          Well the visa 10% was in March this year so for mastercard yes but not for a 10% off credit card deal

            @Yabadabadoo: The $100 and $250 Vanilla Visa gift cards were 10% off at Coles in March 2024 for NSW and ACT only.

            It looks like the commenter you replied to is not from NSW nor ACT.

    So you spend $100 to save $5 and $250 to save $3? Hardly seems worth the effort

      10500 Velocity points for $50 (2 accounts), not a bad trade imo

      • ComfortablyNumb on 02/08/2024 - 17:34
        +1

        Another 1000 velocity points too if you purchase with a points earning credit card / redeem at 2:1 =11500 velocity points and $1000 gift cards -> for $1050 (10$100 gift cards + 10$5 fee) -> 0.004347826086 per velocity point = $50 / 11500

      • cashews on 02/08/2024 - 17:38

          Setup transfer from flybuys, and have a credit card which earns / can convert to velocity

      • gembel on 02/08/2024 - 17:46

        How do you get 10500 velocity points? Bonus is 2000 flybuys only

        • WookieMonster on 02/08/2024 - 17:55
          +10

          If you purchase 5 gift cards through this deal (which is the maximum you can purchase per Flybuys account for this deal), you will earn:

          • 10,000 bonus Flybuys points, and
          • 1 point per $1 you spend on the gift cards.

          Assuming you purchase 5x $100 Coles Mastercard gift cards, you will earn a total of 10,525 Flybuys points. Considering you can convert 1000 Flybuys points into 500 Velocity points, that is equivalent to 5262 Velocity points.

      You spend $500 to save $25 per account on council rates, utilities, taxes etc. Not much, but there were no significantly better deals last half a year, I'll take it.

      • Utsav23 on 04/08/2024 - 13:07

      • l2argain on 05/08/2024 - 20:03

        So with Sb you buyonline and pick up in store?

        • Yola on 06/08/2024 - 05:21

          It's a gift card that can be purchased at SB. I think it is a 2% discount. You load it into a ewallet and use it in-store to purchase this card, thereby getting an additional discount.

    • KK25 on 02/08/2024 - 19:53

      I was able to do that the last time they had this deal, both TCN etfpos and SB supermarket.

    Ok so how do you even know what you have saved? I tend to over shop if I have GCs lol

    • WookieMonster on 02/08/2024 - 19:34
      +5

      I have built for myself an expenses tracking spreadsheet that records each transaction I make (and I created tables and graphs to help visualise how much I saved or lost each month). One of the features I built into that spreadsheet is a cell where I can add in a percentage to indicate the percentage discount for the payment method I used (and/or the surcharge I had to pay).

      I had a quick look at the spreadsheet and calculated that I saved ~8.4% by using discounted gift cards on my grocery purchases at Woolworths so far this calendar year (as an example).

      • sqheaven on 02/08/2024 - 21:33
        +1

        For Woolworth I always buy 4% discount GCs, but for all other random GC deals, it's a nightmare.

        Amazon, 3%, where most of the kids stuff is coming from.

        Big W 5%, most of the kids stuff as well.

        I have spent without any spreadsheet tracking, back of my mind I am probably savings. And that's what these gift cards are making you believe. You end up giving money to the store even before you buy something 😂

        • Neoika on 03/08/2024 - 08:32

          Yes, you may occasionally get a sting by not applying a discount code at the checkout.

      • thestig on 03/08/2024 - 08:20

          It doesn't look like a straight discount but a compounding result.

    Plus the cash on card expires as well, thats the biggest daylight robbery.

    • ComfortablyNumb on 03/08/2024 - 08:11

      Looks indecisive per this table:
      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/gift_card_deals_retailer_f…

      @WookieMonster might have to add another column for shopback supermarket gift card?

      • WookieMonster on 03/08/2024 - 10:25
        +2

        That table was only intended to cover prepaid gift cards that are blocked, rather than whether prepaid gift cards are blocked or allowed (and this was implied in the text above the table). There were two reasons for this approach:

        1. There are a lot of prepaid gift cards out there not covered by the table (e.g. Westfield eftpos, Activ Visa, Perfect eftpos, Pocket Money, TCN Visa, TCN Mastercard), and adding columns for all of them would break the format of the table on some devices with smaller screens. For example, on an iPad, the comparison table on the Discounted Gift Card wiki page overflows beyond the edge of the screen, and there is no way to see the right-most columns.

        2. If multiple types of gift cards were added to this table to indicate whether or not it worked, someone from Coles could look at this table and quickly see in one place which prepaid gift cards to add to their block list. (Remember, gift card deals say Gift Cards can't be used to purchase other Gift Cards at Coles.) In other words, I do not want to write a convenient guide for Coles on what prepaid gift cards to block next in their checkouts. Sure, you could still figure this out from reading a handful of deals on OzBargain, but you would need to go through the effort to pick through comments of multiple deals and sort out the wheat from the chaff.

        No one has ever reported the ShopBack Supermarket Visa gift card being automatically rejected by a Coles checkout when purchasing any gift cards, which is why it never appeared on this table. However, if the community thinks the table should instead track whether a prepaid gift card is allowed or block, I am not going to stop it, as the table is part of a community wiki page.

        • Craze on 03/08/2024 - 11:00

          In other words, I do not want to write a convenient guide for Coles on what prepaid gift cards to block next in their checkouts.

          Nice one, but one would think that Coles should know themselves what GC payments are blocked in their system? (I'm naively thinking they have a list internally somewhere)

          • WookieMonster on 03/08/2024 - 11:38
            +1

            @Craze: That is my point.

            There are currently only three known types of “gift card” payments where restrictions are programmed into Coles’ checkouts:

            • Gift cards issued by Coles Group (e.g. Coles gift cards, Coles Group & Myer gift cards)
            • Coles/Vanilla Mastercard gift cards
            • Vanilla Visa gift cards.

            So yes, Coles should know about those restrictions.

            The point I was trying to make earlier is that compiling a table with a full range of prepaid gift cards that work and do not work may prompt someone at Coles to extend the “gift card” payment restrictions to more prepaid gift cards (e.g. TCN eftpos, Activ Visa), because they want to double-down on the Gift Cards can't be used to purchase other Gift Cards at Coles policy. With prepaid gift cards, Coles has to figure out themselves the sorts of cards to block, because they cannot rely on the card networks to tell them the type of card being used.

            • Kathiepink on 03/08/2024 - 12:09

              @WookieMonster: Thanks, so is the Tcn eftpos from woollies and ShopBack supermarket still can buy the Coles mastercard? @WookieMonster

            • truetypezk on 03/08/2024 - 12:25
              +1

              @WookieMonster: TCN eftpos used to be blocked early 2024 as a payment method for gift cards, but only recently unblocked for some unknown reasons. I think it might worth testing other cards out again, like the Coles Mastercards. I have a strong feeling that they might be unblocked too.

      Can't say for all, depends on the payment gateway.

      It's often not the site rejecting it, but the payment gateway. Because they are gift cards and difficult to trace, they just don't accept them to limit their exposure.

      I use these to buy myself Amazon gift cards. Everyone is paranoid about these getting hacked. So I simply add these into my payment methods in my Amazon account, use the full amounts to convert them into $100 Amazon gift cards which I then use for all my Amazon purchases. Chuck these out as soon as I've drained them.
