    These targeted offers are quite common with Flybuys, the best one was spend $20/week for four weeks and receive $50.

        Means he must be spending around $10-15 per week. They want to entice him in and spend a bit more. Once you regularly spend $20 per week your offer will be something like spend $30 or $50 each week.

        Eventually you'll get to a point where it is $180 per week like mine was, but I've cut back on groceries that my offer this time is $130.

          My last one was 4x$50, and I did it, so now they've upped it to 4x$70, which I won't be able to meet.

          @kendo: This why you have several rewards cards. I have 10 in all my families names (including the 2 cats). I only ever spend about $15-30 a card then use the next one. Eventually some have forced me to increase this to about $60-75 but I've had a very good run with Coles & Woolworths. I am now cancelling cards and recreating them….

          Yeah they just keep pushing you to spend a bit more until you get annoyed and shop woolies for a few months.

      • nadan on 07/07/2017 - 09:59

        I don't do any shopping for groceries so that is why :) But only got that once though.

      Amount required depends on your usual spending habits. Give your details to fly buys and they know all this.

    • mathematicalcoffee on 07/07/2017 - 09:47

      Lucky you - I spend about $10 or less there and they always offer me the $50/week, which doesn't match my spending habits at all (as they should know, having a record of all my transactions)

    $60 on one card, haven't got the email yet for the other card. I alternate cards and values to try and get lower spend thresholds, seems to be working

  • maldo on 06/07/2017 - 17:31

    I got spend $160 a week for 4 weeks and get $100/20000FB points.

    I normally shop at Coles and spend above that amount each week so I'll make sure I qualify and it won't cost me any extra I suspect.

    • nightelves on 06/07/2017 - 17:35

      Wow if I spent that much per week I would spread that across 3 FBs card to get 30,000 points.

  • Employeehawkers8905 @ Coles on 06/07/2017 - 17:41

    Not targeted - at least in terms of the offer of $50 or 10,000 FB points.

    The amount of $$$ to spend each week is targeted, since mine says $130 per week.

    • xxau on 06/07/2017 - 21:10

    Just activated mine thanks. Maybe I should start reading the specials emails :-)

    • nightelves on 06/07/2017 - 18:10

      Yes you should either that or download the Coles app and all the offers are in there.

  • stargalaxy on 06/07/2017 - 17:45

    I get the same offer, I think they monitor your spending, if you are spending $100 weekly, you will be ask to spend a bit more to get the offer, i,e they wants you to spend more than you average weekly shopping bills.

    For me, I usually spend maybe $30-40 weekly with Coles and shops with Aldi and Woolies, so if they ask me to spend $100, then for sure I will not spend that much with them, unless it is a one week offer.

    • stargalaxy on 06/07/2017 - 18:38

      Last month I got the same offer and getting the same one again. I just make sure I get slightly above the $50 mark each week, I guess if you spend closer to $60, they will wants to set a higher target for you. I also shop with Aldi and Woolies and make sure I pay the woolies with Coles Mastercard so they knows I am shopping elsewhere as well, if they wants my business, the need to make it attractive. Pay cash at Aldi as they charge fee.

    • gm3stevens on 06/07/2017 - 18:40

      If you can spend $60 for 4 weeks this time, the next offer you get will be spend $70 for 4 weeks to get a $50 offer. That's how it works!

  • CloudJumper on 06/07/2017 - 18:42

    Wow would be great to get 50 ours is 170!!

  • jm48 on 06/07/2017 - 18:47

    I got this offer, but unfortunately have stopped getting the mail out newsletter with all the tearout coupons.

    • retiredfeline on 06/07/2017 - 23:27

      I think they've stopped doing those. Those were good in their own way as it was Mon to Sun so you had a choice of two catalogues to apply the coupon.

      My offer was $50 for 4 weeks to get $50. They can kiss my arse, no way I spend that much.

      • SternFern on 07/07/2017 - 12:36

        Apparently they have a set number they send out each quarter and the recipients are chosen randomly (this has come via asking their social media team via PM). I think that's BS though, as my partner used to get one every three months without fail, the first time I actually bothered to use any of the coupons (about half of the ones available) he never saw one again. So I think it's just another tactic to lure you into the stores.

        • retiredfeline on 07/07/2017 - 12:39

          I call it BS because I got them regularly from the time I joined Flybuys until recently. This was in addition to the emailed offers. I used to use the 500 points ones now and then to get $2.50 off. Maybe they are more selective now, or they have discontinued the practice to save on postage costs.

        • [Deactivated] on 07/07/2017 - 16:08

          @greenpossum:

          It's definitely not random. There is a certain formula they follow. I've seen too many patterns over the years for it just to be random.

          Last time they sent out coupons there was only a very small amount sent out and it was mainly to people who very rarely shopped at Coles.

          The last 4 week offer was also only sent to a small percentage of customers who hadn't used their cards very often or taken up 4 week offers in the recent past.

