I have a United I drive past every day. Should I switch (in the hope they stay in business)?

They provide Myer One so I won't lose that from Caltex.

United do Myer One? If that is so I will be going back to them.

Sorry, I was wrong. They've stopped it: United will no longer provide Myer One points
The one I was talking about still has the sign out the front...

Used my last 20 cent / 10 points per litre offer. . Tried my very best but ended up 7L short from my maximum quota of 150L... but it was still a very good points earn of 1,430 QFF (all paid on a discounted wish card) and both a GST and tax deductions makes it a very sweet deal indeed.

But now with only the 2 points per litre I'm not sure I'll bother. I think its better taking the saving and using it for the surcharge costs when paying GST and PAYG to the ATO where points can cost less than a cent each.

I hope that wasn't me who turned you into a tax paying fiend shintaro10x.
Yesterday I corrupted one of my brothers by letting him earn several hundred thousand Kris Miles in a day because he was dangerously close to running out of miles.
It was so hot in Perth last weekend I didn't bother picking up the free points on offer from BigW or Woolies and I think that heat is hitting Adelaide and Melbourne about now.
Kris miles are the best so you might enjoy running up some on Westpac or Citi to get those RAA sourced Woolies Wish cards.

Cove, yes its warm here today, and going to be all this week... Hopefully Perth puts on some nice weather for my visit next week. Paying tax can be fun, up the front of the bus kind of fun

I'll take your advice and use my new citi card at the RAA, after being finally accepted by Citi I'll be looking for tips on maximising their program... and using Wish cards for WOW bonus offers is still a nice double whammy...!

Just been to BWS to take up the 500 points offer before it finishes. And get this cove I had a really good chat with the checkout operator when using my wish card for payment. Long story short, I get the same discount at BWS as he does, I get 5% Discount at dan murphy but he doesn't. He gets 4 cents per litre on fuel using his staff card, I get close to double that with my wish cards. It was a good lesson for him and he now knows he needs to check out the cost for joining the RAA... cove, you and me know its a no brainer if he wants the "nobody gets discount at dans" discount...

Now we wait to see what they do to stem the tide of people going to other fuel sellers. Finished my 20c voucher last week and now have no vouchers sitting in my account

But I do have a Shell 4c saving to use now thanks to Mrs QF WP shopping this week

 

[Major]

As there is nothing going on with WOW fuel vouchers I used an 8c Coles voucher last week and will prob continue using Coles unless WOW can come up with something

 

[DeKa]

I've got one left - 28 Jan - then I'm not buying fuel at WW/Caltex anymore.

 

[whatmeworry]

Oh bloody hell!!!
Just filled up today to utilse a 15c (7.5 points) voucher before fuel went up in Melbourne.
Get my receipt and it says "Rewards Offline". Just instead of no reward (points to be awarded later) being applied I get a discount, which i don't want.
Just shot off an email to EDR. Hopefully I get my points.
Not happy Jan!

Give them a call. They're usually pretty good about that sort of thing.

Well I emailed them, but they told me they only can give me a new fuel voucher. Well my voucher expired 7 days ago, so I called them up and they reinstated my voucher for another 28 days. Oh well looks like I am the last person with a half decent voucher.

Ok now I need to run down my tank and and wait till the next time MEL is the lowest point of fuel cycle and hopefully fill up at 100L to 150L. Then show my fuel receipt at my local supermarket will give 4 cents back per litre up to 100L ($4 saving).

No discount @ BP so usually Shell it is.

In Brisbane there is 1 single BP station near a Drakes that will offer a discount if you have a Drakes receipt of over a $30 spend.
It might be worth seeing if your local BP does the same since I think there are Drakes in Adelaide.

What is Drakes?

 

[Buzzard]

What is Drakes?

Grocery outlet similar to IGA. In the past I have found them to be as expensive as IGA too.

 

[Rallygirl]

Further OT again: Yes Drakes can be expensive, but it is a South Australian chain that also operates in Qld. For me it is the only source here of Fruchocs and Yoyo biscuits so I do visit them occasionally.

Now back to EDR talk….

speaking of Fruchocs, anyone know where they can be purchased in NSW? Mr Natalie us originally from SA and loves them.

You have gone a bit OT given the answer - at Coles

Chocolate Coated Apricot Balls | National

They were renamed for sales outside of SA

But they still have 'Fruchocs' on the back, so rest assured, they are the same thing. FWIW, I was the first person to arrange importation of Fruchocs into Vic in 1999 (excluding Mildura).

We've never seen them in Coles, maybe I need to widen my horizons! We are ok at the moment as Mr Natalie's parents brought some from SA at Christmas.

Now back to the OT!

When I go to ADL I take a cold bag and come home with Haigh's, Fruchocs (before I found Drakes), Arnotts Yo Yo biscuits and Fritz. I didn't last week as it was too hot.
