Update: Big W have acknowledged that they made a mistake with the advertising for this promotion in that it shows the $50 Ultimate Students gift card when only the $30 denomination of that particular card was meant to be 10% off. However, per a comment below the $50 card should still receive the discount.

Hi, would you still earn normal accrual points with Everyday Rewards for purchasing these cards?
No, you don’t earn the normal Everyday Rewards points on these. And good luck finding any. The guy in front of me at Top Ryde literally cleared the shelf, buying more than 50 Ultimate Him cards.
Hey, thanks for posting this! I found the offer a bit confusing.
The banner shows the $50 Ultimate Students card, but the text says the deal is only for the $30 card and even notes that the $50 isn’t included. That doesn’t quite line up with my experience though. I actually picked up a $50 Students card at Big W today for $45, so it definitely was discounted.
What I’m not sure about is whether the $30 card is also included. At my store, the $50 cards had been cleared out (I was lucky to find just one mixed in by chance), while plenty of $30 cards were still left on the rack.
Just thought I’d share in case others are wondering the same! 🙂
Thanks for sharing. That’s good to know.
can’t find the card in Melbourne, sigh
Ultimate Him gift cards will be 10% off at ALDI soon if that helps.
