From the upcoming catalogue starting on the 27 April.
I love nut
You all know I'm here for the gift cards, so here's two tips:
If you're interested in the Google Play gift cards, you may be able to get Officeworks to price beat Woolworths' offer whilst it is active, meaning you may be able to get Google Play gift cards at a 14.5% discount. (I say may, because some Officeworks staff seem to come up with random reasons for denying price beats on gift cards.)
The participating retailers for the Ultimate gift cards in this deal are as follows (and is correct as at 23 April 2022):
| Gift Card | Participating Retailers (Visa) |
|---|---|
| Active | 99 Bikes, adidas, Anaconda, Drummond Golf, Foot Locker, JD Sports, Lorna Jane, New Balance, Nike, Puma, Rip Curl, Speedo, The Iconic, Under Armour |
| Baby & Mum | Cotton On Kids, Deliveroo, Michael Hill, Peter Alexander, Prouds, Purebaby, Seed, T2, The Iconic, The Memo, Toyworld, UGG |
| Style | Angus & Coote, ASOS, Bras N Things, Dangerfield, Forever New, General Pants Co., JD Sports, Nike, Nine West, Pandora, Sportsgirl, Sunglasses Hut, The Iconic |
Are there ever any better deals for Google Play?
Yes, although I don’t think 15% discounts at Coles or Woolworths are very common.
It is usually either a 10% discount or bonus Flybuys or Everyday Rewards points.
Hey WookieMonster, do you have a guide for these gift cards. Especially on those coles mastercard, vanilla visa, and such. Like, if they can be used online, link to paypal, and use to pay bills or ato. Thanks.
Hey, I haven’t made a guide yet, mostly because there are a lot of prepaid gift cards to keep on top of, plus acceptance (or non-acceptance) of a prepaid gift card can quickly change.
In lieu of an “official” guide, here’s a quick-and-dirty guide for you:
| Gift Card | Accepted at online merchants?1 | Linkable to PayPal? | Accepted at ATO (Online)? | Accepted at Prezzee? | Accepted at AusPost for In-Person Bill Payments?2 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coles Gift Mastercard | At merchant’s discretion | Yes | Yes | Yes3 | At staff discretion and biller’s discretion |
| Vanilla Visa Gift Card | At merchant’s discretion | Yes | Yes | Only via PayPal | At staff discretion and biller’s discretion |
| OnlyONE Visa Gift Card | At merchant’s discretion | Yes | No4 | Only via PayPal | At staff discretion and biller’s discretion |
| AusPost Gift Card (Mastercard)5 | At merchant’s discretion | ? | Yes | ? | At staff discretion and biller’s discretion |
| The Perfect EFTPOS Gift Card | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | At staff discretion |
Online merchants will only accept prepaid Mastercard or Visa gift cards if they either support 3D Secure or have not had their bank identification numbers (BINs) blacklisted. ↩
You can only use a Mastercard or Visa card to pay for a bill if the biller (e.g. Origin Energy, AGL, Telstra) allows it at Australia Post. Split payments for bills at Australia Post are also at the biller’s discretion and the staff’s discretion. ↩
Prezzee will only accept Coles Gift Mastercards if you contact Prezzee customer support and ask for your account to be changed to accept Coles Gift Mastercards. Alternatively, you can link it to your PayPal and then use PayPal as a payment method on Prezzee. ↩
The card issuer for the OnlyONE Visa gift card blocks all attempts to make a payment at the ATO. The ATO does not block the OnlyONE Visa gift card. ↩
As you can see, I haven’t used the AusPost Gift Card (Mastercard) a lot, as they pretty much don’t have any good deals that offset the $5.95 gift card purchase fee, plus Coles and Woolworths have semi-regular deals that make the other prepaid gift cards on the list more appealing. ↩
Thanks WookieMonster - great list! Are people using the giftcards to pay their ATO bills for points? While I really want them credit card points, my ATO bills are like $5K. Buying 50 cards on and then entering each one into the ATO online payment portal, seem erm…. painful.
Are you super OzB's just enduring the pain for the (cc points) gain? Or is there a better way? Tell me your secrets OzBees.
Wtf is smunchy?
smooth + crunchy
sounds better than crooth
Uhh you can't be both. There are levels of crunchy, but there's only smooth.
I cannot say support this product.
It's just a lower level of crunch.
As a marketing ploy to get your attention - smunchy has worked
That said in practice it was meh
Give me fully smooth or crunchy varieties FTW
The extra crunchy is actually too crunchy IMO
@Noblejoker: Correct it worked. I got it and it was basically smooth with really small bits compared to crunchy. Overall it's unnecessary bit hey they got a lot of SKU already so good luck to them.
Any deals on Epi pens?
The true peanut butter fan enters the chat 😜
Has epi pen deal ever been posted on this site?
Hydrocortisone :)
Can I buy extra google storage using Google gift cards
Yes you can pay your google one account with credit.
Yes you can buy Google storage via GC
Been a long time since this PB was last on sale! All my stock of it is gone, so looking forward to this deal to stock up again :)
Rookie mistake - buy more this time - I can't live without Dark Roast
same here.
For "The Iconic" credits, better to buy the Ultimate Gift Cards (Visa variant) as promotion above instead of The Iconic gift card as it gives 5% more discount.
The Iconic, Lorna Jane & Luxury Escapes will do 10% off during the promotion period at the same time.
The same applies to "Lorna Jane " as well, so here's the Ultimate Cards substitutions which can give you for 5% further discount.
Has anyone tried to use the Google Play cards for an Indian or Turkey payment account?
Dark Roast Crunchy and Smooth have been price matched by Amazon

Thanks, just got Officeworks to price match and then get a further 5% off.
