I joined when we first arrived and my company was a participant.

Over 4 years, we got precisely nothing in the way of rewards. However we then opened a Coles Meyer card (or whatever it is now) and get heaps of rewards. In the last 3 years I have had a number of $100 Coles giftcards....we always pay for holidays/bills/everything on card, so rewards do mount up (at last!)

Use an eligible NAB Credit Card linked to your FlyBuys account and you can earn an extra 1 FlyBuys point for every $5 you spend.

Rewards you get with Flybuys:

2,500 points = $20 FlyBuys Gift Card
6,250 points = $50 FlyBuys Gift Card
12,500 points = $100 FlyBuys Gift Card

Basically spend $31,250 and get $100 back.
I have never been that enamoured by Flybuys....

I much prefer the Woolworths shopping group option...
Spend $13,250 and get $100 back,
or $235 by spending the $31,250 in the above example.

I've just redeemed my 27,500 points accumulated over 3 years for a $220 gift gard...How much did I bloody spend to get that.....

$68,750... scary

Generally performed by the Red Arrows or some such 'aerobatics' team . . . or perhaps Concorde . . . although I have seen them done with a Lancaster bomber . . . at special occassions and that sort of thing . . . .
