Just got this from my email. For those that joined the 2 Year Membership for free earlier this month and got confirmation emails, it is a good time to sign up. Especially with the last Sony WH-1000XM3 deal that everyone went nuts with, this will prepare you for any future deals that come about. Enjoy :)
For non members, G'Day Rewards is $40 for 2 years membership now free for 1 year thanks to mduncan2 using ACC18 code, this gives you access to TGG Commercial and other partners.
I'M NOT SURE HOW GOOD A DEAL THIS IS AS I WORK IN RETAIL & KNOW PRICES FOR COMMERCIAL, STAFF & INVOICE FROM MANUFACTURER AT WAREHOUSE, WHEN I WORKED AT TGGs I OFTEN MATCHED OR BEAT COMMERCIAL PRICES ON LOWER VOLUMES….
Sorry for the all-caps lol.
Stick to nerd herd Chuck ^^
Interesting! how much do the prices differ for commercial vs staff?
Well, it depends on the category or manufacturer: staff can get 11% off Apple, but customers can theoretically save more if they pay in discounted gift cards that have rewards points or cashbacks etc. Headphones are generally 30% over priced, as are many accessories: a good rule of thumb is if you can get a price of 40% off or better, & that is reflected in ShopBot & MyShopping search engines, then it's a good deal; Bose, for example, is notoriously hard to get cheap so if you can get it cheap, go for it. Apple & some other manufacturers also prevent bulk sales except for educational or enterprise to maintain their inflationary prices.
Crazy mark ups by Apple, people think the newer phones are expensive because the quality but it's because people are not upgrading as frequently as they used to and hence Apple makes extra money to recoup that loss in sales.
All in the strategy
Any suggestions how to get the best price on a new fridge?
FYI
GG Commercial is free for those with Member Advantage, I got membership but the prices don’t seem very much better.
Are those Sony headphones still sub $300?
nah out of stock.
No price
Thanks op
Received 35 emails with different member numbers last time I signed up.
Signed up again using the new code and registered for the commercial website using the new number.
Same, but are all those membership numbers ours, or have they been mixed up and belong to others.
Not sure
That’s the reason I have registered again using the new code
I suspect some of those membership numbers belong to other people, possibly explaining why they didn't receive the welcome email while you guys received multiple.
Wow, not even 1 comment yet stating clearly…not even the op…about what is 'Good Guys Commercial'?
what sort of items are typically available and is there a % discount thats applicable to every item?
Can't say for certain myself since I don't have access to the site. But from what I can gather it only sells items lower than market value, hence the word "commercial".
yeah im just curious if the xm3s were a once off bargain of a lifetime, or will every piece of electronic goods is going to be a screaming bargain each time
very curious
Any good deals, for those with access to their prices?
I have had access to it for a few years now, and never bought anything from it.
alot of the times an ebay TGG +20% off is alot better.
it has been a while since I have looked at the pricing though
Done. Email came almost instantly.
email from gdayrewards or from TGG?
G'day rewards.
Code ACC18 code is invalid now
Signed up just 5 minutes back (7.50AM AEDT), worked for me.
Not working for me either now.
I'm more curious if this would be better than eBay 20% TGG sales
for some items yes!
most of the time. no
Anyone have access to TGG commercial yet ?
Nope here
Still waiting…
Just sign up to unionshopper to get access to good guys commercial.
Fill in any random details, and for your employer just pick any large ASX listed entity. There's no real verification as far as I'm aware - I've had access for the last 2 years this way.
Asks for union membership number now.
I put in a random number, which let me register an account, but when you request access to TGG commercial site, it asks to attach proof of your membership with the union which I assume a person will verify.
Same, it's asking for a photo of the membership card
@xenoic: Looks like they changed it - I can't access Unionshopper anymore, but I still have access to TGG commercial.
Just type up your "membership details" on a word document, scan and submit?
Once you get access to TGG commercial, you don't need unionshopper anymore.
Someone please explain how this works. I signed up. Now what?
"This code is invalid or has already been used. Please check that it has been typed correctly"
No longer working for me (10:24am)
Your membership request
We’re emailing you as you recently signed up for a G’DAY Rewards membership using a promo code advertised on OzBargain.com.au.
Unfortunately the promo code you used to join was compromised and not a legitimate offer. We are not offering free 12 month memberships and are therefore sorry to advise that we are unable to process your membership with us.
We apologise for the confusion and any inconvenience caused. We are addressing these issues in our systems to avoid similar occurrences in the future.
SAME :(
Hahah beaten by 17 seconds.
Slow day in the office too huh?
