    Can not keep up with all these spend requirements…
    spend $155 at Woolies for 2 weeks, spend $100 at Coles for 4 weeks, spend $50 at Big W (lol) in the next week.

    It's too good to pass up though!

    I prefer the points. Not quite same-same…

    Each week I buy a $50 Coles E-gift card online at a 5% discount (plus a 1% transaction charge) then cash the points in for Flybuys dollars then I use the Flybuys dollars on beer and cider at Liquorland. So to me it's free beer. yayyyy….

      Aren't gift card purchases excluded from offers such as the one in this post and earning Flybuys points?

      • melbourne guy on 17/08/2018 - 11:16

        I believe they are referring to paying for their Coles purchases using discounted Coles e-Gift Cards obtained elsewhere, which means you can still earn flybuys on your purchases (doesn't matter what payment method you use).

    Thanks OP. The email was in my junk folder. However i got spend $70 each week for 4 weeks and get 10,000 bonus points. Still a lot better than the $110 or $130 weekly minimum spend amounts i used to get.

  • melbourne guy on 16/08/2018 - 21:04

    Targeted. My offer is spend $80 or more in one shop OR over multiple shops each week for 4 weeks.

    I think this the first time Flybuys has done a "over multiple shops" offer which is refreshing to see, as the one shop offers are virtually useless to me.

    • Kas on 16/08/2018 - 21:15

      my one says,
      Spend $80 or more in one shop, in store or online at Coles, each week for 4 weeks

      i got $90 too, lucky who got $50/weeks

      • freefall101 on 17/08/2018 - 00:30

        it's all based on your regular spend - I bought some booze with my coles online order recently that meant I put in a $300 order - so mine is $170 each week. I'm going to pass, I usually spend nowhere near that much.

        Although with some cheapish beers in there it could be doable. Just need to hope there's a few other decent sales the other 3 weeks. $680 to get $100 back isn't that great though.

        • dazweeja on 17/08/2018 - 00:43
          +1

          Even though you got 300 points, I wonder if it was worth scanning your card on that shop considering it has put these offers out of reach?

        • freefall101 on 17/08/2018 - 11:10

          @dazweeja:
          Bought online, so my flybys are tied to my account. Not actually sure if I can deactivate it.

  • Weasel on 16/08/2018 - 21:08

    Would buying a Coles gift card in store be considered as $50 or more in one shop?

    • mysterytal on 16/08/2018 - 21:09

      No all gift card purchases are excluded.

      me too, my one was 4x$70, this time it is 4x$80

  • grasstown on 16/08/2018 - 22:03

    First time I haven't been targeted with these 4 week spends. Oh well, I have had enough for now and am content

    • nickj on 20/08/2018 - 11:23

      Same! I'm usually always targeted (4 X $50 shops for 10,000 points), and meet the criteria (usually spend $1 or $2 over $50), but this time around, nothing. I'm wondering if it's because after last time's 4 weeks, I did an extra $60 shop the following week as I got could combine a 1000 point + 500 point offer for that, and I needed some things that I couldn't get at Aldi, so shopped at Coles. So maybe they're testing if I'll take a lower offer (e.g. I got a 1000 point offer for $50 shop for this week)? Or maybe it's just random? Either way, I'll gut my Coles spend until the decent offers return (by which mean >= 25% of spend back as points), and shop at Aldi instead.

      • grasstown on 20/08/2018 - 11:36

        Yeah I think it is linked as last round I did two bigger spends with those random bonus points per spend. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/389596. I also used booster points too. But I didn't do an extra spend, except to get a gift card. They now give me single week bonus points too - this week and last week. I'll just wait and see what comes next.

  • t3chshopper on 16/08/2018 - 22:14

    $130 a week x 4 weeks here. Time to get a second card for the wife and not use it, in order to get targeted for these deals!

    they slowly increase the min spend each month. I had spend 50 a week to get 50. then then next month was spend 70 a week to get 50. now I'm on 90 a week to get 50… so guess I wait again until I get spend 50 to get 50 again (its my 2nd loop of it so it does happen)

  • covertowl on 17/08/2018 - 08:20

    So, which to choose… $50 discount or 10000 points (which equates to a $50 discount anyway)?

    I would think the points as there is a one way conversion there. Can the points be used elsewhere for better value?

    • SnoozeAndLose on 17/08/2018 - 08:24
      +5

      $50 discount u need to shop at least $50.05 and points you can use it at other store other yhan Coles only.

      • LauralHardy on 17/08/2018 - 09:31

        Yup I got caught with that gag, chose the flybuys and chose to redeem them at Coles then you can spend them $10 at a time.

        • tks1432 on 17/08/2018 - 10:29
          +3

          Same. Used to choose $50 discount but I had to commit to another $50.05 spend within a month. I got smarter and choose the points now. Redeem the points to flybuy dollars and spend anytime, anyhow I wanted it.

      • helloeatty on 17/08/2018 - 10:26

        Thanks for heading up, never know need to spending over 50 to get the discount. Are the flybuy points forever green?

