is click frenzy every couple months now?
Click Frenzy 2017: Tuesday Nov 14 - 15, 2017 » All Comments
Every 6 months, May and November each year. I believe November is the bigger one.
- Click Frenzy in November
- Click Frenzy Mayhem in May
- Travel Frenzy in August
Catch and eBay are participating this year so it could get interesting.
Goodbye money…
Lol if I managed to get hold of something this cheap I would be more than happy to say goodbye to my money.
Looks interesting, how do people feel about click frenzy? It's my first time, i would like to know if its even possible to attain these crazy deals, hope they arent like catch's 50@8PM
Email received today:
Items from $1, this will be the biggest Click Frenzy yet and it's only days away
Conditions apply, stocks are limited and at these prices, we know these items will be sold quickly. The Go Wild treasure hunt will occur at various intervals between 7pm AEDT Tues Nov 14 and 7pm AEDT Wed Nov 15. Instructions will be forwarded via email.
Make sure you open your Click Frenzy emails during that period to get exclusive clues when the 99% off items will be on sale. Click quick! While stocks last.
See all the retailers on the main Click Frenzy website
does anyone bother with this anymore? a large quantity of mediocre discounts with a few very limited actual deals.
my thoughts exactly. 99% hype, 1% deals
1% deals is being generous
0.000000000000001% deals that are gone in the first 3 seconds!
Click Bait more like it. I wish I could block it from the feed
Cry me a wolf once, I will help you. Cry me a wolf twice, I will still help you, Cry me a wolf 3 times, I will do my best. Cry me a wolf 4 times, F*** you.
thank you - my thoughts exactly..shit being peddled from one discount site to another. so much crap with miniscule sales. why bother
ASOS will have 30% off
It feels like click Frenzy is black Fridays much poorer and uneducated inbred cousin
Is it worth waiting for Black Friday/Cyber Monday or will their deals be the same as here?
It depends on the store but generally for Australian retailers Click Frenzy will probably be as good as it gets, many don't participate in Black Friday/Cyber Monday and if they do you'd imagine it would be a lesser offer if anything.
Look at past deals for the store also to see if there is some trend in past Click Frenzy/Black Friday deals to see what they usually offer, if anything and how it compares.
I'm still new to clickfrenzy and subscribed when I saw it advertised on facebook. How exactly does it work? The prices on the posters look too good to be true
Basically it's a big sale event that a number of retailers participate in, offering some offer/discount as part of Click Frenzy. You can see the deals/stores that participate above or on the Click Frenzy website, there isn't any need to subscribe to Click Frenzy itself, it's just an email list.
However to gain subscribers, Click Frenzy themselves, via their website (unlike everything else which are sales offered directly by the retailer) have a number of low priced items like the $10 TVs etc. They will probably send out clues as to where to find these items on the actual Click Frenzy website, they are low in number and incredibly hard to get. Probably not something to worry about unless you have some free time as there will be 10000s of people trying to get these low priced items that there might only be 5 or 10 of. If you are interested you can subscribe to their email list and wait for details on the $10 tvs etc from 7pm and onwards.
For most of us Click Frenzy is just a day where a heap of retailers have sales, some good, some average, but on OzBargain the best deals get voted and it's also good to keep an eye out for stores/retailers you are personally interested in.
Is there any deal for guitar, amp, pedals and accessories?
Please let me know if you see oneCheers
So what should I buy? Don't need anything but its Frenzy time.
How to get in quick?? Is the payment through paypal?
For the 'Go Wild deals', ie $10 TVs, $2 Fitbits etc. last year it was PayPal or credit card. I think the general consensus is that PayPal was the quicker of the two.
Make an account at clickfrenzystore.com.au
Goes to said website and the store is currently not available so can't make an account… What a pro tip!
any stores selling genuine fragrances?
I reckon 10% off at Chemist Warehouse would be the way to go, they are already pretty reasonable for fragrance prices.
If you signup to the 2 month Shipster trial you'll also get free shipping from Chemist Warehouse.
doesnt chemist warehouse sell low graded fragrances? has anyone had any experiences between department store fragrances vs discount chemist fragrances?
How does that work? I mean it comes in the same box and everything. It'd be an issue for the brand if they were to provide 2 identical products but one was of a lesser quality.
@knk:
just hearing that discount chemists fragrances are different to department store ones, not sure if true or not but its gotten me thinking everytime I spend money on fragrances.
@sixpointnine:
Yeah I've heard that too, doesn't make any sense to me though lol.I've bought from chemist warehouse and….it smells normal? lol
Nope exact same. Department stores would lead you to believe that because all of their stock is overpriced.
Do we need to register or should I just wait on Ozbargain? lol
For the 'Go Wild deals' ie $10 TVs etc. you should register now to be safe, if you want to play that game :P Although likely someone will copy paste the clues here like last year, if they are following that same format.
Has anyone got the email for the treasure hunt yet? Curious to see if they've mixed it up or if it's the same as previous ones.
No email as yet, imagine it would be 7pm or close to it.
Click frenzy website is up and running now, showing all deals a bit earlier than 7PM
Apple 10.5 Inch iPad $10
Your instructions are:Be in the TV & Home Theatre category on Click Frenzy using any device between 8pm - 9pm AEDT Tuesday 14 Nov (tonight!).
Browse the deals there and keep your eye out for a banner that will appear some time within that 60 minute period. We’re not telling you when so you need to keep a good lookout.
When you see the banner, write down the DISCOUNT CODE and CLICK IT QUICK – you’ll be sent to our special Go Wild store where you can get the iPad for just $10. ONLY AFTER you apply the discount code. You MUST apply the discount code otherwise the charge is full price. We will refund anyone paying full price by mistake but you will not be able to claim the item.XBOX ONE S 500Gb $4
Your instructions are:Be in the Car & Bike category using any device between 9pm - 10pm AEDT Tuesday 14 Nov (tonight!).
Browse the deals there and keep your eye out for a banner that will appear some time within that 60 minute period. We’re not telling you when so you need to keep a good lookout.
When you see it, write down the DISCOUNT CODE and CLICK IT QUICK – you’ll be sent to our special Go Wild store where you can get the Xbox for just $4. ONLY AFTER you apply the discount code.
how do we get to the categorys on the website?
on the main page there are categories, hover over them and you will see them
TV & Home Theatre category - direct link for iPad 8pm
Car & Bike category - direct link for Xbox 9pm
So we hang out on this page to wait for the banner at the top to change. That's what it seems like to me.
The instructions say to "browse the deals", but when you do so, you end up on non-click-frezy pages (e..g, Sony's store with click frenzy deals) that have no banner at the top. Makes me think that browsing deals is a bad way to get the 99% off items.
@bk1973:
Yea who's done this before? Cause I have no idea what to look for when it changes. And the entire Hour is over if the about clues were true.https://www.clickfrenzystore.com.au/products/apple-10-5-inch… and its already gone.
Promo code was M1LO55@DEALMACHINE: Refresh the page until the ad shows (Actually have to turn off the adblocker since I think it comes up as a google ad or at least displays it there). In the image, there will be a coupon code, and then you click on the link and check out
@thefuzz:
yea was staying at top, than scrolled added it to cart went in, didnt realise you go through a few pages before adding the code. WEnt back n forth like a sperg..@chorong: do you have to keep refreshing the page or just keeping it open for the banner to appear???
Too slow as well :(
when is google mini?
Anyone else not get this email?
Mine went to junk mail, make sure you check there. I initially thought I didn't receive it either.
