These deals prove there’s more to life than footy!

If your footy team, like mine, is out of the premiership race, you might be keen to get out of town. Mine was knocked out over the weekend, so to avoid the pain my mind turned to other things. Like escaping for a few days or weeks. And, fortunately, I was provided with options with the arrival of an email from Qantas highlighting their Red Tail deals. A trip to Asia? Perfect!

If a trip to Asia is a stretch, check out some local holiday deals on offer from Scoopon. Or you could just stay home to avoid the gloating of friends whose team is still in the premiership race. If that’s your preference, make sure you save some money while doing so with this week’s specials at Woolies.

Qantas Red Tail Sale

For the next few days Qantas is offering flights to a number of Asian cities at great sale prices. Return economy flights to Hong Kong from Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne are on offer from just $979. From Brisbane, the starting price is even lower at just $961.

If Bali is more your style, Qantas still has you covered. Flights from Melbourne to Denpasar start at just $599, with Denpasar-bound flights from all other major Australian cities available at discount rates, too.

Hong Kong and Bali are just the start in this Red Tail Sale. Check out the great deals on flights to Singapore, Manila, Tokyo, Seoul, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Penang and more here. But don’t wait too long – this sale ends on Monday.

Scoop up these deals at Scoopon

On the other hand, you might not feel the need to get too far away from home. Perhaps just a few days away within Australia might be enough for you to re-energise. Scoopon’s current deals could be just the thing.

How about two nights at Rydges Resort Hunter Valley? This package offer includes wine tastings at Brokenwood and Pepper Valley wineries, daily buffet breakfast, complimentary nightly cocktails and more. Valued at up to $924, this offer is available for just $449, but only for the next few days.

For something a little bit more adventurous, check out Scoopon’s limited time exclusive Sea World Resort deal. This includes unlimited theme park entry for four to Sea World, Warner Bros. Movie World, Wet’n’Wild and Paradise Country. You’ll also get a wine twin pack upon arrival and two-for-one beer, wine and cocktails throughout your stay. Plus, there’s a heap of bonus inclusions. Five nights for $1299 (valued at up to $3061) is all waiting for you to book here

There are more great Scoopon packages, such as stays at Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains or Novotel Sunshine Coast resort here.

Woolies

Of course, there’s a third option for those looking to get away from gloating footy friends – stay at home. If this is your preferred option, you’ll need to stock up on groceries, treats and other household necessities. 

Woolworths can help you out with that. Shop online and you’ll have an even better chance of avoiding those gloating footy fans! And with this week’s catalogue, you’ll be able to stock up on the cheap. 

Woolies’ range of goodies at half price this week include chicken sandwich schnitzels (just $1.40 each), John West Tuna and fresh Aussie Blueberries. For those who love a snack Arnott’s Shapes and Kettle chips are also half price this week. 

Other great specials include a 100-pack of Lipton tea bags at $4.90 (down from $7.00), Cold Power laundry liquid at half price ($12) and Connoisseur ice-cream varieties down from $12 to just $7.20.
