EDR Targeted Bonus Point Promotions

[albatross710]

Some people had been activating additional offers by changing the numbers in the targeted activation links that EDR were sending each week.

As of this week I notice Woolies have fixed that little loophole. Instead of the offers being a nice sequential 23505, 23506, 23507 etc.

Now, they consist of a few more characters....E201206148_E210912MISSA_W

No more offers arrived at our household and I'm not impressed with the ones that came yesterday.

My friend got an offer for 150 points for $40 across various fresh food sections. I'll only be doing a small shop at WW this week and I'm considering swiping my friends temporary card on the purchase as it will have some fresh food in it. WW/EDR will think that no-one from our household has been shopping there and they might improve the offers for the following week.

Of course, this is just my opinion. Officially I have no idea how the targeting system works. It might give me more offers, it might give me less offers. I think I might take the risk.

50	bonus points

When you spend $5
or more on baby care
items this week

Do they know something we don't

Another one for us just fresh in the inbox...

Looks like we were getting them all at the same time. Ours arrived 4.04pm and 4.43pm (Qld time of course)

Same offer as shintaro10x for me. 250 points for $30 spend at Woolworths and BWS. I should be taking that one up.

I'm a littlleunderwhelmed by this weeks offer 250 points for $30 spend aBWS and $30 pend at Woolies

$30 at ww and $30 at bws this week for 250pts

+5. Mrs LW got that one as well - a given for us...but she doesn't need 2 weeks

I don't know the fine print of either of these offers but my interpretation is that the two offers you have mentioned can be "stacked" the way you have proposed. I love stacking offers as well.

Mrs LW also got a 250 bonus pts for a $50 WOW spend online. Checking the WOW&BWS joint offer above, it can include online. Stacking time .

No offers for me or the mini's ... again

My wife was thinking this is a good gig...until I reminded her that I transfer the points to my account every year

we started our Vegan adventure last week, our shop at woolies has reduced by over $100, it will be interetsing to see if new offers start arriving.

Markis10jr got a 50 point per macro item, but limited to two items, somehow I think the days of multiple time use for Macro and Select could be over?

I got this one also. Was all excited when I saw it until I read:

Offer applies to Everyday Rewards cardholder xx_xx_xx_xx_ and can only be redeemed twice during the offer period.

As far as I can tell, the "loophole" never worked in the first place. But others may have different results. If anyone did get it working but didn't put it on the forum for fear of the world finding out, PM me. I just want to know, tbh.

If this is the first bonus offer you have received I suggest you take it up. It shows you are interested in bonus offers. I don't know how targeting works but I think EDR look for patterns of what you are interested in. Good luck at getting better offers.

Agreed. I recently managed some new family members onto the EDR bonus trail, and because we 'missed' the emails of the first family member to join, we missed some pretty good offers, and we have since (April) not had any new ones (but no spending either on the account). For the second member, we took up some offers that fitted our family's spending pattern and that family member still gets offers. The third member is below 18 and never got any offers, interestingly?

wooo hoo. My son who has been establishing a shopping profile for a couple of weeks has a choice of 100 bonus points or 10c per litre off petrol when he spends $30 this week. His first bonus offer. I reckon he can make the 10c per litre off petrol worth more.
Things I have learned here:
-it did indeed take a couple of weeks of shopping to elicit the first exclusive offer. I feel like I have caught a fish. I guess the WW computer feels the same
-and there is no way I am letting the offer pass

Is it just me ? Or do you have to fight Woolies for the bonus points?
I am beginning to wonder if it's all worth it?
I am no better off shopping at Woolies than Coles ( points wise)


It is I, Leclerc !

I have had the same problem so I got on their everyday rewards site and whinged a couple of times, now the points are there every week . Coincidence maybe ?

Probably not a coincidence

Yes, I often experience failure to post bonus points even though the 'principal' points seem to be posted quite quickly. I've had to ring up several times, once being told by Everyday Rewards I had to ring Woolies online (the missing points were in relation to an online shopping incentive) only to be told, no, I had to ring Everyday Rewards. Three calls and wait times of around 8 mins each plus repeated conversations meant it was a very big investment for a mere 250 points!

 

[Natalie_B]

I've never had a problem with points posting previously, until the last 6 weeks or so.

100 points for $30+ in one transaction at Woolies

Might let that one go through to the keeper, 200 points and I would think about it.

Why? That is just about perfect and easily achievable and no conditions attached other than $30 spend.

Reading some of the posts in this thread and it would appear some people will only be happy if they receive 1,000 bonus points for $30 spend every week. It may be like that sometimes but that will be the exception not the rule.

No of course not JohnK!

For me, $5 offers for 50 points is far more attractive, purely because I don't do the shopping in our house (Dad/Mum do, and Dad has his own EDR card). As a consequence spending $30 at woolies is quite difficult...

I was kind of thinking a long a different track to most here - I was thinking if I left it for a week or two, they might up the offer a bit or something to lure me back. Seems the thinking here is to take it though - so I shall

I've been monitoring my points on everdayrewards.com.au to make sure theyre getting allocated, they normally credit to the QFF once a week. As far as I can tell they are pretty accurate. Key points are making sure you activate the offer (I do it twice) and meet the conditions of the offer, sometimes when the offer is complex we put those groceries into a separate basket and check them through to make sure the spending limit has been reached.

 

[JohnK]

Yes take the offer ,get your 8cpl petrol voucher which you have converted to ffpoints (4pts/lt) and pay with your 5% discounted wishcard, not so bad now. Works here in vic anyway.

Is there some sort of condition attached to 8c off/litre? I have not seen one of them on any of the 4 accounts for a long time.

8c is standard at the moment for $30 spend.

 

[Natalie_B]

I'm not sure that 8c is standard in NSW?