Hmmm nothing in Gmail spam - guess I'll just have to check here!
no emails for me
just got mine
No email for me either :( Wondering when and where google mini is.
Just got email too half an hour after it started
No email. Checked everywhere. I signed up days ago.
just got the email
Mine went under "promotions" in the gmail app. A bit annoying but oh well.
NEXT UP!
The next emails will bear clues for:
MYER Gift Cards $100 - $1
Google Home - $2
Fitbit Charge 2 Heart Rate - $2
DJI Spark Mini Drone Fly More Combo - White - $10
MYER Gift Cards $200 - $2
LG 55" UJ654T 4K Ultra HD LED LCD Smart TV - $10Look out for them later this evening and tomorrow.
what's next?
These things seem like a 1 in 10,000 chance or so (or at least, 1 in 1,000). Sounds like you have to carefully watch your screen for an hour just for a chance, and if you're quick enough, you can get one.
Perhaps if they have a great deal at 3am and most people are asleep, your odds go up! :)
Big W code not working, anyone else having same problem?
Same problem here. Hopefully will come good soon.
I believe it's working now.
Cheers, bought a Samsung galaxy tab :)
How do they get away with such bait advertising tactics?? because they aren't really a store?
Lenovo and dell are also doing a "click frenzy" type event. Lenovo used to be on click frenzy
anyone have any idea where the banner appears? in the top ad slot? or just on top of content? etc?
CAN ANYONE CONFIRM THE EMAILS?
I DIDNT SEE ANYTHING CHANGE FOR THE ENTIRE HOURREEEEEEEEEE
Lol it is sometime between 8-9pm the first one. Chill, it's been 9 minutes.
Lol very vague just "somewhere on the page" just keep refreshing and scrolling :)
From memory the banner appears at the top and it is pretty large. But, you might as well by a ticket for tonight's Lotto as this is nothing but a time wasting competition.
No this one was a tiny one at the bottom of the page. Sold out of course
Thanks for the update.
the hour is on now……
Great way to burn your battery life - keep on refreshing click frenzy page and Ozbargain for an hour.
Welp that was easy
Did you get one?
YES. Just a hint for everyone. Log-in or create your account at clickfrenzystore.com.au first so you'd have all the details sorted. Next thing you need to do is have paypal logged in in another tab so it'll skip the paypal login page.
Where do you log in?
Ipad just went that quick, WTF, no chance to get wow. Got to checkout stage
Same, had it in my checkout clicked confirm and it said sold out. Bummer!
What's iPad? how much was the deal?
iPad (2017) kind of like an iPad 5. It was $10.
Which's seller? How could you see the deal?
@Minh Dang: Refer to here, it was essentially just a small banner towards the bottom of the page you had to click.
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/5284708/redirCorrection to previous post: it was $2 not $10.
sold ouuuuut
Sold out
In the words of Cartman - screw you guys, I'm going home!
Got one
what did u get?
saw it, added to cart, was gone by the time i could checkout, usual click frenzy but at least i got a look lol
typed the promo code in wrong 5 times. lol
Forgot the code at checkout was using I instead of 1
I put in 0 instead of O!
Why can’t they just have simple codes lol like FRENZYARSE
Not where I expected it to be. And then I had to go back to get code which I forgot, so already screwed. And then I was looking for code button in cart etc. Yeah, that sucked.
What code are you guys referring to?
Gone within no longer than 30 seconds
Got all the way to paypal then sold out doh
same
Where was the banner. I had my browser set to automatically refresh every ten seconds and I didn't see any banner?
Was at bottom of page
Ah ok, I had a window to the side of the monitor with only the top of the page.
This is what it looked like for future reference:
Does it just appear or did you have to reload the page?
Refresh I believe.
What a crock of crap honestly
Scored one… .I made a typo.. wasted 4 seconds and still got it :D
Congrats man! Lucky!
I made a typo too, and also had to update my address. I spent around 30-40 seconds checking out easily so surprised I got it. Luck of the draw I think.
Did you write down your answer or just try to memorize it haha
where was the banner?
Thank you. I got one. 👀
Did you have to refresh or did it appear with you just sitting on the page?
Refresh.
Ugh typed in 0 (zero) instead of O :( Guys, for future reference, do we need to fill in our address field before or after putting in discount code and paypal details? I started filling in those fields right after discount code without having entered paypal - how are people so fast!! :O
Damn sold out already!
Lol I deviated for 3 mins and lost.Where was the banner? I didn't see anything. Been looking.
It was part way down the page, down the bottomish.
That's great. At least we know there was more than 1!
Does anyone know when the google assistant is?
would having adblock on stop the banner appearing, have disabled it to be safe.
Yes it did for me. Just turned my adblock off
Ah didn't think of that.
Where do you enter the promo code , i had one in my cart and got to the paypal page all logged in and didnt click proceed in paypal as i hadnt entered the code …
Don't use paypal checkout- use the ordinary one. It'll prompt you to enter promo code later
Do you mean with credit card? Rather than paypal?
Yes. It'll prompt you to enter promo code, then the option of paypal
Ohh :( thanks i was on it and in there with stock still available but got turned around .. thanks so much for the info i'll do better next time :)
i'll do better next time
That’s what everyone says for 24 hours, and then for next 6 months lol
The question is this where they will put the banner for now on hmmmm …. ?
In the "Pro Tips"
There will be one Go Wild sale item per household and items are not guaranteed as sold until your purchase is completed.
Does this mean, if we are lucky enough to get more then one item during the treasure hunt, Click Frenzy will essentially choose which one you get (if any) - or can you only order 1 of each item?
1 99% off item throughout the entire CF thing. In the past CF will cancel all orders if you bought more than 1.
do you know this for sure? I won two different gift cards last year and they were delivered.
Could you not theoretically send them to family members address', work etc???
got 1.perks of having a monitor in portrait
Limits of purchases are one item per household.
damn was gonna go for more haha. oh well. good luck to everyone else on the next deals
The iPad is a good score (probably tied for best with the 55" TV). Even if you don't need it, you can eBay or Gumtree it. I actually want the Xbox, so here's hoping for 9 - 10pm. Of course, if I don't get it, It'll probably be healthier to not have one and get off my bum.
Got the first email AFTER the iPad sold out…
Same :(
I have NOT received any emails yet!!
Lol it's all good, instructions are in this forum anyways..
Next one (Xbox) starts in 5 minutes - between 9 and 10pm.
Where is the website for entering the code supposed to be? (clickfrenzystore.com.au seems to be down atm)
Cheers - it's working now
According to their "Pro Tips", they say, "Further to this, as these banners will be appearing as a pop up banner, to ensure they are displaying, you will need to regularly refresh your webpage."
For those who got one, did you refresh often? Kind of hoping I won't have to. I assume by "pop up", they don't mean an actual new pop-up window.
Refreshing often is a must
Can anyone post here once the receive an email please?
Lol by the time they send an email it's long gone.
Starts now, in the Car & Bike category until 10pm.I got an email for the iPad at 8PM on the dot..
Got my email for the iPad and Xbox at 6:55pm if that means anything. Seems like I must be one of the start ones?
@bargainhunterrr17: I'll probably be in bed lol xD
You watch this one will be at like 9:50pm lol, so we are refreshing for 50 minutes not 15.
I recieved email, was just a little late, im sure everyone else has recieved it too
Who actually wants the xbox?
Depends how much I have to pay for it tbh ;)
$4
Lol I know that, I am saying that I wouldn't pay 100% of the price, but even though I don't really need it, I would gladly pay 1% of the price……
Me! Seriously. Am not going to sell it.
