Please no. We all know that 7-Eleven is an organisation that, as a matter of corporate policy exploits its employees. 7-Eleven's business model is based on the exploitation of employees, and if 7-Eleven doesn't conduct itself illegally, it will go broke. Please don't shop at 7-Eleven. Please don't post 'deals' for 7-Eleven.
So are you suggesting that no one should shop at 7-Eleven, which would cause sales to drop, which would mean less hours for those staff which you claim to care about?
No one is disputing that 7-Elevens actions is condonable but I don't think a boycott is the answer in this case.
I'm suggesting that 7-Eleven, as an organization, needs to be shut down. It is illegal for them to employ staff at half of the minimum legal wage, it is illegal for them to employ staff in breach of their visa conditions, it is illegal to falsify employment records, it is fraud to represent to the government that they are acting in compliance with the law when in fact they are not.
The exploited staff at 7-Eleven are victims and they are trapped. Once they get on the 7-Eleven treadmill, they can't leave because their franchise managers will report them to the Department of Immigration and they risk being deported.
Shutting down 7-Eleven in its entirety will free workers from the risk of deportation and give them the opportunity to move on to legitimate jobs with legitimate rates of pay, and earn the same amounts they were earning at 7-Eleven for LITERALLY half of the hours they're doing at 7-Eleven. They'll have the time they need to devote to study and life.
Shutting down 7-Eleven will HELP its victims.
So yeah, a boycott - though I hate that ugly, childish word - is absolutely the answer in this case. A big part of the answer, in any case.
So in your scenario you are also 'helping' those employees of 7-Eleven franchises that are doing the right thing but will also be out of a job as a result.
Most of the workers are not in their uniforms for the job, they are there coz they have been threatened with deportation from the country if they leave or complain.
No, that's not what I said at all, but thanks for watching.
but if they give them double hours then they can get a living wage. All good.
we should all shop at asian grocery stores instead! they get paid at least a whole 50c less an hour :)
Most of them don't even pay their employees, most of them are just their offspring, on school holidays. I know, I was one of them.
i worked in numerous shop where we all got paid. but just $9 an hour
btw youre the child stop complaining. help your parents out.
Not one complaint from me mate, it's the best thing that's happened to me, just telling it how it is.
I just tried this with my regular afternoon $1 coffee - and the staff the barcode didn't work. The register said it had already been used.
C'mon Telstra
Worked for me. At first he said it was already used, then he pressed a few other buttons, scanned again and it worked. They're probably just finding an excuse not to honour it.
glad it worked for you. neg revoked!
I don't think it's a Telstra issue. It happened to me and 7-Eleven mentioned they sometimes have issues with their system. They scanned mine twice before it worked.
They are exploiting workers. Boycott 7 Eleven
Boycott 7 Eleven
How does redeeming something for free support their business?
Shouldn't you be imploring people to exploit the deal?

I wonder if Telstra is paying 7 Eleven for each coffee redeemed though?
Telstra will have done a deal with 7-Eleven head office whereby Telstra pay a token amount (maybe twenty cents or so) to head office for each coffee redeemed. 7-Eleven corporate will make a nice profit out of this, but you can be sure that the franchisees and employees will be harmed by it.
Tried it at my local 7-eleven. Code didn't work (redeemed about a minute earlier), cashier initially wanted me to pay, but then waved me away when I didn't put up a fight about paying the $1.
Is there a way to offer feedback through the app about the Treats?
Never hot chocolates, eh? Cost twice as much I guess.
Am I the only one that's always too scared to try things like this? Even though they are free, many employees act as of you're asking for an organ donation with you're freebie. It's not like it comes out of their pay or anything so I dont really get what they act that way.
I just tried to use it at 7/11 Pitt st (sydney city) and the guy scanned the barcode a few times and said it wasn't working. After a discussion for a minute he let me have it but wasn't that happy about it.
They should be able to manually enter the code to apply the discount if their scanner is not working.
The barcode scanned OK (ie. it beeped) but nothing happened. ie. The barcode wasn't in their system.
Does not come up in the system at the 7/11 Caulfield Station. The worker scanned it twice, manually entered it and then finally just let me have it
I think it gets taken out of their pay.
