20% off on The Good Guys gift cards when purchased at Australia Post from 30 April to 13 May.
PS: Although the deal technically starts on the 30th, some Australia Post outlets seem to be honouring the deal now.
PPS: Looks like the link has been photoshopped out of the Australia Post official catalogue. And the link has been removed from Lasoo. I've updated the link to the catalogue. It is on the bottom of page 5 of the catalogue.
Maybe they filled all the previous orders and had a bit of excess? Hopefully these are here by the 11th too!
all gone
If anyone needs to get rid of $400 worth in Melb, pm me
Sigh, don't have the time to keep checking and next thing it's all gone. If anyone in Sydney can spare $400, please pm me. Thanks.
ANyone in Sydney cbd with $500 of GG gift cards not required, please PM me. Paid or unpaid cards are fine. Thanks.
i wonder if… once a card has been used, can it be taken back to australia post for a top up?
free business for australia post?
pin has been opened dont think they will do
The Ts&Cs say the cards cannot be reloaded.
Anyone in Melbourne willing to sell? Pm pls
anyone in Sydney know where i can still get some or have some i can buy off them please pm me
I rang springwood post office last friday and they said they had $500. too lazy to go there myself…
worth checking again.
Does anyone in Melbourne know where I could still get some or anyone willing to sell please pm me
Just got $1500 from Ascot in Brisbane, on Racecourse Rd. They had $400 left if anyone's interested. Lady told me the promo ends tomorrow.
Technically (in)correct as most post offices are closed Saturday (sale ends 13th May going by printed catalogue)
I saw about $500 left at Armadale Post office in WA
Thanks…I'll call tomorrow to find out if any left before I go
called multiple post office in Sydney all sold out, anyone know where i can still get some please pm me
They should have included larger denomination cards for this promotion. If it requires someone to buy out an entire store's stock of cards to buy a fridge or TV, it's kind of pointless only have 10 $100s and 10 $50s.
This would be good for a supermarket gift card promotion, but we're talking $1000+ purchases here. Supply is just inadequate and they should have thought it through.
I suspect they did think it though, that's why they're all sold out (pretty much)!
Can anyone help me find $400 worth of card please? Or does anyone have spare? I only need $400. I'm in Sydney, but happy to pay postage if you are not in Sydney. Thanks
There is $500 (10 x $50) in stock at the Penrith store.
Would you please be able to grab $400 for me please? I live in Eastern Suburb area & can only travel there during weekend with my husband. Would really appreciate your help.
Thanks
Sorry. I'm in Hong Kong. I'm just passing on information to help those looking for giftcards still.
no worries then. thanks for the information.
Call them direct and ask them to reserve for you.
scored 6.5k all up .. pretty happpy with it.. mornington had 500$ after i left
willing to share any or get the rest from mornington and post to me?
At least $500 left at Cotton Tree QLD and another $500 at Maroochydore (Duporth Ave) QLD. They are the only two shops I have tried.
Anyone in Sydney CBD with spare $200 or $250, please PM me. Need it today. I'm willing to pay 90% of value.
i got my cards in my mailbox..
i was home the whole time.. yet mailman did not even bother to ring the bell… could've lost all my cards
good on you, BTW,you got them today? I am still waiting for my cards,
ya… just alerting ozbargainers so they can get someone to check the mailbox if they're not home
Received my giftcards in the mail today.
BTW: Came via non-registered express post
Received mine, made me content
so if you don't activate all of them… you can save it for the next year?
that's what i was wondering. thinking of delaying the activation to extend the life of the card since i don't plan to use it just yet. But if you wait too long and call auspost up to activate they might not have it in their system anymore
austpost just OKed partial activation.. activate whenever you like
what do you mean partial activation? I haven't called them up yet
just ask to activate say $1000 out of $3000
and the nice customer service lady will read out the card numbers that she will activate for you
righto, thanks
Is there any timeframe when the latest you can activate the cards? Just received some early this week.
When had you ordered?
I don't think you self-activate them, I think the vendor does. Check some of your cards at http://giftvouchers.com.au/BalanceEnquiry.aspx
All of mine were already activated, I didn't need to do anything.
I think in store and via mail is different :) They probably get sent inactive so you can't claim you didn't receive them.
I have checked the balance on the cards that i ordered online, none of them are activated. So need to call them to have them activated.
Those who ordered on the second lot of online will receive them early next week! :) So you have to activate over the phone once you receive them?
Managed to get my mother to grab some from a PO in a NSW country town. The town doesn't have a Good Guys which worked to my advantage!
Received my GG cards from auspost the first lot sold online.