If I don't get close with this one, I give up. Too much work. Haha.
Have got two windows open, one with top banner showing, one with bottom. Refreshing going back and forth.
Mate I've got like 10 windows open for this…
Lol I've got Ozbargain and click frenzy and because my iPad is so old and has so little ram, it needs to reload every time I switch so automatic refreshing :)
I actually couldn't be bothered to do this on my laptop.
Can't believe I've just wasted 20 mins of my life refreshing a webpage haha@pennypincher98:
I think tonight is going to justify me buying a 3rd monitor. Got 4 things open on one and 2 on the other, but that amount again in the background switching between them all…
Wtf I got a promo code but it say's its SOLD OUT!?
Who wants to have a guess what time it will come up..I will say 9:37pm….
My guess still stands strong at around quarter to. Specifically? I'll go 9:42pm.
Dammit missed again! As soon as I said that
9.59
9:43
Lol 9:21 it was.
Just came up, clicked instantly, SOLD OUT!
F!!! Sold out
dammmmmit
Missed it
9:22pm - sold out in seconds…
9:21pm and sold out here. Thought I was onto something :(
Stuff this I'm going to sleep!
just got "sold out" when attempted to pay :(
Sold out within 30s…
F**************************
gone - in cart but missed
YAS! goodnight peeps and goodluck
Bugger - had it in the cart - banner was right down the bottom….
Wow that was fast!
Gone again, going to sleep :(
Got to the end. Hit PayPal to check out (was at $4 after discount). Then a wheel spun and then it said sold out. I'd like to think I was reasonably close. I got so excited to see the banner I forgot to remember the code!! Haha.
Spotted the xbox one, by the time I was done entering address it was sold out. Damn.
WOOHOOOOO!!!!!
i could not have done it any faster, those with fast connections will win everytime
Yep, I reacted extremely fast but by the time the page finished loading (took forever), it was sold out.
LMAOWUT
Any idea what the next item/sections are ?

Be in the Pets category using any device between 7am - 8am AEDT Wednesday 15 Nov.
CRAP Clicked on payment option and came up sold out
I was SO FAST this time! Even clicked banner immediately without reading code but somehow snapped up code in the fraction it took to redirect. Got error message "check your entries!" when pressing "complete order" and trying to log in to paypal (after adding code). Did anyone else? Don't understand what happened. Did I press wrong button or is that the message if it sold out?
EDIT: is paypal only option? I pressed "complete order" and it popped up paypal login. I didn't select paypal anywhere to my knowledge.
Oh my heart!
One extra mistaken refresh + typo in code = not even close!More like sold out within 10 seconds
Fun though :>got one! auto refresh really works!
Which browser? How to do it?
chrome. its a add-on extension thing.
Lucky you! Probably got the only one available!🤣
nah that'll be the TV i bet
Was in my cart, had details filled, soon as i click complete order i get the sold out message
I got one, yay! Best of luck to everyone for the rest of the flash sales!
Anyone got the 2nd email??

Oops already posted this in reply to another question. Oh well it's on page 2 and 3 now lol
wow just realised cant reply when I have view all comments selected :S
But yea I hope that there isnt any sneaky ones through the night!
For them to be that kind to let us sleep, how nice!
I'm a Queenslander and AEDT is so confusing! By the time I was on to the website, I already missed those set times already… this is really a game of chance!
if anyone sees anything travel related feel free to let me know. I'm after tsa locks, packing cubes etc that sort of thing
is the go wild store part of clickfrenzy site? Can i pre-register?
It's separate but you can pre-register your details so you're ready once the ads go live.
thanks
So with the terms and conditions where it said maximum one item per household, does that mean we can't go for other deals once we have either the xbox or ipad already?
Yup
What's stopping someone creating another account and using a different shipping address?
IP address? PayPal account?
I had a chrome addon refreshing the page every 2 seconds, caught the banner the moment it appeared and it was sold out in the couple of seconds it took to get to paypal.
No idea how people can do it faster then that but i guess they can.
keep ur paypal account logged in another tab, and the clickfrenzy store on another one..
Here we go again….good luck all…
gl to you
Is the banner always at the bottom?
Pretty sure, would be wise to look out for top and bottom tho.
just open 2 tabs
Pretty sure last year it was always (or mostly) bottom.
Anyone got the $2 fitbit?
Hasn't been on sale yet.
Oh. okay. I thought it was going to be the second one up? Thanks
time hasnt been announced yet for fitbit
STILL haven't got the 2nd email….

Dang that was an intense few seconds while the PayPal transaction processed! Here's the confirmation email for proof/interest:
Click Frenzy
ORDER #ARSE-1234
Congratulations - you have scored the bargain of a lifetime!
Hi SSX3, we are reviewing your order. As long as you have complied with our Click Frenzy Go Wild terms and conditions, your order will be approved and your item will be shipped. It will take up to 2 weeks to dispatch, and delivered with plenty of time before Christmas. We will notify you when it has been sent.
Damn it mistyped the code lol
Bugger I had it but my pop up blocker stuffed it!
Gone
Is it getting faster or just me getting slower?
It's insanely fast, i had paypal and everything ready to go, didn't have to type anything except the code and the 2 sec code mistype cost me.
myer one is gone…
nearly had it!!
If all goes well, just got it after missing out on the other ones! :)
AGAIN>>>>had it in cart…..then sold out….
GOT ONE!!
was too slow typing address :(
Lol I blinked and it was gone.
Well, see you all in the morning! :)
Missed out by like a second. Paypal was processing payment and then it said out of stock.
SAME HERE
God dam I swear people have bots and scripts set up to snag them
Yes I agree. Isn't that why they have codes now, previous years they didn't.
Argh missed again :( Is there another gift card on offer for this competition?
Yes another Myer one but $200
is it listed where all the hourly deals are?
I don't think there is anymore tonight, starts again at 7AM AEDT (going off the e-mails sent out).
I haven't even seen the banner. Do you think its selective now?
I thought that last year too as I didn't see them then.
It's been down the bottom of the page, just above the footer all 3 times. Were you looking down there? Also, if you have an ad blocker on, you won't see it.
try turning off your ad block
So i wonder what bots they are using to snag these items ?
I didn't use a bot and was able to get the Xbox. I have NBN, used a desktop PC (I doubt you would ever be successful using a phone/tablet). I was already logged into paypal and had my address added to the Click Frenzy store account. You just have to refresh every second and as soon as the banner is up memorise the code, click on the banner, click "checkout" (do NOT click on paypal), add the code to the promo spot and click confirm.
Same. Logged into PayPal, used a desktop computer. I did not have a Click Frenzy store account, but I have a WPM of 130. For internet, I have cable instead of NBN though haha.
sounds like there were more xbox in stock than the ipad or the voucher
I didn't use BOT either. I actually got 404 error on first try; had to refresh page twice to get new link. I think some people are getting link before others because by the time I got link for XBOX, people already started posting their experience.
I had refreshed the page , clicked the banner . Got 404 , clicked banner again got 404 , clicked again added to cart ( accidentally added 2 in my haste) added the promo code , when to pay and PayPal popped up then auto closed and sold out :(
Does anyone know if you can get two different deals on the same account? I got the Xbox and the Myer gift card but just got an email for the Myer gift card after the congratulations one saying "Your order has been cancelled order #xxx-xxx was canceled due to unforeseen circumstances and your payment has been refunded."
Had same email. Not sure
There will be one Go Wild sale item per household and items are not guaranteed as sold until your purchase is completed.
From here: https://www.clickfrenzy.com.au/pro-tips.html
That'd explain it, cheers crs.
