‘Got mine yesterday’: Woolies is giving away free $99 coffee machines

If you’re in need of a new coffee machine, you’re in luck. Woolworths is currently giving away free $99 coffee machines to customers who buy coffee capsules.

Shoppers can get their hands on a Lavazza Jolie Coffee Machine for free when they purchase six packets of Lavazza coffee capsules for $11 a pop, which means you’ll have to spend $66 at the checkout to get your freebie coffee maker. The promotion is running until September 1, while stock lasts in selected stores.

Savvy shoppers have already taken to social media to reveal they’ve taken advantage of the deal, encouraging others to do the same. Posting on the Markdown Addiction Australia Facebook page, one excited shopper shared a photo of her receipt showing how she scored the free coffee machine.

“At Woolworths, this week, buy six packs of Lavazza capsules, get [a] coffee machine for free,” she wrote.

Another member of the Facebook group shared an image of the coffee machine and the six packets of coffee capsules she had to buy in order to get the freebie, writing: “Loving my new FREE coffee machine! Thanks woolies!”

Others commented on how good the coffee machine actually is, with one writing: “I actually like mine. Coffee is nice too. Got mine yesterday.” Another added: “I got mine too. And now having a delicious coffee from it.”

It comes a day after Aldi shoppers went nuts over a $6 shiraz named “Small Talk”. It was brought into the spotlight recently by an Aussie woman who took to social media to share her excellent review of the wine. Posting to popular Facebook group Aldi Mums she admitted she’s “hooked” and even compared it to the well-known Penfolds wines.

“I’m a total red wine sob, Penfolds come at me!” she wrote on Facebook at the time. “My friend got me into this and for $6 for a one litre bottle, seriously get out of town, I’m hooked! Highly recommend guys.”

But, she’s not the only one who has given it top ratings, with tonnes of excellent reviews on wine reviews website Vivino. Some have described it as being “sensational value”, while others say it’s “very easy to drink”.

“Wow, not bad for $6. Very easy to drink, nothing sinister, pleasant straight out of the bottle and a nice aftertaste,” one person commented.
