Hi all,

Surprised no-one's put this up yet! Went and picked up a copy of the Herald Sun just to see if the weekly deal was still on - phew.

Anyway, you know the routine by now. Page 20 of the TV pullout in the Wednesday's copy of the Herald Sun. Take it to Dan Murphy's / First Choice and get a pricematch :)

I believe The Age also get the ad in Thursday's paper (someone may need to confirm this).

Happy drinking ^^

        I agree, continually seeing these deals is starting to infuriate me.

        • King Tightarse on 13/04/2011 - 23:17

          Well come down to Melbourne then.
          No tacky harbor bridge to distract you.
          We have depth of culture.

          Oh and cheap beer……………..:p

    Hoping if I go tonight I'll get there before they conveniently 'run out of stock' :p

    Quite impressed they are still running these deals actually..

    Surprised no-one's put this up yet!

    Thanks, I was waiting for you to post so I could see whether it was worth forking out for today's paper :P

      Haha, yeah I should have realised - this is Ozbargain after all!

      Well I didn't actually buy the paper til I confirmed the ad was inside ;)

    So im guessing Dans won't have any Corona slabs on display for price matching as of tonight. They magically didn't have any slabs of either Asahi or Peroni last time these guys had the $30 specials, but slabs magically appeared after the sales ended.

    • jv on 13/04/2011 - 16:45

      which stores? i've never had a problem…

      • TZK on 14/04/2011 - 10:57

        Sth Melb

    • fLaMePrO on 13/04/2011 - 16:47

      Same here. But I did go on the second day of the deal, so I'm hoping I'll have a better chance tonight.

      This happened at the Brighton store.

    • drdolphin on 14/04/2011 - 08:23

      Selling Corona at $30, Dan's apparantly loses $10 on each case so many stores take them out back on Wednesday mornings before they open. I understand they are a business trying to make money, but they've created this "problem" by promising to beat any advertised price. Very poor to pull stock off the shelf when they are undersold.

      I bet every Dans mysteriously has a full pallet of Coronas on Friday morning, just in time for the deal to end.

  • Grandslam on 13/04/2011 - 18:33

    Is there a reason they only seem to do these cheap deals in the southern states? What about QLD?

  • bensl on 13/04/2011 - 18:56

    wish they would put coopers on special!

  • sinners007 on 13/04/2011 - 19:24

    I find First Choice to be more honorable. Dan Murphys Doncaster is a disgrace-always "sold out" the day of these deals.

  • Rocket on 13/04/2011 - 19:24

    Thanks for posting, completely forgot to check the paper today, but did bring a copy home from the office and the deal is valid for Thursday, so will go there tomorrow. Down to the last few Corona's from last time.

    I have never had a problem going to DM on Dandenong Rd in East Malvern. Although sometimes need to dig into the back of the fridge ;-)

  • fLaMePrO on 13/04/2011 - 21:00

    No luck again. Don't know why I got my hopes up, they're such dogs.

    You could even CLEARLY see the space where the Coronas had been. They cleared the individual 6 packs out of the fridge as well.

    I ask the guy when they are expecting new stock and he goes "Oh should be tomorrow. Maybe, I'm not sure. Try another store. But call them first."

    Sigh.

    • arcticmonkey on 13/04/2011 - 22:00

      Who? Where?

      • fLaMePrO on 13/04/2011 - 22:13

        Dan Murphy's, Brighton store

    yeah i would really expect better from the big chains, tired of selling beer at a loss? well change your price match guarntee!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Athomas on 13/04/2011 - 22:09

    Got mine at South Melbourne at about Midday.

    They were suspiciously on a large trolley, I don't know if they were about to go away somewhere or if they were just there for everyone to see. I'm thinking the former!

    • sxllzb on 13/04/2011 - 22:37

      seems you're the lucky guy..

      anyone knows if coles or woolworth has the price match policy? that will make it much easier..

      • drdolphin on 14/04/2011 - 08:23

        No, they don't. I believe only First Choice and Dan Murphys will price match.

  • bryans on 13/04/2011 - 23:58

    Irresponsible to make it so cheap and accessible. They should tax the hell out of alcohol like cigs.

    • ur2dads on 14/04/2011 - 01:43

      Kevin Rudd? Is that you?

      Haven't you taxed the liquor and ciggy industries hard enough? I Can't even have a beer in this country without you lot pinching a few dollars outta my pocket every time I spend money to have a sip.

    lol this is the reason i saw 5 people walk out of 1st Choice liquor with Corona boxes on their shoulders… should of known!