Last year they cancelled ALL orders if you won more than one. Hopefully you didn't lose your Xbox.
Ouch, hope I still get the Xbox! first time I've gotten anything from Click Frenzy.
I won four items last year and they all turned up in the mail…
How do you do it man? What's your secret recipe? I have tried for the past 2 years and haven't won anything!
@18: Zooming out on the category page as far as you can helped last year, however because you need the promo code this year it's best to just scroll down to the bottom of each page and keep refreshing until the ad appears
It doesn't seem like the ads are going to appear anywhere else on the category pages this year based on the deals released yesterday so I think it's a pretty safe strategy!
Not sure why I got negged, just stating what happened. If anyone don't believe me, they can read for themselves in the old thread.
Like I said above, I received four items in the mail last year without any issues. The issue last year was to do with accusations of "fraud", not multiple wins.
@HoteDoge:
Yes. And if you were involved you'd know that the fraud accusations was purely based on winning more than 1 item on the same account. They had no other "proof" or justification. Can't explain how you got all of yours (unless you had multiple accounts), but many others didn't.@fruxo: I actually only had one account and I can prove that I received every item I won so you’re wrong there.
As for the fraud accusations their main deciding factor for determining whether an order was “fraudulent” or not (they weren’t actually fraudulent, but that’s another discussion…) was actually the purchase date/time compared to the date/time each ad was published on the Click Frenzy site linking to each product. If the purchase time was earlier than the ad reveal time they assumed that those customers had used other means to access the product pages (such as Shopify’s default Collections view).
Spreading false information when you’re just guessing and don’t actually have any facts/evidence to back up your statements doesn’t help anyone.
@HoteDoge:
I followed this drama closely and I'm hardly guessing. Call it a strong correlation. But clearly there is no proof either way that anyone outside of the click frenzy crew can provide.But besides the countless people getting orders cancelled when winning more than one on the same account, I heard no one that lost items when winning multiple items across different accounts. I also heard nothing of anyone losing their price if they used the store page "cheat", but only won 1 item per account (and I know multiple such people IRL).
And when orders got cancelled, it was always every item you've won.
Clearly there must have been some exceptions for winning multiple prizes, but yours is the first I've heard of.
Unfortunately fruxo, they've cancelled my Xbox today so I've lost everything. Won't bother using Click Frenzy again.
thanks for that, guess theres no point trying for any of the other products.
I thought people did so for fun…..
Those fleeting moments of blind panic, and then the disappointment…
Just think of all the fun we will have next year!
Click Bait Frenzy
Is it too late now? Lol… I've been refreshing for the last 20 mins.
Hahahaha you crack me up xD
Lol it was gone 41 minutes before you posted :DNext one is Google home for $2 6 minutes away - be in Pets.
Biggest waste of time - this is a typical example of a once great idea turned into a massive rip off and way for stores to get rid of most of there unwanted excess stock
Merged from Clickfrenzy or Clickbait??
So did anyone find any real deals during the clickbait frenzy?
Tell us what great deal you found (if any)
$9 door bell and 2 sensors
Only good deal to come from it
Click Fail.
Fail as every time
Well that depends on who you talk to.
Definitely click bait for me, but if I managed to snag something I certainly wouldn't be complaining ;)The "deals" that are being advertised aren't awesome however.
I bought a pair of Nike's last week, with TA's increased cashrewards at 7%.
Noticed yesterday Nike had 20% off, and 5% cashrewards. Was bummed, approx loss $40, but hey that's life eh…
Attempted to get the $4 Xbox, turns out the special banner I was supposed to look at was one halfway down the page instead of up the top and missed it, kind of wasted like 18 minutes just constantly refreshing, but was watching a movie at the time so it wasn't too bad.
Honestly felt more like a "competition" then a deal. Didn't see much else that was any good of a deal (besides the ones similar to the xbox deal). Overall wasted 20 minutes on it and felt dorky refreshing the page constantly. I think the mix of me not getting anything, plus the fact that I work now so have a steady income that I don't really /need/ a deal to buy something makes me more salty over it then anything.
Well I did manage to grab an ipad, waiting on it to be approved, so hopefully they don't cancel on me.
Nice !!
Got a pair of sunnies for 50% off plus 10% CR + $25 Amex Cashback.
🤘
For me it's more about the store sales, got a good deal with Optus and ASOS so I'm happy.
I'm not really sure what this Click Frenzy thing is all about other than being a "wrapper" for a bunch of stores deciding to have sales at the same time.
It strikes me that this is nothing more than the Boxing Day sales (just of lesser quality) … a lucky few happen to get the real bargains, there are some decent general discounts offered by a small number of retailers and the old stock no one is buying anyway gets wheeled out for cheap, but still doesn't move.
I think if you take it for what it is … another slot in the calendar when retailers look to put on sales … then it's probably fair enough. If you expect a deal "frenzy", you'll be disappointed.
Cool… Got a Google Home.
same =)
Same =)
Finally Got Something out of this frenzy. Not sure how much I will use it though.
I was logged in on both the site and Paypal and missed out again on the Google Home on processing. Pretty sure this is basically impossible.
and the google home thing is gone
NOOOOOOO it was so early!!! I hadn't set up yet :(
I hate 21ELGOOG lol
What did 21ELGOOG do to you to deserve to be hated?
Considering the code was 22ELGOOG
Lol actually??
Shows how good my memory is in the morning without coffee…
I got a DNS Error trying to get the Google Home.
Gone in 2 mins. Added to cart, went to checkout & boom, gone. When's the next one?
not released yet
I thought I had a chance if it was early this morning. Zero chance now.
Well to be fair, 2 mins is a lot longer than 15 or so seconds.
Here's a tip - if you have anything in life to do, do it because the chances you'll get one are basically zilch.
I got one! First time ever.
Good luck to everyone else of the others.
P.s - I didn’t do anything special, I did however have Paypal and clickfrenzy store logged in on the other tabs for a faster process.Thats all I did aswell.
Anyone else getting "This site can’t be reached www.clickfrenzystore.com.au’s server DNS address could not be found."??
Me!
Not me!
Click on this link: https://www.clickfrenzystore.com.au/
It seems it doesn't work just typing in to the address bar..
Anybody recieved email for next click frenzy items?
No not yet
Still nothing. It would be nice to get the email BEFORE the item is sold out, for a change.
Right?! I have only received one email and it arrived in my inbox after the hour for the first deal on it had passed.
You can see all the emails here
https://us5.campaign-archive.com/home/?u=f5367aef585d7af51ca…Also does someone know what to do if in the rush I typed my address wrong??
Sweet, thank you!
Depends how wrong you typed it.
I can get mail if the address is got a few typos, but it will most likely be at your local post office as undelivered if you typed your postcode correctly.I missed the whole street name. I thought it was filled in but it wasnt so I just have the street number and then the suburb. Hopefully I can email them and fix it. I dont know if theres anything else I can do.
Worst case scenario it will probably be delivered to the post office nearest that suburb.
Email them as soon as you can, they might want to send it in today's post.
I got my address wrong last year - if you give them a call/email they should be able to update it for you.
Thanks for this
I don't even know how to log in to the website lol.
Is that site legit? Looks dodgy as.
Probably is now I look at it, just looks like it was made for a year 9 IT project
Most likely yes to all three :D
it's legit, but looks dodgy. And probably was made for a year 9 IT project hahaIt's just a bare bones Shopify shop, not sure why they didn't put more effort into customising it.