          Flybuys points remain valid so long as you either collect or redeem points within 12 months

    • Gooddeal21 on 22/08/2018 - 08:35

      I was transferring them to velocity when 15% extra, don't think the value is better but when needed for a flight might do. at the moment I am leaving them and see what I ll do with them. Didn't shop at Coles for a while but I guess I will for the next 4 weeks :)

  • Shoppingisfun on 17/08/2018 - 08:45

    $240 a week for for weeks :((

    • kokomo1978 on 17/08/2018 - 09:11

      Yep I'm at $200. It's gone down from $230.
      Got a Woolies deal for 11,000 points over 4 weeks for spending $120 a week on as many shops as I like. Might switch my shopping over and go for that instead.
      Luckily we've got all the minis or the kids will be annoyed.

  • neo335 on 17/08/2018 - 08:51

    I been getting $50/4weeks offer 4 times already this year. Maybe the trick is to spend around 50 each time. I used on opal recharges each time

      yes I only spend $50 or $51 each time and purchase anymore using another flybys card and I have also had these offers several times this year.

  • tonydav on 17/08/2018 - 08:58

    Mine was $50/wk as well. Don't buy much at Coles but might have to. At least the 9yo will be happy with a few of those bloody mini things.

        Are you sure? It doesn't say anything in the offer about not your $50 spend excluding gift cards. I'll have to recheck.

          Did you read the fine print at the bottom of your e-mail? I did:

      Same here
      Got 2 x $50 spends in a row and now it’s $60 a week
      I’ll pass it this time so that their system reduces back to $50 next time

  • pikapika on 17/08/2018 - 09:23

    Pass for me. Spend $80 each week. I usually spend anywhere from $30 to $50 a shop. So, asking for $80 just isn't going to happen.

  • donkcat on 17/08/2018 - 09:39

    Has anyone not got this offer at all? I haven't had an offer from Coles (apart from 1000 points liquor land) for about 6 weeks since I created a 2nd account in my partners name. Used to get a lot of offers and can't help but think the two are linked.

    • Yola on 18/08/2018 - 11:18

      I have 5 separate accounts and got this offer on 4 of them.

  • DemocracyManifest on 17/08/2018 - 09:55

  • danielmilner on 17/08/2018 - 11:37
    +1

    We get these almost every 5 weeks. We just finish one and get offered another, sitting in some kind of sweet spot atm. We generally do complete them. Over 12 months we have accumulated over $500 in points almost on these offers alone.

    Just finished a $140 one, the next has just come in at $160. I think we got to $180 once and passed and after a few months, not sure if we shopped at Woolworths a bit during that period or didn't scan our card, the dropped back down.

    Pretty happy to receive them IMO given we spend $160-$200 each week.

  • arctan on 17/08/2018 - 11:56

    Can you spend on Mobile phone recharge credits? Since you can't do opal topup at coles or buying gift cards it's difficult to spend 90 bux each week for 4 weeks. That is $360 on coles without gift card purchase.

    • melbourne guy on 17/08/2018 - 12:12
      +1

      It does make it difficult. I would assume mobile phone recharges are excluded, because they are similar to gift cards. My only advice is to either offer to buy someone else's groceries for them and get them to pay you back, or to buy non-perishable items you can store for later (i.e. Toilet Paper, Laundry Detergent etc)

    • billy_bob on 17/08/2018 - 12:25

      Gift cards and mobile recharges are excluded from the spend, I learnt this the hard way and missed out on 10k (=$50) points once.

      • kerfuffle on 18/08/2018 - 07:16

        Not just Coles Wynyard, but a handful of them across Sydney. I think Broadway also does Opal top-ups (plus two in my area in South-west Sydney)

  • billy_bob on 17/08/2018 - 12:23
    +4

    PRO TIP: only spend JUST over the amount needed to get the points. If you spend more, your next offer will require a higher spend. I am consistently getting $80 x 4 weeks offer for 10k pts for the last few months, which is OK for me if I do a full weekly shop. I used to get $120 and $150 offers which I could not keep up, so I just stopped shopping at Coles for a while and used the Woolies offers (which have been poor lately). Coles learnt their lesson and hence the $80 offers lately. It's a bit of a game, you just have to know how to play it.

        Only 1 of your flybuys link to your velocity (if you are after that).. others just redeem for points.

        I find redeeming points for coles dollars the best use of your flybuys points.

  • tazdevil76 on 17/08/2018 - 13:48

    Our targeted email requires spend of $260 per week. We have only been spending approx $240-$250 so this forces us to spend more if we want the bonus points.

  • phynicle on 17/08/2018 - 17:24

  • phynicle on 18/08/2018 - 10:06

    Is this $50/wk in a single store or $50/wk in a single store in a single transaction?

    • nickj on 20/08/2018 - 11:31

      These offers are usually always about a single transaction, but can be in any Coles store (e.g. one offer I did 3 weeks in Sydney and 1 week in Brisbane, and got the points no problem). So at least $50, in a single shop, in any Coles, and you scan your flybuys card, repeated in 4 separate weeks. Can usually tell when you've done it as it says "Congratulations, you have completed your week 1 shop" at the bottom of the docket.

  • arctan on 18/08/2018 - 22:28

    Anyone know if Coles World Square Sydney has OPAL top up?

  • drumrollplease on 19/08/2018 - 14:23
