MOD UPDATE: Please note that there seems to be a lot of confusion as to when the dollar day deal will become active (Wednesday, Thursday, Friday).

I would suggest that everyone go by the deal posted by 7Eleven rep on OzBargain in the following deal post:

http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/28650

If you happen to drop by a 7-Eleven outlet tomorrow, Wednesday 28th, and the deal is active, feel free to update your fellow bargain hunters here (hopefully there’s something left on the shelves).

Perfect for those who missed the first one!

It's dollar deal day again this Thursday the 29th of July at 7-Eleven, Mother 300ml cans, Cadbury Medium Bars, Kettle Chips, Donuts, 4n20 Snack sausage rolls and Muffins are back for only $1!.

The only thing different this time around is we are offering Heaven Varieties and Dare 500ml flavoured milk!

Please note that Muffins will still only be available in Vic and NSW only.

July 29 · 12:00am - 11:30pm

VIC, NSW & QLD stores only

MOD: According to the facebook page, the event is on the thursday, not the friday. you can make an informed decision which is correct. http://www.facebook.com/pages/7-Eleven-Australia/13294599674…

  • retiredfeline on 23/07/2010 - 17:31

    I'll have another go, but only if I happen to be around a 7/11 early in the morning. Otherwise I suspect it will be a waste of time. I'm sure the tweets are flying around the nets as I write. A mate of mine did get some Mother yesterday though.

  • BargainMe on 23/07/2010 - 18:04

    I bought a couple of sausage rolls for lunch- weren't too bad considering the price.

  • inherentchoice on 23/07/2010 - 18:42
    +1

    The items that will be available for $1 include: Mother 300ml cans, Goulburn Valley 500ml Flavoured milk, Cadbury Medium Bars, Kettle 100gm chips, Cornettos, Donuts, 4n20 Snack sausage rolls.

    One more item will be announced closer to the date.

    Funny that they're still calling it 500ml Flavoured milk (it's 600ml) and that they misspelled doughnuts by using a word which is probably trademarked by Donut King.

    • Josh81 on 23/07/2010 - 20:25

      Yeah i thought it was 600ml.

    • [Deactivated] on 23/07/2010 - 23:11

      Donuts is a generic, non brand-specific word used by many companies- ie the huge US chain Dunkin' Donuts

      the 500mL flavoured milks are actually Dare Iced Coffee

        Sweet! Is there a limit on how much you can buy? Will they stop me if I buy like 30 $1 items?

        • Josh81 on 23/07/2010 - 20:26

          The signs say limit of 8 items per person.

        • jennkei on 23/07/2010 - 21:03

          It depends on the location. I've heard some have a limit of 5 per item/total, some a limit of 8 per item/total, and others have no limits.

          The one I went to had no limit.

  • Save Medicare on 23/07/2010 - 19:13

    This is great I got 20 cans of mother yesterday. I really hope that the mystery new item is something that can be stored for a while.

    Spoiler: mystery item is Heaven icecreams, all varieties

    My local 7/11 accidentally put up the poster for the 30th yesterday, which listed Heavens as $1.

    Just my two cents, could be wrong, but I scored a couple of em before they realised they had the wrong poster up and swapped it with the correct one

    Shame i'm on a diet, otherwise i'd go ape shit on kettle and heaven, in fact pretty much everything on the $1 list.

        I'm sure they at least least break even on most items, and more than likely see increases in profit on that days average due to increased traffic and return customers.

        And 7/11 isn't always expensive. 4L of milk for $5 is good value. Or two loaves of bread.

  • jug_head on 24/07/2010 - 02:56

    I am also informed by my local 7-11 that it will be heaven.

    My local is awesome, they get heaps of stock in (except donuts) and let you buy as many as you want.

    I've also never had fresher cornettos than what I enjoyed yesterday. Love that caramel hokey pokey - never had it before.

    How do they make money? The companies like Goulburn Valley do a deal with 7-11 for the dollar day deal. so the retailer still makes a decent margin - plus you might also buy other things which have a higher mark-up. Plus the prices are similar to what you can get on discounts in supermarkets (except kettle chips -i've never seen them that cheap anywhere) so its not like there are no margins left.

    EDIT: my local says that the $1 day will be on THURSDAY and that they will be selling DARE not goulburn Valley and that the ice cream is not going to be heaven but cornettto again.

    • daydream on 25/07/2010 - 07:23

        The mystery item could still be one of those two??? Will just have to wait to find out.

    • Adamiam on 28/07/2010 - 01:41

      There is some confusion with this: A fake event was posted on facebook, listing the day as Friday. It is now falsely saying that dollar day is Wednesday.

      Thursday is the real day.

      I must admit those milks are awesome! I was saddened when I went back to find all the Wild Strawberry flavoured ones had run out in the evening after trying it for the first time in the morning.

  • cminez on 25/07/2010 - 01:43

    That's a good news.

    Last Thursday I met one drunk man who told me that's suck, don't buy it while I was holding 5 boxes of strawberry milk. I asked him is Heineken better than what I held. haha just a stupid jerk who does not realize which one is the best deal.

      i would say Thursday, since it was posted up by rep.
      http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/28650

      Also, when I post on that facebook page claiming it is a Wednesday, every time I've tried correcting it to say its the Thursday, it gets deleted. If it was a real rep, they would reply correcting my mistake if that was the case. Also other posts stating it is a Thursday is getting deleted on that page claiming it's a Wednesday.

      Looks like it. All comments correcting it to Thursday are getting deleted on that fake event page. Honestly, if it was a real rep, they should be replying to some comments to confirm the dates, not deleting the comments themselves.

  • daydream on 27/07/2010 - 21:40

    As I mentioned above, the 711 Facebook site is fake (As Asterism rightly questioned). The 7 Eleven one is the official one (http://www.facebook.com/pages/7-Eleven-Australia/13294599674…). I have confirmation from 7 Eleven head office that the day is this Thursday (29th) not Friday as the OP stated and also that the 711 Facebook site is a fake one.

  • [Deactivated] on 27/07/2010 - 22:41

    viper8548: If that page from '7/11 Australia' was in fact real, maybe that should be start by replying to some people's post to sort out the situation on what day it is. However, if you look carefully, any comments correcting it to Thursday have been deleted. The fake rep has not even bothered replying to these posts at all.
    Hence the event page for Wednesday is in fact a fake. The real event should be from '7 Eleven Australia' on Thursday 29th.

  • striker999 on 27/07/2010 - 23:06

  • pauly on 28/07/2010 - 03:55

    There seems to be a lot of confusion as to when the dollar day deal will become active as we have two conflicting posts here.

    I would suggest that everyone go by the deal posted by 7Eleven rep on OzBargain in the following deal post:

    http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/28650

    If you happen to drop by a 7-Eleven outlet tomorrow, Wednesday 28th, and the deal is active, feel free to update your fellow bargain hunters here (hopefully there's something left on the shelves).

    I'm updating the deal description to reflect this.

    Really pissed off, cause i had planned my arvo tea around a $1 goulburn valley flavoured milk. :(

      Yep it should be tomorrow. Just visit http://www.7eleven.com.au/ which now has info saying it is happening tomorrow. The problem stemmed for the fact there is a fake 7/11 representative on facebook causing this confusing in the first place by posting incorrect dates. Even when correct dates are posted by other people, they were deleting the comments.
