Do Gift Cards Count Towards Coles' 4 Week Spend Deals?

Coles regularly run those deals - spend $1XX a week for 4 weeks get $XX worth of points. T&Cs exclude gift card purchase, but curious if OZB can confirm if they are able to recognise gift cards in the spend and enforce those terms? Either as a single purchase, or as part of a grocery purchase. Thanks!

    Yes, tried and tested.

    • to clarify.. yes they recognise it, so it doesn't count towards the spend?

        Yes, tried and tested.

        • thx

      • It does count towards the spend.

  • I'm sure they can recognise it, just as they can recognise other non-qualifying items. But you can use a gift card to pay.

    Purchasing giftcards won’t count toward the spend.
    Groceries purchases paid with giftcards do.
    Phone recharge purchases count too.

    Can confirm the purchase of gift cards does NOT count towards the weekly spend.

  • Would be kind of silly if buying gift cards included towards the spend amount. Effectively they would be handing out free $$.

  • So what part of the email sent to you to sign up with, cant you read??

    Offer is available once per flybuys account. $50 transaction and $50 discount EXCLUDES purchases of ALL GIFT cards, iTunes cards, tobacco and tobacco related products.

    Now for a discount from specsavers..

    In the meantime I highlighted the relevant words above

    These guys can track how much you spend, on what you spend it on etc etc. Thats why they give incentives.

    • Yes thank you for your kind response

    • I think OP was hoping that "the computer wouldn't notice" that a gift card had been purchased. ;)
