Misleading Woolworth Premium Cookware campaign

[jonboixxx]

I ended up with a saucepan after they checked out the back. One of the long term staff said the delivery to stores was sporadic and disorganised. This particular store had a dribble of stock and then pallets of stock which they had to hide in corners due to lack of space. I assume there's a proliferation of flippers in kitchen Australia, as there were limited pans left and hundreds of flippers a few weeks ago. Now per previous comments, nothing left in most stores.

I personally rarely participate in them but I think its normal human psychology for people to be quite active in it.

Ive learnt very recently that if you really want these products, to wait after the promo and go on facebook marketplace, always people selling them off, quite cheap too

I've also bought the products from tk Maxx before.

Here is one at a $10 discount compared to outright purchase.

And here is another one for touting the "worth" at over $400 when the Woolies promotion price if purchased outright is $244, but selling at $200

Fissler, but the ones promoted by WoW is not their usual range.

I was interested in the Coles glassware/wine glasses recently.

Was 1 credit short, + couldnt find any stock.

Months after the promo people still selling the $25 RRP glases for like $10 -$15 on fbmp, feels kind of stupid doing all that chasing during the promo

And similarly of course, no need to fly J on QF to get the Pyjamas

I was also trying to snag another item, dropped $300 at Woolworths and lost out on more credits. They're tuned into our psychology, getting us to irrationally spend oodles when we could get the same or a better item without the outlay.

I recall both majors tweaked these promotions to make them longer and more realistic to redeem items after a bigger backlash previously.

Issuing of the Cookware Credits was always going to end on 23 June.
As for stock issues, this happens with every single one of these promotions, and it will probably happen with the Coles container promotion. In the last few weeks people start redeeming like crazy.,
Best off to redeem along the way, as best you can.

… or while stocks last …

I don't think its unreasonable to expect to still have stock on the day the earning credit capability ended, do you?

As long as we are prepared to do a run around to a few stores to look for the leftovers, maybe.

I got the large frying pan last week in Northern Brisbane. I had 80 credits so not enough for a wok, but I'm happy with the frying pan. It's better quality than the one I had before and big enough to make 4 pieces of French toast at once!

My Wow has 3 check out lanes. but only one isnever in use.
The Fissler boxes were stored on one of the lanes - up to height of the conveyor belt when I redeemed.
Ill check again

But is it worth driving all over town?

I think WoW should convert all the left over cookware credits to EDR points
