SDC members, have you signed up for any loyalty or rewards programs?

If you haven't, you're missing out: Woolworths' Everyday Rewards offers savings opportunities and bonus point deals that you can use in-store and online.

But a cautionary tale posted on Markdown Addicts Australia recently has reminded us all to be mindful when it comes to spending money to take advantage of offers.

It featured a Woolies customer's ‘boost’ deals that they received from Everyday Rewards – specifically, the offer to receive 22,500 bonus points if they spent a certain weekly amount at Woolworths.

'Pretty happy with that!' they wrote.

The shopper was two out of four weeks into a deal requiring them to ‘spend $155 at Woolworths each week for four weeks’ to receive 13000 bonus points when a new deal popped up. The latest deal required the shopper to ‘spend $230 at Woolworths each week for two weeks’ to earn 9500 bonus points.

Thus, at the end of the two weeks, if the shopper spent an additional $460 they would receive $110 in bonus points. Can you see the issue?

A fellow shopper responded to the post, warning others to be careful when committing to spending large amounts of cash in order to benefit from bonus points and offers.

'It's becoming ridiculous because if you're doing it just to get the rewards, then it's a waste of money, as some people are spending for the sake of it when they don't need it,' the shopper said.

And this point sparked a debate among numerous other shoppers, with some agreeing with the view and some disagreeing.

Those who agreed with the cautionary advice said that spending too much money to benefit from bonus points and offers wasn't a good idea, as the savings from these deals would be wiped away by the money that was spent to earn them.

'I agree, it is ridiculous. They do it so you shop there instead of elsewhere - but elsewhere might have better specials,' added another fellow shopper.

On the other hand, those who disagreed said that there was no pressure to take advantage of these offers and that it was also an opportunity to stock up on essential items without breaking the budget.

'Spending too much is bad, but spending a little more for a good reward is still fine, in my opinion, as long as you buy groceries and household stuff that you will be using in your home,' argued one Facebook user.

Representatives from Woolworths Everyday Rewards spoke out on the matter, reassuring shoppers that their program still helped customers achieve good savings on their yearly grocery bills.

'At Everyday Rewards, our most engaged members save hundreds of dollars each year by activating bonus point offers, shopping specials in their “my weekly picks” and redeeming fuel discounts,' an Everyday Rewards spokesperson said.

'Each week, Everyday Rewards members will receive a selection of individually tailored offers via the Everyday Rewards app. They can choose which offers to boost, based on what they plan to purchase that week, to maximise their savings at the checkout.'

Key Takeaways

• A Woolworths Everyday Rewards member has urged fellow shoppers to be cautious when using some of the program's bonus offers.
• The shopper was set to receive 22,500 bonus points ($110) if they spent another $460 within two weeks.
• The post sparked a spirited debate among shoppers with some agreeing with the idea of not spending unnecessarily, while others disagreed.
• An Everyday Rewards spokesperson said the program helps customers save big dollars on their yearly grocery bills.

We have to admit - Woolworths' Everyday Rewards program is a great way to save money on your weekly grocery shopping. However, it's important to be aware that spending more just to earn bonus points can actually end up costing you more than you save.

While earning bonus points can be tempting, it's essential to evaluate the overall cost of your shopping, as it's the total spend that really counts.

But as that one shopper said, if you're already spending more than a hundred dollars every week at Woolworths, then it might be worth it to get some bonus points in the end.

However, it's important to keep in mind that you should only spend more if it's practical and aligns with your regular shopping needs.

By being mindful of your spending habits and taking advantage of the Everyday Rewards program's offers and discounts, you can effectively save money on your weekly groceries without spending more than you need to.

If you're an Everyday Rewards member – or are thinking about signing up – rest assured that, with a few smart decisions here and there, you should have no problem receiving great bonuses and savings.

But don't forget, don't go spending even more money than you need to just to benefit from the rewards.

Seems when you use one of these offers, eg spend $125 for 2 weeks to get xx bonus points, then your next offer will be a higher spend and the next. Beat them at their own game and ignore the offers for a while and then the spend amount comes down again. My partner and I both have rewards cards so we change the card we use to suit and it works, the bonus offers get better again.

Just for two of us not worth bothering. I save in other ways but always checking the unit pricing and not falling for the weekly specials. Yes some are worthwhile but others are not. I found recently it was better to buy a larger size can of baked beans than the smaller one on special. I just decant what I do not want into a container and place in freezer until required. Easy to defrost in the microwave and then heat up.

