Gift card offer 💃🏻

20× points on TCN gift cards at Woolworths

From 1-7 October 2025, Woolies is running a 20× Everyday Rewards points promo on selected TCN gift cards (Teen, Him, Her, Home, The Active Card + more). These cards work at stores including JB Hi-Fi, Rebel, BCF, The Iconic, Sephora, Barbeques Galore and Supercheap Auto.

🛒 How it works

  • Head in-store to Woolworths and buy eligible TCN gift cards

  • Scan your Everyday Rewards card at checkout

  • Earn 20× bonus points with no activation required

  • Redeem the gift cards at participating retailers (some are in-store only)

  • Points convert to Qantas Points (2:1)

📱 Example: JB Hi-Fi

Been eyeing off the new iPhone 17 Pro? It’s available at JB Hi-Fi for $1,899. Because Woolworths caps variable-load TCN Teen cards at 2 per day, you’ll need to split the purchase across 2 days:

  • Day 1: Buy 2 × $500 TCN Teen variable-load cards = $1,000

  • Day 2: Buy 1 × $500 TCN Teen card + 1 × $399 TCN Teen card = $899

  • Total = $1,899


20× points = 37,980 Everyday Rewards points → 18,990 Qantas Points


💡 Why it’s worth it

With 18,990 Qantas Points, you could book:

  • Return economy flights Melbourne ↔ Sydney

  • Return economy flights Gold Coast ↔ Sydney

  • A one way economy flight Melbourne → Brisbane

⚠️ Things to keep in mind

TCN cards are mostly accepted in-store only (no online redemption at JB Hi-Fi for example).

Purchase limits: Most TCN cards are capped at 10 per day, but variable-load $20-500 TCN Teen, $100 TCN Gift, and $50/$100 TCN Restaurant cards are capped at 2 per day.

Is it worth it 👀

TripADeal are offering a bonus 25,000 Qantas Points on holiday packages

We jumped in with a PSA last week because this deal was too good not to share early. If you book before 11:59PM, Thursday 2 October, you can get the extra 5,000 points. If not, don’t stress because the main offer is still running until Thursday 16 October for 20,000 Qantas Points.

🛒 How it works

  • Book a TripADeal holiday before 16 October → get 20,000 bonus points

  • Book before 2 October → additional 5,000 bonus points

  • Earn the standard 3 Qantas Points per $1 spent on the total booking

  • No minimum spend (unless using Points or Points + Pay)

💡 What it’s worth

With 20,000 bonus Qantas Points, you could book:

  • Return economy flights Melbourne ↔ Sydney

  • A one way economy flight Melbourne ↔ Perth

  • A one way international flight Sydney → Fiji

If you’re able to grab the extra 5,000 points (25,000 total), you could book:

  • A one way international flight Sydney/Melbourne → Bali

⚠️ Reminder

A couple of things to keep in mind: the bonus points only go to the person who makes the booking, you’ll need to be a Qantas Frequent Flyer member, and the points can take up to 8 weeks after travel to land. And of course, no points if you cancel.

💡 Verdict

When you actually add it up, the Incredible China package is an insane deal. For $999 you’re getting return international flights, an internal flight, 8 nights’ accommodation, daily breakfasts and guided tours. Then on top of all that, you’re pocketing 20,000-25,000 Qantas Points.

It’s one of the cheapest ways to lock in both an amazing trip and a big points haul. If you’ve been on the fence about booking a holiday, this is one of those rare opportunities where the maths really adds up in your favour.
