  • Does WH still honour in store price match if an item has an existing bundle deal?

    • +1

      In my experience at my local Warehouse the pricematch goes through fine even if they have the 2 for $12 bundle deal but I normally only buy 1, however a couple weeks back I went and purchased two and the operator had to price match it as 2 individual items or something along those lines because it wouldn't pricematch due to the existing bundle so may depend per store or what the operator knows/is willing to do.

        A very long time, to be completely honest bought them to give the majority away as gifts lol.

        • Would you be able to share reciept for price promise?

          • +1

            @wildchild: Later on sure !!

            • @Hotdoglord: Thanks i checked with the warehouse and they say screenshot has to be dated so hopefully receipt helps with that!

              • @wildchild: Nice, you can keep downloading the screenshot every day so there's a timestamp on the image and use it hopefully forever in the future?

    One can only assume that this is the price the supermarkets buy the blocks for then mark it up 120%

    • Their cost is probably $2 a piece max, they are selling between $6 and $7.

      • +1

        Cost won’t be that cheap on Whittakers family blocks mate!

  • +1

    LOL its a pricing error! But get in quick. I drove to Fresh choice thinking they have more variety than warehouse. But when i got there, to my shock the price is 5.69 as with the other stores.
    I quickly went to warehouse and price matched.
    I assume this will be updated tomorrow morning or there after.

    Get in quick!

    I woke up today not needing 22 bars of Whittakers but here I am, with 22 blocks of chocolate - Priced matched warehouse sylvia park no issues

  • Oh no partys over

    • +1

      Someone at FreshChoice has realised just how close the number ‘2’ is to a ‘5’ on the numeric keypad. Whoops!

  • Was on my way over to the warehouse! :/

  • Price is back to 5.49.

    I have never done a price match before. But I found the Tnc on the warehouse website. Does it mean we have 7days to price match start from today eventhough the price has reverted back to 5.49?

    *I have the screenshot of 2.49 price.

    "Product must be in stock at both our store and the competitor’s store at the time of the price promise request and must take place within 7 days of the price being advertised by the competitor."

    • At my local warehouse they don't really verify the legitimacy of the deal and just take whatever I show them on my phone at face value, I could probably get away with an edited price or screenshot but I wouldn't do or recommend that.

      It's interesting because the T&C's say in brackets (current and dated), however my interpretation is that 'current' conflicts with the '7 days of purchase or lower price being advertised.'

      I'd just try my luck if I were you.

      • Just realised they don't sell dark almond. Which is my favourite whittaker's 😂

  • Damn missed out when I went to price match haha

  • Anyone got a screenshot they can upload? I already bought but wanted to show a friend 😅

  • +4

    Successful in matching today at the p.north warehouse using pictures

    • Ill be in Palmy on Friday ill try do the same hopefully it will still work.

      Did you just go to the counter or self checkout and ask for someone to come over and price match?

      • +2

        I went to a check out. The lady did ask with every scan if it was the same price (got 14 blocks). She confused herself with the current store deal of 2 for $12 and checked with a manager if i could still get a price match.

        I also picked up some blocks from the whanganui store

    • That's awesome. I'm surprised they don't need proof of date?

    • +1

      same here price match with the screenshot, score!!!

  • Buying like it's 1999

    It's always a battle at my local store to get a price promise on groceries outside of my area, so don't normally bother, but I thought it was definitely worth it for $2.49 Whittakers.

    She argued the point even after showing her the dated screenshots and mentioning the price promise guarantee within 7 days. She then proceeded to say she has to be able to see it live on her device. I then pulled up the PP on TWH site and read this to her:

    •Product must be in stock at both our store and the competitor’s store at the time of the price promise request and must take place within 7 days of the price being advertised by the competitor.

    She still told me it's not right… But it's hard to argue when it's right there. I ended up with x10 bars in total and spent an extra $140 on other groceries that I otherwise wouldn't have.

    I don't know why retail employees take it so personally… She walked away in a very grumpy mood and possibly ruined her day. I walked away happy and said thank you.

    Thanks OP.

    • It's just ego, she'll probably learn to take it easy on the day she got made redundant by TWH…haha

      I don't know why retail employees take it so personally

      Yeah neither, not like it gets docked from your pay or something. Could be pressure from management or corporate, unlikely but who knows.

  • Bought 20 yesterday and showed the lady the screenshots. Tried to go back and buy another 20 but got another lady and she was strict wanting to check the actual website and declined me.

    • which store?

      • Lunn Ave Warehouse, I should have waited for the other lady to become available, I had a feeling the other lady was strict at the customer service desk

        • Be grateful for your 20 blocks. 40 is just overkill. Please do not abuse such deals until they decide to take the 'pricematch' away :(

  • Anyone who was able to get it from New Lynn store?

  • +1

    I managed to price match at TWH Albany, they just looked at the screenshots from Hartaru and no questions asked. Got 20 blocks too, stoked.
