheers

    Richard

    • What happened to it? How did it break?

      • Not sure - fairly regular use, maybe 5 coffees a day tops, now the green light flashes, but then turns to a red flashing light - checked all the obvious things, water not overfilled, collection thing emptied, unplugged, replugged, still the same …

        Cheers

          On another happy note - Target had no replacements in stock (Perth, WA), so explained to Lavazza and they sent a free replacement (which is good, as my wife had already bought a few packs of pods!!).

          I'm glad I have a happy customer story to share :)

          Cheers

          Richard

  • I just re-submit here to see if they will deliver the free pods:
    http://store.amodomio.com.au/free-capsules

    • Or just email the customer support from the above link. I have a reply email said would post me the free pods if I could provide the shipping address.

    I haven't received my cashback yet, but I have received the free pods. I got the confirmation email for the cashback on the 21st of August so it's nearly 28 days! Is there anyone else in my position who hasn't received their cashback?

    • Same here - pods no cashback

    • claimed 2, received 1. Contacted them and responded need to wait for 28 days, that's this Fri. Will make more noise after then

  • has anyone received the free pods without receiving a shipping confirmation first?

    I did call them up (and email them) and spoke to them about not getting the free pods for my 3 machines, but so far haven't received a shipping confirmation for my free pods.

    • I spoke to them last week and today got the dispatch email. Just give it a bit of time

  • Yes, I sent them email after I submitted my second registration and they sent me email of the pods was on its way to my address with tracking number.
    I checked the status this morning on Fastway couriers website they are in transit.
    Not sure if they will arrive today.

    • OK, I received my 1x16 pods this afternoon.
      The delivery is quick.

  • You guys received pods? i got the cashback a while ago, but no pods:(

  • oh no! i cant find the registration email for the free pods. what should i do now?
