Nice - was thinking of buying a new TV so subject to pricing this might be a goer...

futaris · 20th November 2007, 05:59 PM

Yep. Should be good for the boxing day sales this year...

Thanks mick; may make my purchases more interesting this year.

Hmmm... what an HHonors point worth? In oz, 30K gets you an ~$180 room.

I give up.

The site directs me to login, then "go to opt-in bonus".

Where on earth is the link for "opt-in bonus"?????

There's a PDF link on that page:

Thanks mick. It is a shame I will not be able to make use of the promotion. My parents purchased a $2000 stove from Bing Lee recently.

You need to go the rewards page - click on the link Your Membership Rewards Balance, and the link to opt-in bonus is on the left hand menu there.

Beware, many of these merchants probably charge a surcharge when you use AMEX.

Two months ago I purchased electrical goods from Clive Peeters and they tried to slug me with a surcharge( 3 or 4%???) when I flashed my Amex.

I refused to pay the surcharge and insisted on using my Amex to make the purchase or the deal was off.

They accepted.
