Thanks for the update. Planning to stay there pre-Christmas and was not expecting it to be the full IC experience. Its been many years since we stayed there (as a Hilton obviously) and we expecting it to still be very much in the same condition as it would have been when exiting Hilton branding...

My normal go-to purchase for these cards is via RACQ, where the standing offer is 3% on Wish, 4% on Essentials, and 5% on BWS/Dan Murphies. So I generally go for Essentials and that covers the groceries, dept store stuff and fuel. Unfortunately, no better deal offered to Qld Seniors that I have...

Surely you can drive to the east coast to fill up - they often have better pricing than local Ampol servos :P

I was referring to the reduced flexibility of the Essentials card, which can only be used at WW, BigW and EG. Wish is more flexible, but generally has less discount when purchasing

My go-to is the Essentials card - can be used at Woolworths supermarkets, Big-W and EG Fuel, and available regularly at 4% discount. While Wish is certainly the most flexible, it also generally comes with lowest discount. It comes down to whether the extra 1% discount is worth the reduced...

I wonder what will become of the ability to use Woolworth's gift cards such as Wish Card and Essentials Card for purchases at EG Australia branded fuel outlets? These cards can be used at EG but not at Ampol Foodary locations. We use this all the time since our local EG is also regularly the...

And I guess the same message stands for an apple as a tomato from one of my kid's favourite kids songs: To market, to market went my brother Jim When someone threw a tomato at him Tomatoes are soft and don't break the skin But this one killed Jim. It was wrapped in a tin.

Yep, @QF WP I remember that focus group session well. Welcome back @crazydave98 and do hang around. I am sure AFF is a better place with you here amongst us.

Looks like you may need a saddle and bridle and ride the pony to your destination.

Interesting that the dog was allocated 1B and you were allocated 1A. In Australia, service dogs are always allocated a window seat, which is done to ensure no other passenger needs to step over the dog to get to the aisle. Service dog gets its own boarding pass and seat assignment, even in...

And when you consider the value of purchasing the points, the free cases of wine that they throw in are generally great value.

If you are concerned about the connection in Perth, plan to travel to Perth the day before and overnight there. This is especially true if your ASP-PER flight is not on the same ticket as your PER-LHR flight, as a delay on the inbound to PER will result in you being a no-show passenger for the...

My teacher told me not to worry about spelling because in the future there will be autocorrect. And for that I am eternally grapefruit.

It will be good to have a decent IHG property on the Sunny Coast.

And plenty have been burned by their misleading statements about airfare prices and bookings. https://www.accc.gov.au/media-release/webjet-to-pay-9m-in-penalties-for-misleading-statements-about-airfare-prices-and-bookings

Yeah ... Nahhh

I do have about 8 weeks until end of year, but still sitting about 50K short of PC+. I generally earn around 10-15K/month from just living/existing, so was looking for a simple 20K-ish to drop me over the line. So long as the 10% discount code I was provided stacks with PC+ 10% discount, then...

well, you got a better outcome than me. Last Friday I ordered some points that were supposed to come with a free case of "Elite Red Cellar Dozen" wines. Today (Tuesday) I received an email saying the order has been cancelled as they are "out of stock", and provided me a 10% off discount code...

I doubt they will stack. Best option may be to place the minimum order that triggers the FIRSTORDER bonus, and then use your $50 voucher for a second purchase of points-with-a-free-case-of-wine.

Indeed. I would prefer to get the 2 x transferable lounge invites (that I can give to family/friends to use) rather than Qantas Club membership which I get from virtue of having attained Lifetime Gold status. As it stands, the only additional benefit of PC+ over PC for someone like me with...
