EDIT: Looks like the eBay vouchers will be issued Monday onwards, and the liquor deals expire next Wednesday (Thanks rack). Don't buy groupon Ebay vouchers unless you think the liquor specials from next Thursday will also be decent.
Hi Guys,
Had this idea of combining the $180 woolworths eVoucher for $150 deal with the $100 eBay voucher for $85 from groupon deal to get some cheap booze!
By combining both deals, you’re essentially getting a $180 woolworths voucher for $135, which is a 25% saving. I know that I certainly won’t be able to spend $180 on groceries, so had a look at the alcohol… not bad. Although usually pretty expensive, an 25% saving on its special items beats Dans hands down.
Possibly even stackable with the 10% off $150 order deal… but I’m just going to pretend it isn’t stackable for now. (let me know in the comments if it is)
Risks
If you already have groupon eBay vouchers, good for you. If you are planning to buy the eBay vouchers now, the group deal MIGHT sell out/be pulled early before the groupon vouchers arrive. However this is extremely unlikely as there is 9 days to go, and on today the first day it only sold 500 (around 3% of total)
Woolworths can change the T&C’s and alcohol pricings at any time they wish, but typical alcohol specials last for 14 days, for example see this pricehipster graph. Most of the specials below have just started today, so it should last two weeks if woolworths doesn’t do anything dodgy, more than enough time for you to receive vouchers and order.
Anything can happen really, but I will not be responsible for any losses and emotional traumas that may result in the event of any changes.
Sample deals:
- 2x Johnnie Walker Red Labels 1L + 2x Chivas regal 12yo 700mL + $1 of groceries for $150 (after Discounted WW eVoucher) or $135 (after Discounted WW + eBay eVouchers)
- 3x Chivas Regal 12yo + Johnnie Walker Double Black 700mL for $151 (after Discounted WW eVoucher) or $136 ((after Discounted WW + eBay eVouchers)
Anyways below is a table with a comparison to Dans, I’ve only included reasonably priced items which are >$20 in value. Credit to pricehipster for helping me out with finding discounts.
Remember that the theoretical discount is 25% if you manage to get exactly $180 of items into your cart. Treat it as a $45 off $180 deal.
