You collected the points by constantly scanning your card and activating your boosters.
Woolworths Rewards is a free program that allows you to earn points and boosters for each store.
For every 2,000 points, which is about $200, you can get $10 off a store.
Once a week Woolworths releases boosters on certain items, this allows you to increase your points by purchasing them.
To do this, you must select Boost Item in the Rewards app. Each dollar is usually worth one point, but if you upgrade an item, you can earn up to 10 points per dollar.
The young woman said she only started collecting points in January and saved $320 in points for Christmas.
Aine is very ‘grateful’ for the savings and defended her passion for bargain hunting.
“Many of you will think that this is just what moms and aunts will do, but if it saves you some money, then go ahead,” she said.
“I saved 320 reward points and used 300 to buy them all, which made me pay just 15 cents out of pocket.”
“Woolworths will always have a few sale days, so I’m always on the lookout.”
He advised checking all expiration dates before purchasing the discounted chocolate.
He also told his followers to sign up for the show now to prepare for the upcoming Christmas.