@mattythecapybara: Who knows, but like they even forgot to change the "Privacy Policy" webpage from 'test' which is why I thought it was dodgy at first
clock ticks
So close yet so far :(
Everything at a stand still this morning. NetRegistry is having DNS issues and the CF Store site is not working. No ETA on when it will be sorted but most likely after 10AM.
Netregistry DNS and CF store is back up now
anyone know any good sellers for new era baseball caps?
Unusual that we haven't got an email yet.
i didnt even know this was on, untill i saw it on the news….
hrmm, are there any deals? can they be more obvious and someone list this?
cheers
So When is new "Go Wild Deal" coming? No Email or info here yet.
My flat mate is trying to win stuff today. Only thing is I already won something last night. Given the whole rule about 1 item per household is he allowed to win something else if he has his own account? I am worried they will cancel both our orders… I am thinking if he uses a different shipping address and his own paypal could be ok..
A different address should be fine, no way they can tell.
They will cancel one or the other.
How would they know though?
By your address - prior to sending out items they check for two orders from the same address. If they see this, they'll cancel one order.
Yea but I am saying what if he uses a different shipping address e.g his parents
Ok thanks, will let him know he can try
Probably ok, but we don't really know what they check for sure. Since they specifically said "per household" and not per person, they might check ip. Unlikely, but possible.
How does it work if you won something last year?
I was thinking the same thing. I can see my old order in the history of my account. If they just check for ANY order by the same address, then it will get cancelled.
Logically they would just check this year, but from what we've seen earlier, they are not always very reasonable and they are definitely not very flexible or interested in any sort of discussion.
So where is the new email i have not received anything since last night ! Any new ones gone out ?
https://us5.campaign-archive.com/home/?u=f5367aef585d7af51ca…
You can check with this link, and to answer your question there has been no new emails yet :(
So they are flooding their FB page with offers to push the Go Wild posts further down by the looks of it. Wouldn't be surprised if they have pulled the pin.
https://www.facebook.com/clickfrenzy/
Notice how the post frequency has increased dramatically?
Why are people negative voting this?
because you are a D****D.
Just had a look at some of these "deals" and they the same carp as when new financial year begins with BS markdowns.
Not worth it, it's a gimmick like DFO and the others.

Seems interesting, so will there be the $200 myer gift card + LG 55" TV at 6-7PM since click frenzy will end at that time
Do you think their "big" prize is the 55"? Last couple times they had the 70" as the final prize
who knows, might be a surprise item coming, or else it seems like the 55" one will be the final
@pennypincher98: oooooo that will be very interesting, maybe no time, and no specific page, only the lucky ones will see it
@PattyDaPanda: Lol so instead of potentially wasting an hour refreshing you could potentially be wasting a lot more? The business side of me approves of this idea, but he doesn't think about his customers..
@pennypincher98: agreed, probably shouldnt be hunted, more like a lottery win haha. People would probably hate that idea.
5pm-6pm…so do I choose to stay at work for 1 hour, or go home early so I'm not in the car when the deal drops? hmmmmmmm…
Screw the fitbit i want the drone or TV
I'm calling fake on those as well. No email sent nor on the email link from above.
Also crazynic calls it a DJI Spark Mini Drone when the previous emails all describe it as DJI Spark Mini Drone Fly More Combo - White.
Dude why would I 'fake' it?
Can someone please show me how to append screenshot to comments?
add a link, to a imgur
Just upload it to imgur and share the link here.
Edit: beaten.
Fair enough but someone faked one like an hour ago.
Thats really weird though, it doesnt show on the website for past issues though. But yours is legit :)
ive noticed that the past issues dont really get updated straight away…ive been getting the emails about 10 minutes into each deal and after that i notice them in the past issues section
5 minutes to go until the fitbit, i wish the best of luck for everyone trying to win :)
Nothing so far…. keep refreshing….
Must.. keep.. going..
where will banner appear?
Most likely at the bottom
anyone got it yet? whats the code pls
no codes appeared yet. and once appeared you have to click on CLICK Here
by the time someone posts the code, it's sold out.
Man, this is so intense lol.
haha. I don't really want the fitbit, but would use it. I just figure this could be the easiest chance left. The ones later today will have more competition. I wasn't up early enough for the 7-8am one this morning, which I figure had less people fighting for it.
Definitely better chance with this one. I'm one not interested in it either. lol
it will be more around 6-7 PM for TV
i think they only have 1 item on 99% deal & get 1000s of user traffic just because of 1 item
That's why its called ClickBait….
I wonder how effective it is though. Constantly refreshing a category I have no interest in isn't making me want to buy anything. Plus, I'm so focused on looking for the freebee that I can't look at anything else.
It's about raising the profile of Click Frenzy. Look how much free advertising they are getting from the posts on various websites. Then they'll advertise how many hits their website got to retailers, etc. Marketing spin.
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
He needs to use Fitbit to get Fit.
the code is: fr3nzy22
GOT A FITBIT! Maybe its time for me to get fit!
me too!
Good on you. beaten by 5 sec
All gone…
Had it im my cart :'(
Sold out :(
SOLD OUT
I was at paypal processing! grrr
same me.
Smashed It! Yes, Can't believe I got something
How many do they sell at that low price?
Gone!
missed out the link took me to some camping page.
Paypal was processing then the 2 words an OzBargainer never wants to see….SOLD OUT
Same here :(
Aw, too slow.
My colleague ALMOST got it, but there is no way to pay using a credit card?! Only through PayPal??
Can you pre-login your paypal to another window to avoid it asking to login once checking out?
Yes you can. Didn't help me though
You can activate paypal one touch to automatically sign you in and pay.
how can you active paypal one touch? is it just buy logging in from a different window?
Argh missed the fitbit as well! :( This time on Paypal processing. Have the $200 myer cards been put out yet? or the clue for them?
Not yet, missing myer $200 and TV
Not yet, "Look out for it this afternoon"
$200 will probs be 6-7 with the TV being the final deal at 7pm
Finally got one.
Me too. Definitely pays to have the store and paypal signed in before hand. and keep cicking around your paypal account to stop it timing out.
Darn! In cart. Sold out. At least I saw the banner, that's an effort in itself. Can someone tell me at which point you put in the code, before or after PayPal?
From what other say, code BEFORE. Then afterwards, click on PayPal to pay. Got to that point with the Xbox last night, then sold out.
Hmmm. I didn't see option for code before so i clicked on PayPal, then it said sold out. Always concerned about missing those code input areas when buying online and end up paying full price :) Thank you.
Don't click on paypal. You need to click on "Checkout". Then on the top right hand side you will have the option to put the code under "promo code".
You input the code once you click "checkout." It will prompt you to input the code and confirm shipping details. Do not click the PayPal button immediately after adding it to the cart.
Thank you. Very helpful!
After entering shipping address, there was a button labelled "Continue to payment method". To the right of that was a summary of my cart's contents (showing full price) and a text box where I was able to enter the code, hit "Apply" and change the price to $2.
So the correct order would be to enter the code, press "Apply", then "Continue to payment method", which leads to PayPal.
Looking forward to purchasing brand new FitBits and Google Homes off ebay in a weeks time from Personal sellers.
I don't think they had much stock of any of the promo offers otherwise they would have heavily promoted that aspect
Same here had in cart, but sold out before i could do anything.
There was no option to add promo code on that page
There is, it comes after you press continue in your cart,
Shit.. So there were actually multiple products that people could win??! I though there would only be like one product for each code that would appear and so only one winner! dammit! I didn't even bother because of that assumption :(
There's still 3 more items you can get! Don't give up!
