Woolworths scrambles to close loophole after shoppers register multiple cards to gain points
A loophole in its new loyalty programme has seen some shoppers create burner accounts and claim hundreds of dollars in points to spend in-store.
Good on them, I hate these BS loyalty schemes, and typically avoid any store that offers them.
Milk it for all it's worth I say.
Boosted offers were tailored to the individual and based on what shoppers had purchased in the past. To get the points, you need to hit the "Boost" button online or on the app before you shop and include the product in your groceries.
Yeah I'm out. What kinda nonsense is this. What happened to the good old days, where companies would harvest and sell your data without you having to do anything?
Exactly, the amount of effort people will go to to save a buck is ridiculous. There's a power company that lets you buy power in advance, with all these discounts. It's been explained to me a few times, and always seems like far more trouble than it's worth. Same with AA smartfuel etc.
Some people really need to think about how much their time is worth.
That last part reminds me I saw this today.
Kiwis seem to love a gimmick.
Countdown Lego? New World kitchenware? A myriad of power and mobile companies with “free hours” and other schemes?
And it’s all designed to give the illusion of savings for the customer.
I'm not gonna defend Countdown but I'm pretty sure there extra points above the standard per order earn rate.
Adding some gamification of their loyalty scheme.