I received delivery from Woolies y'day and was shorted 3 items and was sent an email informing me I would be reimbursed for 2 items. I rang and couldn't get past the chat bot's sheer programmed idiocy. And a water box was in shreds as if it was used as a football. How is that acceptable. Never again. Bye, bye Woolworths. See you never.

Often boosted products are unavailable & most of them I have ordered the week prior. So not a lot of advantage especially when one lives on their own.

I am a woolies rewards member and I use the points for Christmas. I find the best way to use the rewards
is to base it on what you normally get and only get extra when you get an extra bonus and will use it
within a certain time ( always check use by dates)

 

[Ricci]

Am I the only person to be completely happy with Woolies? I do all my shopping online, I boost only the items I need/want that week and leave my points till Christmas. I am happy with the deliveries I get, rarely do I have a problem and any that I have had have been quickly resolved in my favour. Maybe I'm easily pleased but I won't be changing my shopping habits any time soon.

 

[MindyMac]

As an Woollies Extra Rewards member it's a fact that Woollies do discriminate and offer some people Spend $80-$150 for next two weeks and get 2,000 - 4,500 Bonus Points, when others get the really Big Points like the 13,000 when all she had to do was spend $155 or more for two weeks. Can people not see the issues with that. Someone like myself get maybe $20-$40 worth of points and someone spends around $150 each week for two weeks and gets 13,000 points which is $100 plus 1,000 Points left in credit. Some are offered even more Points as well. Some of the Extra Rewards members get next-to-nothing. We all pay the annual fees. Some pay $59 up front and some choose to pay $7 monthly = $84 Yearly. Don't know why some do this. But Woollies legally can not discriminate. It's against the law. And yes, I have emailed them.

 

[Goodbloke]

Since my grand daughter started doing some casual hours at Woolies, it's logical to shop there as I am the driver / pickup person anyways. I boost the offers that I wiould normally buy, look at the individual prices on the tickets ( I shop in store only ) and take my time when shopping, never shop when I am hungry. I also shop at IGA for those items that Woolies don't seem to have ( my cat is very particular about her food ). Overall I am happy, the points accumulate, every now and the I use some and take $10 off my shopping at the checkout, have a chat to the checkout person, overall happy enough with Woolies. My store is BullCreek in WA.

 

[Ma-to-3]

Am I the only person to be completely happy with Woolies? I do all my shopping online, I boost only the items I need/want that week and leave my points till Christmas. I am happy with the deliveries I get, rarely do I have a problem and any that I have had have been quickly resolved in my favour. Maybe I'm easily pleased but I won't be changing my shopping habits any time soon.

I’m happy with them too. Just have to work their system to your advantage, the same with any system like this.

SDC members, have you signed up for any loyalty or rewards programs?

If you haven't, you're missing out: Woolworths' Everyday Rewards offers savings opportunities and bonus point deals that you can use in-store and online.

But a cautionary tale posted on Markdown Addicts Australia recently has reminded us all to be mindful when it comes to spending money to take advantage of offers.

It featured a Woolies customer's ‘boost’ deals that they received from Everyday Rewards – specifically, the offer to receive 22,500 bonus points if they spent a certain weekly amount at Woolworths.

'Pretty happy with that!' they wrote.

The shopper was two out of four weeks into a deal requiring them to ‘spend $155 at Woolworths each week for four weeks’ to receive 13000 bonus points when a new deal popped up. The latest deal required the shopper to ‘spend $230 at Woolworths each week for two weeks’ to earn 9500 bonus points.

Thus, at the end of the two weeks, if the shopper spent an additional $460 they would receive $110 in bonus points. Can you see the issue?

A fellow shopper responded to the post, warning others to be careful when committing to spending large amounts of cash in order to benefit from bonus points and offers.

'It's becoming ridiculous because if you're doing it just to get the rewards, then it's a waste of money, as some people are spending for the sake of it when they don't need it,' the shopper said.

And this point sparked a debate among numerous other shoppers, with some agreeing with the view and some disagreeing.

Those who agreed with the cautionary advice said that spending too much money to benefit from bonus points and offers wasn't a good idea, as the savings from these deals would be wiped away by the money that was spent to earn them.

'I agree, it is ridiculous. They do it so you shop there instead of elsewhere - but elsewhere might have better specials,' added another fellow shopper.

On the other hand, those who disagreed said that there was no pressure to take advantage of these offers and that it was also an opportunity to stock up on essential items without breaking the budget.

