Simple way how you can knock $10 off your next Coles shop as grocery giant promises to help Aussies facing budget stress

Coles shoppers are in the line to claim an instant $10 off their next shop at one supermarket chain – with bonus deals on a range of custom items also being rolled out through the month.

It’s the simple Coles hack being rolled out to help struggling Aussies, with the supermarket giant revealing how shoppers can instantly claim $10 the next time they hit the checkout.

The supermarket giant has announced Flybuys members across the country will be able to redeem a $10 discount at their next Coles supermarket, Liquorland and First Choice Market stores if they have at least 2000 Flybuys points on their account

The massive instant saving scheme being rolled out by the grocery giant includes additional points on mincemeat and a range of other grocery items.

Coles revealed there will be a 10x bonus point handout on those items, allowing people to easily rack up the 2000 required.

Until June 11, there will also be a 10x bonus points earned on all mince meat, and 10x points on a selected range of grocery items until June 25.

With the cold and flu season in full swing, anyone down with the sniffles can claim 5x points on cold and flu products such as Panadol, Nurofen, Betadine, Vicks, Difflam, Swisse and Cenovis.

The special runs until July 23.

It follows a successful trial in selected states, with the program now rolling out nationwide.

The conditions for Aussies to get their hands on this include having to spend a minimum of $10 in their in-store shop, and it can only be redeemed once a day in each of the three stores.

So if a member had 6000 points, equally up to $30 they redeem $10 once in Coles and once at both liquor stores.

Coles Chief Customer Officer, Amanda McVay said this was the supermarket’s way of helping to keep customers within their budgets.

“We know making the most out of their weekly shop through Flybuys is important to our customers,” she said.

“We are excited to now offer an instant $10 off for in-store purchases … to give them a simpler way to redeem points at the checkout.

“Millions of Flybuys members currently hold balances of more than 2,000 points and we’re making it easier than ever for them to redeem these points for money off their in-store shop.”

Current Flybuys members can scan their cards to earn points off of their shop at Coles, Coles Express, First Choice Liquor Market, Kmart, Liquorland, Officeworks, Target and mycar.

When a person reaches 2000, they can turn those points into Flybuys Dollars to use at the check out.

What makes this different is that you won’t need to convert them into dollars, they can be redeemed straight away.
