Hi guys,
I have just signed up to qantas' frequent flyer program. I don't fly or anything and don't really do a lot of grocery shopping over $30 at all. Do you think it's worth me transferring the fuel docket to flyer points or to keep it as the dockets…which one is more worth it?
Thanks!
Everyday Rewards preference to Frequent Flyer Points

Saving cash is always better IMHO
Thanks guys!
I didn't realise there was an option to "transfer" dockets to points. My EDR card auto transfers points accumulated to QFF points. It also gives me fuel dockets…. I get emailed specials for bonus points or docks - this week it's spend over a certain amount for a 25c docket. I also expect to get points for that purchase?
Well there you go…
"And if you’ve got fuel vouchers you’d rather redeem as Qantas Frequent Flyer points, you can swap a 4c per litre voucher for 2 points per litre instead"
I have all mine sent to FF Points. I also fly a fair bit for work. I save up all the points and once a year I get a leave pass from the Mrs and I use them to go on an overseas ski holiday with 2 mates. This year we went to Japan!! I also saved up the hotel reward points and had a couple of nights in Tokyo for free on the way back. The key to reward schemes I reckon is to stick to 1 or 2. If I swapped around I would never get enough points for anything useful. If all you get are the grocery points, stick with the above advice and get cheaper fuel.
Leave them as fuel dockets and save cash. Then you can use the money you saved on flights rather than trying to get flights via the FF program.
