Get 5% off at Coles Supermarkets

Published on January 28, 2018 11:49 pm, by Jen Bakker

For a few years, we have been sharing the love of WISH e-gift cards and saving 5% on your shopping across the Woolworths brands. At the same time, we’ve kept looking for ways to do the same at Coles.

After a few years out of this space, we notice that Coles Supermarkets have re-introduced e-Gift Cards with a 5% discount to AGL customers.

This is great news for Coles shoppers! Before you log into your AGL Rewards portal and stock up, there are a few things you might want to know.

Credit Card payment incurs a surcharge:

• Paying by Credit Card will incur a 1% surcharge and your total savings will be 4%
• Paying by EFT/Direct Deposit will not incur a surcharge and your total savings will be 5%

This is what you will need to know to buy your e-Coles Gift Cards:

• Your AGL Rewards number
• The email address you registered with AGL Rewards

These are the steps you will need to follow to purchase your e-Gift Cards:

• Sign in to AGL Rewards
• Select Search Rewards
• Either search for Coles or Select Browse Gift Cards
• Click on the Cart and use the drop-down box to select the value of your Coles Gift Card
• In your cart enter your address details and payment method
• If paying by credit card, note that you will be paying an additional $1 per $100, enter your details and complete the purchase
• If paying by direct deposit note down the payment account and instructions although you will also receive an email confirming them
• Finalise your payment and your E-Gift cards will be emailed you.

Want to know how much you can save?

Head to your MoneyBrilliant spending report and search for Coles transactions. Check how much you spent last month, so far this year or last year and multiply that by 5% to work out the discount you could have received by purchasing Gift Cards before shopping.

For example, spending an average of $100 per week using a gift card, is a savings of $5 per week and $260 per year.

There is currently a whole heap of discounted e-Gift Cards available through AGL Rewards. Here are just some that might save you some money:

• 5% off Wish – for use at Woolworths, Dan Murphys, Big W, BWS and Cellarmasters
• 8% off David Jones
• 5% off JB Hi-Fi
• 10% off Priceline
• 5% off Myer
• 5% off Target
• 5% off K-Mart
• 5% off The Good Guys

Where else can I get discounted Coles Gift Cards?

Just recently we’ve noticed some other spots you can get discounted Coles Gift Cards:

• RACQ members can access gift cards at a 4% discount. Members will find them on the Member Benefits/Discounts page
• NIB Rewards customers will get a 5% discount. If you’re a member, you’ll find them on the Rewards page
