Register details to receive a digital coupon to redeem a free 250g block of Mainland Tasty Cheese ($5) at Woolworths by 16 Oct:
Once 10,000 gifts have been redeemed, a message will be included on the claim website specifying "Offer limit has been exceeded" (or similar). A person may be able to complete the claim form but will not be able to use their promotional barcode received to claim a gift in store, if at the time of redemption 10,000 gifts nationally have already been redeemed.
Did you just lol at your own username?
Yeap. Odd.
Deen brinking
Self checkout should work?
Just did it, easy as.
I think they were saying, it's better if you go through self checkout and if it doesn't work (eg. you are customer 10,001) it's easier to say you don't want it anymore.
My biggest fear!! I want it, but only if it's free! lol!
Do you pay the $5 and avoid embarrassment or do you say I don't want it anymore?
No - true Ozbargainer way.
You pay the $5, then return it later :)
No money and no pride/dignity lost :)
Then it's not worth the effort and time - easier if you just say no at the first place.
of course there is no embarrassment

the T&C's gave it away, I hope people wont miss out.
Cheeses Slice!
Got one! Ledge!
it is a generic bar code
Yea
I just go crackers over cheese!
Wallace?
Grommit?
But the barcodes are all the same.
Well done, why don´t you drive to the next one and pick up 2kg of Cheese? Greed.
Doesn't work that way.
Build a house using cheese!
The wife and I got ours via self checkout, no probs. Just FYI, if you're thinking about going for some at Menai, NSW, don't bother, they're all out. Checked with staff to see if there were any more but we got the last ones.
Does it work at metro stores?
Thanks but I reckon it'll be Ozbargained soon
Thanks… Just entered my 4 emails… should make through spring with the cheese.
Loves me some tasty, thanks OP
Sure you did
Managed to get 2 with my mate. Just FYI, its 1 per person and you have to scan the barcodes in separate transactions or it won't work.
None at my supermarket left :(
Thanks, I won't go to your supermarket now.
Westfield Liverpool have a dozen left. I picked 2 an hour ago
Great success thanks love them cheese
All gone at my local woolworths
Thanks for letting us know. That was helpful.
I dont have cheese addiction, but free is free. I can always put on extra weight
I fear for more man-made global climate changes with all this cheese about to be cut.
i printed the voucher out at home and did separate transactions for each pack. i got bored after the 4th pack. now in the freezer
Thanks OP
I prefer Edam .. the only cheese that is made, backwards.
Thanks, got 4 (!) at Woolworths Cumberland Park (SA). Just told the checkout chick to put them through individually. Cheese Expiry date April 2018.
What's a good recipe for this cheese?
Cut thin slices and put on bread, then eat.
If you want to get fancy, add sliced tomatoes.
This is what the average Ozbargainer is like to Mainland cheese right now…
I followed the steps and got the barcode whilst waiting at the checkout but it disappeared by the time I needed to pay! Devastated!
Quick go back! The barcodes are all the same
Got one, thanks OP!
I expect them to reach 10000 by the end of the day today
Already over 8000 clicks… Not going to get to Woolies until tomorrow and by then it will be too late :(
I am thinking redemption is based on redeemed email addresses rather than number of barcode scans.
I guess if we all just use the generic barcode uploaded, this might last longer.
It says above it goes on the first 10,000 scans nationwide.
To stop at 10,000 scans, mainland would need woolworths to monitor live usage in the supermarkets.
Not sure if this is the case.
@victorheaven: It's stated in the t&c's? Hopefully you are right though!
A person may be able to complete the claim form but will not be able to use their promotional barcode received to claim a gift in store, if at the time of redemption 10,000 gifts nationally have already been redeemed
Hmm, the definition of redemption is somewhat ambiguous.
Whether it is redeemed email addresses or redeemed vouchers.
Let's see what happens! :)
@victorheaven: I don't think it goes on email addresses.. Because you can still complete the form without necessarily getting cheese.
I mean when you click redeem at the link sent to you.
You will be assigned a reference number and 30 mins to use he voucher.
I'm thinking that number of different reference numbers is used to count the 10k.
My point was that if people just used the generic code posted by rewstar above…
Then their email addresses won't be seen as redeemed.
I could be wrong though.
It isn't only the whats left in the store, it's only the first 10000 in the country that gets them.
I'm just letting people know where they can still find them given that some stores are out of stock. Until someone says that they couldn't use the coupon here, this is still useful information.
thanks! also it was worth clicking "next post" 11 times
Got the last one. Thanks! :)
Out of stock at Macquarie center WWS, went to Hornsby WWS, got the last one, also ask the friendly staff check the warehouse, no one leave in Hornsby
Gotta go out and grab one before I can!
Just wondering if this only works on tasty cheese range?
Nope it doesn't work.
Local store is out of tasty too.
Box Hill, Vic all gone. Wow! Onto next Woolies!
To all the cows out there that helped make this cheese…… Thanks for the mammaries
Free steak on friday and now free cheese today, ozbargain you are winning.. :-)
Omg, what free steak :(
Barcodes do not scan at local Woolworths on two machines.
Manual entry of barcode number fails too.
End result.
No cheese and no cigar.

The generic barcode someone posted an image of didn't scan for me but the one I got through the email did. Just had some on some thin captain biscuits and a beer and tasted really good don't know if that is because it was free or not.