At work.. the frenzy will be over by the time i get home :(
Damn, that's unfortunate, maybe next year :(
i'll stay longer today
Not sure if glitched… but I can still add fitbit to cart?
Never mind.. my browser was glitched I think
So can I, but it ends up saying sold out
Already recieved a phone call from a marketing company where the voicemail message was a lady who spoke dribble about her dog having a big mouth. When I called the number back I was told to call another number and leave a message.
Just got the last email, the period says 60 minutes which is a little odd, but hey… Everyone makes mistakes.

what website is this?
Click frenzy
You are about as likely to win a lottery as get this to work. However, have fun trying.
I like how inconsistent they are with emailing.
Question for those who have got through or almost have won the Go Wild items. Does it take you to the actual seller site (ie. Fitbit website) or is it a special Click Frenzy site?
Special Frenzy site
Here we go again for Drone.
any news yet?
nothing yet.
half way mark. Keep pushing boissss
another 5-10 min
30MINS AND STILL NOTHING
f5 button broke
lmao
Use auto-refresh extension then
Control-R on Windows or CMD-R on mac
Time spent posting here is f5 time wasted haha
another 2-3 min. then i am out.. need to rush for Pee….
rookie mistake….. OzB hardcore would already have had a colostomy bag put on
For sure….nervousness kicked in…
Or use empty bottle of water and keep it sideby..
48min , I guess
what time was last one?
33 min
around 1:37
watch it be 5:59
SOLD OUT!
Sold out
all over already
GONE!
Wasn't showing me anywhere to put the code in.
It did with the xbox last night too. No idea why.
got to go to normal checkout and input on the right side ( dont click paypal checkout)
Well that was a waste… I was prepared and super quick too.
got put into a line
What?! I had my browser on refresh every 2 seconds got it when it immediately showed and it was already sold out… Something seems amiss.
Yeah, definitely rigged because you didn't win out of thousands of people
My point is didn't even make it to the cart, I clicked it the second it appeared unless there is some sort of benefit of being closer to the hosting location.
wtf sold out within seconds
yeah, I give up. do everything right this time and still couldnt get it
congrats to the winners!
Winners? My guess is there was only 1
Clicked the wrong button during checkout, total rookie mistake lol
That was too quick
Did anyone here get one? that felt so quick, Sold out as it was processing :(
I managed to snag it! Stoked!
paypal :( , i had it in my cart , applied code , click pay , then had to scroll down to click pay now in paypal even though i had that 1 click payment on
Exact same thing happened to me then it froze up and re-loaded with sold out. Devastated!
I got back to the cart after clicking pay and it showed sold out
Yeah wtf, I was through paypal, back to the cart then it just changes to sold out.
FLYWITHM3 the only thing flying away is my chances of getting any prize :'(
i had payment processing in paypal, then sold out. booooo
nothing
may your dronies be full of closed eyes and doublie chins you lucky bastards
Can't get pass paypal every time. doh
Needed to turn on One Touch and have money in your account (instead of credit card or bank debit).
Thanks for taking the time to advise. Will remember that for next time.
I got the dreaded "Due to high traffic, you’ll need to wait a few minutes. When it’s your turn, checkout will load automatically.
Don’t refresh the page or you’ll lose your spot."which last about 4 seconds. That 4 seconds was like the longest wait of my life.
yup, that was me… and the (profanity) line "loading " graphic they got going on…. I already admitted defeat at that point
i didnt even see the damn banner or whatever its supposed to be…poo
The professionals are at it again!
WHere exactly is the banner located is it the one on the top of the page or is it within the page? I kept refreshing and the ad banner at the top was the same, didnt check the rest of the page tho
Near the bottom of the page
Oh well no wonder!!
The banner is still there now near the bottom https://www.clickfrenzy.com.au/food-wine-liquor/beer-liquor.… if you wanted to see what it looks like for next time.
FINALLY!!! Been on the site for 50 straight minutes spamming F5 and was able to luckily snag one.
Good luck to the rest of you guys I'm out for the rest of the competition.Congrats to all you winners :) Truely happy for you
Spammed it too much and they gave me the message:
"This page is temporarily unavailable because a device from your location is sending large amounts of web requests. Visitors from other locations can still view the page."
hahaha yeah we are all DDOS'ing the site
2 more chances. Don't give up!
So I just won a drone, however almost instantly I received a Cancellation Notification…
I won a Fitbit earlier so I am guessing that is why they have cancelled my order.
I completely understand and actually agree with the "one item per household" condition, however they seem to be deciding themselves which prize you receive (and based on my experience going for the much cheaper option for them) if you win more than one rather than allowing you to choose, which is incredibly disappointing.
Has anyone else experienced the same this year? At the very least they should allow those of us who have been lucky to score two prizes to choose which one we would prefer.
I'd say that you should be happy you got 'lucky' even though I can understand your point haha
Also, just create a new account in your parents or a friends name.
They could just cancel any future orders made by a user so they don't get more than 1. Instead of choosing one for themselves
anyone else find themselves refreshing random pages reflexively?
So what's the next one?
Ah the TV. In 15 mins.
got to PayPal and then out of stock :(
Same here :(
Same :(
I was so close too :(
Same :(
What a scam. Why the F did it need my addresss? I already had it in there? Got all the way till the end. Clicked on pay within PayPal and everything. Then said no inventory left.
It seems different than it was last night with the Xbox. Not sure what changed for me. Doing the exact same thing. Doing normal checking out (not doing PayPal first as other have said).
I got one … woohoo
lol, never seen paypal take so long to load in my life
pretty sure that 10 seconds cost me the card, oh well
Congrats to anyone who managed to snag oneI won the $200 myer! Incredible. I clicked reflexively and didn't check code, so I had to go back to other tab to get code and STILL made it. Crazy.
EDIT: paypal took ages to load as well so I don't know what happened.
Someone mentioned that once you click checkout, it holds the stock for you for like 5 minutes.
Doubt that as it's very easy to get to checkout, it's the payment step that usually fails.
Maybe it gets assigned once you click?
Missed again. Rookie mistake. Had fitbit still in cart so had to remove it. And baby on lap kicking my hands lol.
Same (minus the baby). Took me a few seconds to figure out how to remove it, lol.
Lol. Still the tv. But not only do i have the baby but someone coming over to fix things now. Oh well, next year. Good luck to you.
Finally got one…after 2 years of trying. FML
U deserved it!
I clicked it and it said processing but before it gets to paypal, already sold out… ggggrrrrrrr…..
Yew got one.
I had the long PayPal loading too. I have 3 windows open, each doing auto-refresh about 1.5 seconds apart from each other. Maybe I'll move to 4 for the TV. Haha
Now that I think about it…. all the auto reloads could be a small part of the problem when trying to check out quickly. Hmmmm.
Interesting
Careful loading too many times as it'll block you for a minute or 2
Haven't had that, and I'm reloading 3 times every 5 seconds and been doing that without any issues. Thing is, when I do see the code in one window and click to open a new window to check out, the three windows still auto refresh. Those auto-reloads could cause just the slightest delay in my trying to check out, and hence the advantage of faster refreshes could be hurting my checkout time.
Not to be rude but if you can't reload the page every 1.5 seconds in a single window you probably won't have much luck
but I can watch a TV show in a small window in the corner of the screen. :-) I don't watch it very closely, but listen to everything. Passes the time.
Easiest ways to ensure you have an edge above everyone
- make sure you’re logged into the click frenzy store and have saved your address
- Make sure you’re logged into PayPal and have one touch enabled
IMPORTANT TIP
- make sure your page looks like this:
PAGEThis trick simplifies everything and you’ll notice the change immediately as the ad appears at the bottom. You could’ve even get rid of all the other ones and have nothing on the page until the deal pops up.
