For several hours on Saturday, both the Coles website and app displayed a message advising “we’re currently offline – but not for long”. The website and app came back online, before the website went down again during the afternoon. It was back up at about 4pm AEST.
It came after a post by an Australian Reddit account on Friday about a discount on 24-packs of Jack Daniel’s & Cola 330ml bottles sold via Coles by subsidiary Liquorland which were marked down from $130 to $27, a saving of $103, or just under 80%.
“Found this. I’m assuming it’s a mistake?!” wrote the account, which is run by the operators of price tracking website CW Scanner.