I hate to be "that guy" but if anyone has some spares I would be more than happy to take them off your hands. I managed to score a couple hundred but I'm still a fair bit short of the iPad I was after. Send me a PM if you can help, thanks in advance!
I'm going to up the ante, if anyone is willing to split the difference between value and cost(ie I can get it off your hands a $100 gift card for $90) PM me, 20Km radius of Melbourne CBD only) need $800 for my WM and if u got lots, I can get additional 2.3K off you.
So who do we ring to get these activated? Can we get them activated over the weekend? I didn't get any sort of note or letter with my order.
it should be stuck to your invoice… 1800 331 794
wondering if anyone ordered via uat site as receive the gift cards?
Here's my story….
Went to 2 Sydney CBD PO on launch morning and no luck.
Called a regional NSW PO last Thurs and the helpful staff there were able to put $600 worth of gift cards as an internal transfer to the Sydney GPO. The package was to be addressed to my name, care of the manager at the GPO.
On Friday last week, I realised i needed a few more cards, so called the same PO and got another $400 transferred.
I gave a heads up to the GPO manager that there are some cards coming.
Day after day… i checked with the manager… and the answer was always "haven't received it".
Yesterday, i called the regional NSW PO again and they were very sure that the packages were sent last week and there's no way it takes more than 2-3 working days. So I checked with the GPO again and they said there's no receipt of any gift cards.
It is extremely hard to believe that two packages sent internally can both went missing, especially when I know that the GPO manager said to me last week that even his staff would like to get some gift cards.
Luckily, my friend helped me to source some cards elsewhere and will go shopping at TGG tomorrow :)
If my one has some in brisbane pm me. Happy to get about $1k worth if possible
Thanks
Not sure any participating POs are open on Sunday, so the race is on to get any final gift cards on Saturday. I managed to get $2900 on the first morning and none since, but was hoping to get some for a couple of mates. Too many people missed out on this deal unfortunately.
Like everyone else, I'd really appreciate it if someone would sell me a spare $400..i want an ipad too! I missed out due to work getting in the way of tracking down cards at diff post offices…PM me if anyone doesnt want there left over cards…live in newtown area
Would like to know how to activate the giftcards?
I have not receive any cards from the first lot….
Most of you get it today inside the mail box..
What if they get lost or stolen on the way… as they send thru express post not register …. =(((
Just been into my local and they got plenty of cards but wont honour it :/ - is it only certain PO??
did you show them the relevant page of the catalogue?
I sent my hubby and did nt have the catalogue … cant find it now cuz the took it off the one on the link otherwise I would be going in Monday to show them and ask if they would honour it since they turned him away when the promo was still on. Sent an email to complain but I very much doubt they will do anything about it
which po that u went today?
I have got $600 worth of good guys cards. Happy to sell them for $480 (cash). I am in Perth.

this deal is expired why does it say its still valid
I think its still on today…
Is there any post office which is open on a Sunday?
plenty
LPOs, probably quite a few. Post Shops, not many (if any) I'd say. But most if not all of the LPOs are not participating in this offer.
Almost all of the post shops in my area are open.
heh. Some reason I thought it was Saturday today :D
I don't think any post offices are open on Sunday :)
anyone selling in melbourne?
I am interest in $500 worth of cards if anyone is selling with the 20% discount.
It will be interesting to see when TGG GCs hit the shelves again, and whether they are the old ones ( which should have been made available to us) or the new type.
Just recieved mine from the second lot of orders.
It was express post, and I didn't get any confirmation emails / tracking numbers. :)
There's also a mistake on the invoice. It says it includes $43 GST :)
I received my cards from the second online release too. The cards were sent by unregistered Express Post and delivered to my street letter box.
All cards were activated and anybody could steal and use them. I cannot believe AP is that stupid.
Are you sure you got the cards? Check again, if not you should call to follow up and get them to prove delivery. :)
Thinking the same. I just got my cards. Had ordered through 'registered post' buy it came in an 'express post' satchel. Not surw if the receptionist signed for it. Might be worth checking with her ;)
Waiting for my cards anxiously… I've chosen Registered post though ..so hopefully get it before the weekend.
If anyone has $500 spare I would love to take them off their hands.
Anyone still willing to sell some cards at 15% discount?
What is your location? Can you enable your private message?
Hey guys,
GG are sh##ing me. Bought the giftcards specifically to get a new ultrabook. They seem to be over 20% more expensive than what JBHifi are selling for (currently on sale). So I have $820 worth of giftcards.
If anyone is willing to buy them for $730 let me know.
Thanks, andy.
They won't price match ?
?
Just price match TGG with JB.
Edit: Beaten!
maybe they're being dickheads when they found out you were paying by Gift cards
Looking to buy cards in Sydney.
PM me if you have some to sell!