Rest is up to your clicking speed and reaction time.
GOOD LUCK!
How do you log in to click frenzy site? I don't see a button or login page anywhere?
Thanks guys
How do you make your page look like that?
How do you do this?

Shout out to all my manual refresh homies
Merged from Click Frenzy Dishonor Fee
Hi,
This might be late to post this. Hopefully someone can help.if I were to try and get the last deal (the tv), and I miss out which is most likely, but if I get charged which some people seem to be will my bank charge a dishonour fee? (ANZ is $35).
I know I can get a refund if I am charged, but knowing the real price of the tv would be in the thousands, money that I don't have n my account, I'm guessig my account would go over, which I'm guessing would leave me with a dishonour fee to pay?
Yes, of course. The bank doesn't care whether it's click frenzy or not (despite what Gerry or ACA may say :) ).
So really, I shouldn't really bother going for it, because it'll just leave me with -$35
You've established that you don't have the money… So yeah, don't do it?
gone
At what time is everyone refreshing?? when the seconds tick over the 00 mark and starts at 59??
Only when the seconds hit one of the following: 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 00
final one may be 47 min. guess
If it comes up, and I put the voucher in, and its at $10, like its meant to be. (Paypal says $10 too. Is there a chance of me getting charged the couple thousand dollars original price?) or will the coupon still be valid and only $10 will be charged?
You will get charged whatever you shown on the checkout screen ($10) or the order won't go through. You won't get charged full price.
I also read in the terms that if you pay full price by mistake, they are happy to refund the amount but you will not be getting item as that meant you did not put in code properly like everyone else.
Yes at the bottom. It will pop up randomly! Just keep refreshing the page! Goodluck :)
Yup! Right place :) at the bottom of the page (with the ifrst choice liquor ad) Best of luck :)
Was in quick. Paypal slow. Oh well
Sold out, i give up, couldn't of done it any faster lol
done and done
its gone…
SLOWLIFE666
and thats that.
Gonski
OMFG!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn that's quick
GONE!
OMG GOT IT!
Congrats
congrats!
you think only people on ozbargain get these kind of deals?
Gone!
Haha… :(
sold out already! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
TV Sold out!
GG missed the last 5 in the code, probably cost me
When I saw that triple 5, I knew plenty of people would get tripped up (most of the other codes had only double digits)
DAMN
Congratulations to everyone who scored. I am happy as long as it was all won within the Ozbargain community :)I'm sad now
Me 2 :(
Didnt even know click frenzy was on
I was logged in to paypal and still got the securely logging you in after hitting complete order.
Yep. Same. It's messed up.
Load of crap
WOW does it mean there was more than 1?
wait, am i reading it right. it says 65 inch on the page.
OH wow thats a fair few!
Do you think there was 75?
No way they had $180,000 worth of TV's to give away.
Sounds like a lot. I can't read code so …..?
edit:
doesnt mean you secured it if you got it as i highly doubt they have 75 tvs, so they're probably going to do a random raffle based on the first 75 orders or something.just a guess
Maybe they want you to think that! lol They would have to look it up on the server end rather than have it coded/seen on the browser end otherwise people would hack it
They're a Shopify store so they don't have control of the software and AFAIK can't fake data - if it says 75 the store probably accepted 75 orders. Of course whether they can fulfil 75 TVs is another matter.
it might be real data (ie. in the browser code) but as to what it is actually used for, who knows.
There's no way they had 75 TVs.
I think they set it to 75 (or a random high number) in case someone checked it out without the promotion code and paid the full amount (by accident or not). But the promotion code could only be used once.
Now time to go chill out with some quality chill music and bring my heart rate back down from where it got to when I thought I had got a TV in time.
There is no way there was 75
Paypal seems to be the bottleneck. Was really slow again as others report. I have the one-touch thing enabled as well (am sure the rest of you do too), so I don't have to log in or anything. Just kept spinning.
Was the first to post that I didn't get it above, so perhaps I wasn't too far off from getting one. Haha. Have a good one everyone. The manual refreshing is hell on the hand, but I think it's a better play than several auto-refresh windows.
macro on mouse, tip for the future.
same. Paypal login took roughy 5-8 seconds to do it's thing. That 5 seconds is crucial for checkout.
What browser did people use? I was using 64-bit cyberfox. Maybe Chrome is faster…
I used Chrome. Usually use Safari, but Chrome seems faster.
Note that there are ways to "hack" this without having to play fairly, and I suspect that some may have done this (not accusing the people here). One could scan the html source code for changes and/or a link to the click frenzy store, and then use that to open both the store window and the banner automatically.
If you know what you're doing, it's doable.
Your Internet speed is a bigger factor than your computer/browser.
50mbit fiber to the home here :)
Now bring on Ebay's OMG-Amazon-Launched megasale!
Man, I'm late to the party… work got in the way :(
What have I missed? Everything?!
you missed the opportunity to waste an hour of your life
God damn. Got to the final stage of PayPal checkout, clicked "Pay Now", circle kept spinning and gone :(
Congratulations to everyone who got something though!
That stupid paypal spinning circle is gonna haunt our dreams.
Hahaha, yep!
Thought I had a chance then.
Managed to log into Paypal and was able to hit the final pay button.
It had a think for about 5 seconds then spat me out.I saved time (and effectively money) by not bothering with the test-your-reflexes and internet connection competition that is Click Frenzy!
They did live up to their name and got people to click lots and cause a frenzy. As to real savings compared to other sales during the year well…Wtf I refreshed and watched for whole 30 minutes and I never even saw it.
Do you have adblock or do not track enabled? And are you looking at the bottom of the right section?
I was looking everywhere. Don't tell me adblock stopped it ffs
You need to turn adblock off, bad luck mate
Still had window open and realising now it says 65 inch for $1. Was there a bonus prize or a typo?
Maybe it was dodgy Viagra related popup from one of those "other" sites! ;-) lol
I've got screenshot. Definitely says 65 inch but I think it said 55 inch when trying to check out. A bit sloppy though to get both prize and size wrong on the banner! Unless they upgraded it last second.
Actually, the banner got cut off so it actually said $10 when I inspected element to view original image. Still said 65 inch though.
had that as well, guessing a typo. got into the checkout page and it said 55 inch
WOOHOO I scored a TV.
Also then got a cancellation email as apparently my order was against their terms. Bullshit!
I’m complaining to them.
That's terrible. What term?
Prob they only had 1 TV, so if 5 people ended up scoring the deal, 4 will get rejected for violating the terms…lol
Oh the we sold too many TVs term. Shocking if true!
Which terms? Had you already won a prize?
It seems he/she already won the Fitbit.
Yep, looking back at their last post in this discussion they got a fitbit which means that by getting a second item they are indeed breaching the terms and conditions
Didn’t realise you couldn’t win more than one deal. Couldn’t find that in the terms.
I found under “Links and Advertising” which doesn’t even seem like the right section anyway, it says one item per household. But it’s not clear whether it’s 1 per deal/coupon code or 1 item of all the deals TV, Drone etc.
So just wondering, if I got the "confirmation - pending review email," and have not received any cancellation email, will my order be likely to go through. Or is the order still subject to availability?
Also got this, hoping for the best!
I guess given they only have a few of each item, it is not hard to check if people have 'won' other items.
When I click on my order status, it says "Your order is confirmed. We've accepted your order, and we're getting it ready. Come back to this page for updates on your order status."
