Coles Shoppers Discover Clever 'Rain Check' Strategy to Secure Sale Prices

A recent online video has brought attention to a valuable consumer hack available at Coles supermarkets across Australia: the 'rain check' policy. The video, shared by nutritionist julzhealth, demonstrates how shoppers can secure advertised sale prices for out-of-stock items. According to the video, if a product is on special but unavailable, customers can request a rain check at the service desk. This rain check then locks in the discounted price for up to 30 days, allowing the purchase of a maximum of six units once the item is back in stock. This policy offers a practical solution for consumers looking to manage their grocery budgets, particularly as food prices continue to be a concern for many households. The video shows the process from identifying an empty shelf with a sale tag to a Coles employee issuing a physical rain check. This tip could prove beneficial for shoppers who frequently miss out on deals due to product unavailability.