          This round of 4 week offers have been sent to most people who use the cards on a semi regular basis.

          The next round of coupons is due out soon and I have no idea whether they will increase the amount sent out. My theory is that they will go back to their regular pattern from the previous coupon promotions.

          My theory is that the recent limited 4 week promotion and the recent coupon promotion were reduced due to the fact that the financial year was about to finish and Coles/Flybuys only had a limited number of points left in their budget to give out before the end of the financial year. This lot of 4 week offers were sent after the new financial year started and they had plenty of points left in the budget pool.

        • retiredfeline on 07/07/2017 - 16:57

          @pointscrazy: I think they've given up on me. 😜

  • BugsBunnyAUS on 06/07/2017 - 19:00

    It says excludes gift cards, does anyone know if this is just the Coles/ColesMyer ones, or if it includes the retail gift cards (i.e. JB hifi, playstation, xbox, netflix, etc)?

    • benyboy on 06/07/2017 - 19:31

      In my terms and conditions i got, it says "$xxx spend transaction excludes purchases of all gift cards, iTunes cards, tobacco and tobacco related products."

      Never know maybe if you were going to buy a gift card you could give it a go it will show on the receipt if you qualified or not for that $xxx weekly spend.

      • BugsBunnyAUS on 06/07/2017 - 20:01

        Oh really? I've never used one of these deals before. I was gonna get a netflix card anyway so if it does say on the receipt, then I will give it a go.

        Loyal customers don't need to be (from their point of view), if you're already spending with them regularly then they're happy

        • frugal investigator on 07/07/2017 - 11:26

          Yes agree - the metrics they use are all wrong. They focus on adding new customers without focusing on securing their existing customer base from leaving (example with flumpf above).

          Good examples of keeping customers are all over the place - like Amex Offers or loyalty cards.

          An example coles could use: Give occasional secret discounts to items you regularly buy -maybe even just applied at the checkout as a surprise!

    If you use the flybuys card on a regular basis, choose the points. They get credited to the account a few days later and can be redeemed into flybuys dollars.

    If you don't use the relevant flybuys card very often, consider choosing the $50 off but make sure you make the next purchase within the timeframe before the credit expires. It says the credit will expire after 30 days

    If you use the flybuys card for small purchases only every so often, take the points, convert them to flybuys dollars and use this for the next few transactions.

    • jkcat on 07/07/2017 - 08:13
      +3

      Well I think you should be choosing points by all means -
      * flybuys dollars allows partial redemption, instead of binge shopping before the credit expires you can make small purchases over time.
      * flybuys dollars are accepted at multiple merchants where the $50 off is for Coles in-store only.
      * $50 off is treated as a discount and reduces your total spending. In case you get a docket offer/mail offer that requires a minimum spend, this $50 off won't count towards the spend.

      • headphonejack on 07/07/2017 - 08:22

        Agreed. Always choose points.

      • JIMB0 on 07/07/2017 - 16:06

        So if I activate this deal and use flybuys dollars to pay it won't be counted as a discount or savings, thus still being eligible for the points?

        • jkcat on 08/07/2017 - 07:37
          +1

          Yes. flybuys dollars is a form of payment.

        • JIMB0 on 20/07/2017 - 23:03

          @jkcat: Can you use flybuys dollars from another flybuys card?

          +1

          @JIMB0:

          Yes you can. It's up to you whether you want to do this. Some people don't want flybuys to track the transactions in case they crack down on households who have more than one flybuys account.

    • [Deactivated] on 07/07/2017 - 16:10

      My suggestion could be summarised by saying choose points most of the time but remember there are a few situations where the $50 cash discount can still be a useful choice.

    • boomramada on 07/07/2017 - 10:19

      Look like their algorithm is based on your weekly spend, I got $50 but still I don't think I ever spend more than $50 on one invoice consequently every week. I don't just stick to Coles.

    the margin in coles and most retail is around 40%.

    • [Deactivated] on 06/07/2017 - 23:16
      +1

      Always wondered about the margins…

      Where did you get your information?

      Sometimes I can stack multiple offers and end up with around 40% discount and I've always wondered whether Coles were making any money from the transaction.

      • raiseyoursteaks on 07/07/2017 - 19:36

        Know people in the retail industry. With regards to the promotion with Coles and Woolies, they have some kind of deal with vendors. Basically the chain may say, I will distribute 1000 crates but you need to provide 100 crates at 50% (or less) and thus we see all these 1/2 price every other week.

        So these range and assortments will rotate as to which promo gets listed on which week.

        • [Deactivated] on 07/07/2017 - 19:40

          Thanks for the insight.

    • aleayr on 13/07/2017 - 00:15

      The margin isn't that high. Sure, Woolies and Coles have high margins compared to other supermarket retails around the world, but that margin is closer to 5-7%, not 40% (and is trending down).