Yep :)
yep
If they made a genuine mistake I'm. Fine with ta
Hat
But staying its a illegitimate offer makes it sound they're blaming others
Yup, mine was cancelled too.
haha, turns out I should have kept it quiet until I got my GoodGuys access confirmed :-P
I'm pretty sure my parents are legit members of the Australian Caravan club, so I'm a bit disappointed.
Yep, looks like they have cancelled all the memberships issued yesterday. Just got my cancellation email too.
Got the cancellation email, but not before I registered for TGG Commercial. Anyone in the same situation? Wondering if TGG registration will still go thru.
Got the cancellation email too.
same here… I registered for TGG immediately in the morning. Cancellation email just arrived.. fingers crossed…
Cancelled membership. Oh well. We'll just keep trying different avenues
I got a g'day membership yesterday evening, email etc and all works. I just checked now and can still login to the website. I applied for TGG last night but still nothing through this morning.
Fingers crossed
They just sent me below (so I guess most of you will get it, let's hope I am wrong)

Professionals killed it. And they call the deal not legit…. How dare them!?
My account from the last ozb deal was not deleted, but my new one I made with yesterdays code got deleted, so maybe they will honour it for those that signed up last time
Just curious: Why did you make another one?
I just completely forgot I even signed up the first time, Ive got so many emails it can be hard to keep track of sometimes.
Cool, let's hope the best then. I've only got an account from the first time around and they actually sent me the invitation to join Good Guys Commercial…
I buy a lot each year from TGG. 150k -200k and i have an account with TGG commercial but i always get a better price at my local good guys. Always.
How can you spend $150k at TGG a year?
He/She is a legit commercial customer… maybe that’s why. They aren’t looking for a pair of headphones or a TV. They order full kitchens, white goods etc.
Probably builds houses, does interiors for companies etc.
Plz buy me a coffee machine and portable airconditioner. Thanks alot!

Just an FYI you can also access TGG Commercial if you have access to Union Shopper. As per it's namesake, you'll need to be a member of any union in order to create an account.
(not tested as I'm not a member, but let us know if you have success with it.)
Doesn't work when you're requesting access to TGG Commercial. It will specifically ask you to submit a photo of your Union Card.
ANF works.
Why would I want to watch a TGG commercial?
for cheap shit
Got an email saying they'd been ozbargained.
From who? TGG or G'day rewards?
gday
Has anyone actually got there TGG login?
Still waiting….
Yeah I’m still waiting too….
still waiting. have a feeling we won't hear anything…
Got it a couple hours ago
How long was it since you applied?
I emailed tgg and they said at least 3 working day
Like an hour after the deal was posted here
Waiting, you are not alone
I just got the email fro TGG 3 hours ago !!!
Check your inbox
Just from a quick search I haven't actually been able to find many great deals.
I never received my membership number but started receiving emails with deals. So I contacted their membership support and given below is their response followed by another email with the membership number
Hi Prasanth,
Our system shows that you applied for the G’DAY Rewards membership on 14/10 using a promo code which was incorrectly shared outside of its intended users.
We can offer you a 12 month digital membership which will be forwarded shortly, however, no membership card will be issued.
The G’DAY Rewards digital membership will show a virtual card and membership number which you can use for bookings and show as proof of membership at any Discovery Park or Top Park around Australia.
Kind Regards,
Karen Smith
G’DAY Rewards Coordinator
Just receive the account and still trying to reset the password that still not working
I received a response from GG today saying there had been delays and to expect welcome email next week.
I received my login a few minutes after this comment:)
anyone got the account but can't log in? it keeps saying "You do not have the proper authority to sign in. Contact the store for further information."
i had the same problem earlier
wait for a few minutes after resetting the password and now able to logon on my PC browser
damnn its work now!!! at start I thought, there is some issue with my account since they set up the account base on person name and somehow my account have space in between haha
for guys who managed to create their accounts, Is that Still working for you guys?
my account doesn't work anymore and checked with two other colleagues who registered around the same time using the same promo code doesn't work anymore. looks like our G'day accounts have been revoked
Mine still working
Mine is still working. My G'day rewards membership was completely legitimate though.
I found out what the problem was for me- you need to use the login name you made when signing up to the good guys commercial. You can't use the email address as the login name.
mines been working for years…
Just received an email for TGG Commercial site.
You can actually get access to this indefinitely by joining 1 month ($25 tax deductible) with the ASU (through Union Shopper) and then unjoining. I’m still considered a Union Shopper (and therefore can access Commercial) after more than 3 years of quitting lol. I don’t predict that I will be taken off Union Shopper’s mailing list :)