'Spending too much is bad, but spending a little more for a good reward is still fine, in my opinion, as long as you buy groceries and household stuff that you will be using in your home,' argued one Facebook user.

Representatives from Woolworths Everyday Rewards spoke out on the matter, reassuring shoppers that their program still helped customers achieve good savings on their yearly grocery bills.

'At Everyday Rewards, our most engaged members save hundreds of dollars each year by activating bonus point offers, shopping specials in their “my weekly picks” and redeeming fuel discounts,' an Everyday Rewards spokesperson said.

'Each week, Everyday Rewards members will receive a selection of individually tailored offers via the Everyday Rewards app. They can choose which offers to boost, based on what they plan to purchase that week, to maximise their savings at the checkout.'

Key Takeaways

• A Woolworths Everyday Rewards member has urged fellow shoppers to be cautious when using some of the program's bonus offers.
• The shopper was set to receive 22,500 bonus points ($110) if they spent another $460 within two weeks.
• The post sparked a spirited debate among shoppers with some agreeing with the idea of not spending unnecessarily, while others disagreed.
• An Everyday Rewards spokesperson said the program helps customers save big dollars on their yearly grocery bills.

We have to admit - Woolworths' Everyday Rewards program is a great way to save money on your weekly grocery shopping. However, it's important to be aware that spending more just to earn bonus points can actually end up costing you more than you save.

While earning bonus points can be tempting, it's essential to evaluate the overall cost of your shopping, as it's the total spend that really counts.

But as that one shopper said, if you're already spending more than a hundred dollars every week at Woolworths, then it might be worth it to get some bonus points in the end.

However, it's important to keep in mind that you should only spend more if it's practical and aligns with your regular shopping needs.

By being mindful of your spending habits and taking advantage of the Everyday Rewards program's offers and discounts, you can effectively save money on your weekly groceries without spending more than you need to.

But don't forget, don't go spending even more money than you need to just to benefit from the rewards.

I’m annoyed that they seem to help families with these offers and not singles. To spend that sort of money I’d need to be hosting a party for 20. And would break the bank.

SDC members, have you signed up for any loyalty or rewards programs?

If you haven't, you're missing out: Woolworths' Everyday Rewards offers savings opportunities and bonus point deals that you can use in-store and online.

But a cautionary tale posted on Markdown Addicts Australia recently has reminded us all to be mindful when it comes to spending money to take advantage of offers.

It featured a Woolies customer's ‘boost’ deals that they received from Everyday Rewards – specifically, the offer to receive 22,500 bonus points if they spent a certain weekly amount at Woolworths.

'Pretty happy with that!' they wrote.

The shopper was two out of four weeks into a deal requiring them to ‘spend $155 at Woolworths each week for four weeks’ to receive 13000 bonus points when a new deal popped up. The latest deal required the shopper to ‘spend $230 at Woolworths each week for two weeks’ to earn 9500 bonus points.

Thus, at the end of the two weeks, if the shopper spent an additional $460 they would receive $110 in bonus points. Can you see the issue?

I boost (Woolies) and activate (Flybuys) everything that comes in the emails, then, if I spend the dollars or buy the promoted product, great, I get the points. If I don't, which is more often the case, then no harm done to my budget.

 

[Colette 3799]

Am I the only person to be completely happy with Woolies? I do all my shopping online, I boost only the items I need/want that week and leave my points till Christmas. I am happy with the deliveries I get, rarely do I have a problem and any that I have had have been quickly resolved in my favour. Maybe I'm easily pleased but I won't be changing my shopping habits any time soon.

With both Woolies rewards and Coles Flybuys I activate every offer and if I happen to buy them or reach their shopping targets all well and good but I don’t shop any differently or buy anything I don’t need To gain points. I save my Woolies rewards for Christmas and use my Flybuys at Christmas and Easter. Online shopping with both stores have rarely caused any problems that couldn’t be fixed straight away.

I do the same. As other people have said when there only two of you (both pensioners) you do not spend as much.

Or pensioners. Who have a limited budget.

Lucky shopper, being able to spend $150/week. I cant even do that a fortnight!

If you are a person who likes to travel, you can convert your Rewards points to Frequent Flyer points. If you want to use your FF points to purchase goods, you can do that too. By activating the Booster points on the items you buy every week, you can really boost those FF points. In one month last year, I received 4000 FF points. I don't always buy all the items I boost, but those booster points can make a huge difference, and the 1000 points are transferred automatically to Qantas FF when you reach a spend total of $2000 over several weeks (this is where the booster points really kick in!).