Does this mean that my order has been reviewed and confirmed, and just waiting for shipment? Or just the fact they have taken my order, but they still gotta review it?
That is what I would assume. Just waiting on shipment now.
I got a google home and my status is still unfulfilled.
My order status used to be like your above one. However, it changed to this one below. Wondering if anyone gets the same status.
"Your order is pending
We’ve received your order, and our compliance team is reviewing it to ensure all meets our terms and conditions. Come back to this page for updates on your order status."
My gift card has been shipped. The phrasing of the email sounds a bit worrying though, does it mean that if you signed up to newsletter on a different email than you used for click frenzy store account, you won't get your price? Who knows.
Congratulations.
We have verified your subscription to Click Frenzy and your parcel is on its way. Enjoy and please share the news using #clickfrenzy so we can keep these spectacular deals going.
Cheers,
The Click Frenzy TeamIf you are not subscribed to their email newsletter - it's pretty clear in the terms that you are not eligible for the prize so they will check the email of your CF Store account against their subscribers.
Anyone got any notifications about an item other than gift cards?
I don't have conditions in front of me, but I interpreted it that you'd need to be a subscriber to get the clues. Keeping in mind that people have multiple emails addresses, I might be a subscriber on a different address for example.
Either way, if that's the case (and if signing up for the store account didn't automatically subscribe you) I'm sure many people will be caught out.
The Site and all of the products sold via the Site are only available to registered Click Frenzy subscribers and only available while stocks last. To be a registered Click Frenzy subscriber, you must have completed the registration at www.clickfrenzy.com.au and any purchase made must use the subscribed email address as the contact. Click Frenzy will use the contact email to confirm subscription - any purchase attempts made by non-registered subscribers will be cancelled and monies refunded.

I thought this is pretty straight forward that you need to be subbed? If anyone hasn't done so, you should go ahead and do it ASAP I would say.
That's remarkably straight forward. I clearly didn't read the full terms and conditions. If they enforce it, I still think people will get caught out though.
The issue now is, do you subscribe if you are not sure if you subscribed through that link earlier? Will that potentially override already existing subscription with the current date (as which point they might cancel prize due to subscribing after purchase)? ;)
Yeh, we were discussing this very thing at work today. I think to be safe, just subscribe if you havent, then pray.
Just a heads up, my brother received a shipping confirmation from Click Frenzy for his iPad just before. He said he also received an email from "Temando" with insurance details (for the shipment).
From their Facebook:
Update on the Click Frenzy Go Wild deals: We have been shipping bargains of a lifetime all week and continuing to work through. Reinforcements have been brought in. All legitimate orders will be confirmed and shipped within the coming days, if not received already. We're more than halfway through but it takes time for our compliance team to verify subscribers and weed out scammers (eg. Fake accounts, customers trying to cheat to obtain multiple orders using false IDs, etc.) We apologise for the time it takes but this is necessary to ensure only genuine customers complying with the terms and conditions receive orders.
Just got my Myer $200 Giftcard. Thanks CF :)
About a week ago I got confirmation mine was shipped. Based on tracking it should be here early next week. Google home BTW
Im a little confused by the way the tracking of the package works. When i put in the cosignment number and postcode on http://www.alliedexpress.com.au/ it says "The specified job was not found on postcode(xxxx) Please check with sender" What am i doing wrong?? Also my tracking number is in the format of "TEMxxxxxx" where xxxxxx are a string of numbers
I got my tracking number off the click frenzy store order. When you click on it, it should take you to another page - temando (my tracking number is just numbers). From there I have three status updates.
Awaiting pick up
Picked up
Your parcel is currently in transit between our 'Melbourne' and 'Capricorn Coast' depots.I have the exact same situation too. Hoping it gets resolved, did you try contacting them?
I ordered a google home as well. Still says fulfillment status is "Unfulfilled." :(
same here! :( hopefully mine ships sooner or later
me too :'(
I typed the wrong address in my order so I emailed their customer service and after taking my order number they never got back to me. That was weeks ago. So today I went out to their offices in Mount Waverley and spoke to them. Apparently I had been flagged because I'm not subscribed and they can't send me the Google Home. There's "nothing they can do" because it's in their terms.
Word of advice: check if you're subscribed!!!My order is still on pending, is it just me?
mines still pending :(
Click Frenzy canceled my Xbox order today stating "it was canceled because it contravenes the Click Frenzy store terms and conditions. Note that the terms of the sales state that there is only one item per household or per user. and your payment has been refunded." Must've been because I won the Xbox then I won the $100 Myer Gift Card for $1 which was canceled straight away. Now the Xbox has been canceled that I won first so I have nothing. Wasn't aware of the 1 item per household policy until the second item was canceled.
Woke up to this email this morning :
Your order has been cancelled
Order was canceled because it contravenes the Click Frenzy store terms and conditions. Note that the terms of the sales state that there is only one item per household or per user. and your payment has been refunded.Only reason I can see me being in violation of the Terms is that myself and friends had a get-together at my house to use my NBN and each have a go, we all only won one prize each and they're being shipped to our respective houses, but I think because all of the orders came from the same network they'll say it all falls under the "one per household" category unfortunately.
That's the first I've heard of them restricting by IP. Did everyone get their prizes cancelled then? How many prizes in total are we talking about?
4 people total, all with our own names, paypals, emails, phone numbers, addresses
All prizes cancelled? You should definitely call and ask why your prize was cancelled. Doubtful it would lead to anything, but would be interesting to hear what reason they give if nothing else, ie if they bring up the multiple users on same IP. Which technically doesn't breach conditions, although it might be a hard one to sell.
@fruxo: yeah all of us got cancellation emails this morning, I've emailed them explaining the situation (they've replied and said they'll get back to me), might give them a call if nothing comes of it
@Stew-y: do you happen to have their phone number? because when I called them using the number on their facebook page, it went straight to the voicemail.
@ltvo3: hmm i assumed it was the one on their facebook? not sure, but yeah tons of people are saying it just goes to voicemail
yea goes straight to voicemail with a promise youll get a call back which never happens.
@Ihaveadog: Call up and say you are looking to advertise in the upcoming click frenzy. They will call you back.
have you tried it? does it actually work?
Same here.
My prize is still pending
same here
So it turns out orders were cancelled for several people here at work. If you run a competition during work hours, then you are bound to get multiple users on the same company IP address. We have 20 staff all participating. So long as we have unique households, we are not breaching any terms and conditions. Will definitely be taking this further. If I find enough people in the same boat, happy to take to VCAT.
same thing happened here!
Mine got cancelled too. CF claims the "Note that the terms of the sales state that there is only one item per household or per user" doesn't necessarily mean you breached the one item per household term.
Well my TV cam today! Very happy customer
Can I assume it was the 55" as per order info, and not 65" as per banner?
Got TV delivered today. Can confirm it's 55".
My order's still pending - no word of a cancellation/confirmation email
Yeah mines still pending
May send them an email with your order number, status, your contact number etc. and ask if they can double check it for you. Perhaps it is just a coincidence (or not) but yesterday my order was still pending yesterday, it has changed to "fulfiled" today with tracking number after I sent them an email. :) Hope it helps.
so I sent them an email on 6th .. its still pending , their original email said don't worry it will arrive in time for xmas , I'm thinking its not going to be here in time :(
@Mortifer: Normally, it takes only 2 days since when they update the order status to "fuflfilled", to when the courier actually delivers the parcel to your door. So don't be worried as you still have time :).
Has anyone received their drones yet?
Mine was cancelled and refunded
