Multiple WR cards strategy - can it work?

[goldenhorn]

I've seen a few travel bloggers say they use multiple Woolworths Rewards/flybuys cards as a strategy for shifting the earn to a different card and then waiting for an email offer of increased points to entice you back.

Mr GH and I do this already with WW (no Coles close to us) where I just shop at Aldi or we don't scan our cards at WW and wait for an email offer to go back to WW.

Is there a way to order multiple cards for the one household to switch the spend between them? I am thinking the linking the same QF or VF account to the card is the sticking point.

Or can you have multiple accounts and link the same FF account to them?

One FF account to one Flybuys or Woolworths Reward account.

In theory both rewards programs only allow one membership per person.

Yeah, that's what I thought. So I guess what the bloggers are talking about is using other family members and then pooling points.

i have 5 accounts all with different variations of my name, had it for years, works well for me, however, I dont rotate them very often for shopping ,

I think this works best if everyone in your household has their own card and you rotate them. (It works better for larger families..)

Our family members get so many offers I rarely do a transaction where someone doesn't have a targeted offer. If there are no offers for anyone I default to my card to increase the gap length between usage of the other cards.

My parents see this with their cards.

I live 25m from a Woolworths (recently changed to a big Metro so expensive) so do lots of small shops only. They keep sending me offers only for $100 shops which I've never done at that store.

And I'd certainly do it at a different store that I can drive to.
