How to tell which items earned Woolies Dollars?

Hi All,
Does anyone know if it's possible to know from your Woolies docket which items earned Woolies dollars?

For example, I shopped at Woolies last week and spent about $80. Nothing I bought had a shelf ticket that said it earned Woolies Dollars. After I checked out and looked at my docket it said I had earned $31 Woolies Dollars for that shop. I have no clue how? But I would have liked to know as I may have bought more of the items that were earning the dollars.

I could not see anything obvious on the docket, unless I'm stupid.

If there is no way to tell from the docket, is there any other easy way (apart from trawling through specials catalogues, emails?).

I was quite surprised at how many dollars can be earned when not even shopping for any.

Thanks.

  • There's a heap of offers on Woolworths Rewards cards at the moment, for spending a certain amount (either in one shop or over multiple shops in a single week) and then you earn bonus Woolies dollars. I've received two in the past couple of weeks so it's likely you have a similar offer active on your card. There's usually a reference to it in one of those multiple sections that seem to print on the bottom of every Woolies receipt these days! I'd think it would be practically impossible to earn 30 WW$ in a single shop from "orange ticket" items, especially as you didn't see any tickets for the items you bought.

    • I think $10 of it was from a "spend $40 get $10 Woollies dollars" offer. But I was more curious to know which items earned me the Woolies dollars as I had no way of knowing and probably would have bought more. The Woolies I shop at is a pretty hopeless store and the staff are mostly really useless, maybe they just couldn't be bothered putting up the price tickets that show what earns Woolies dollars (assuming everything that earns Woolies dollars would have a ticket saying so - unless it's purposely hidden so they don't lose too much money).

      I did notice about 3 items in the store that had such a price ticket, but I wasn't exactly looking for them, but I do look at the price ticket for every item I buy and none had a Woollies dollar ticket.

      • maybe they just couldn't be bothered putting up the price tickets

        Do you mind posting a list of all the items you bought so i/others can cross check the next time i/we visit WW?

        Edit: taking $10 out of the "activated offer" leaves $21 unaccounted for which is not bad from an $80 shop

      • As far as I know, there's no way to tell from your receipt which individual items (if any) earned WW$ - the only way to check is probably to trawl through the list of "orange ticket" items on the Woolworths website: https://www.woolworths.com.au/Shop/ProductGroup/dnd-woolwort…

  • i got an email saying if i spent $190 in week 1 ( last week ) i would get a $30 credit .. you might have the same but didnt know ( although i had to activate the offer )

    They gave that for my 2nd week too .. bonus $60 total

    I also got a get 30 cents for each $1 spent on cheese, worked well, 30% off all cheese, even cheese that is on special ..

  • -1

    dont bother and shop at coles/aldi/costco/rightprice for real savings…
    screw woolworths and there spend more to save later policy

    I voted with my pocket

      It's a lot easier to vote with your pocket if you live in a State that has Costco, Aldi etc - I do more of my shopping at Coles these days, but the only other choices are IGA (which overall is more expensive than the two majors) or Woolworths, so can't wait until Aldi starts opening up stores here in WA next year.

  • Sometimes the stores don't put up all the orange tickets on the shelves.

    There is a 20cents Woolworths Dollars promotion on Select 2 litre milk at the moment but my local Woolworths doesn't have this listed anywhere in the milk fridge.

    The only theory about the mystery dollars that I have is it might be part of the Scan to Win promotion that is running every week at the moment.

    • I've found this as well - I've been into 3 different Woolies stores in the past week and none of them have the ticket up for the milk promotion, yet the 20 cents is added to the WW$ total at the checkout. I've also noticed other "orange ticket" items advertised in the catalogue or on the Woolies website that don't have tags in-store.

      Yes, you could be right about the Scan to Win promotion - it would be nice to hear that SOMEONE'S won something from that! I don't know anyone who has and I haven't won anything either (despite scanning my card on multiple small shops over the past few weeks).

        • Hmmm, not many considering there's supposed to be 10,000 of these up for grabs each week - and for the two-week period in November there were 500,000 to be won! Maybe more Osbargainers have won but not realised or haven't marked their win.
