The Event is now finished!

Click Frenzy is back in New Zealand, and this time it's the Main Event that happens every November.

This time limited event runs for 53 hours and historically, has included partners from many big-name retailers and franchises.

Be sure signup to their website here to receive their newsletter and be in the running to win some of their 99% off deals. (You can always opt out after the event is over).

If you were a participant in last year's event, simply log back in again with the same username and password.

The event will be offering you a chance to score some 99% off deals: they've teased a Samsung Galaxy phone for $11 and 65 inch TV's for $18. To get these deals though, you'll need to be logged in and browsing the Click Frenzy website when a deal goes "live", and be prepared to respond to a pop-up notification that's asking you a certain question (30 minute time limit). Answers will be ranked by accuracy first and speed second, and winners will be contacted with a one-use discount code to buy their winning items with.

Visit their FAQ here to see an explanation

Remember: You will need a Click Frenzy account to access these 99% off deals when they go live, so be sure to create an account if you haven't already.

Tips: Be sure to also bookmark or follow their Instagram page as they sometimes use this to livestream events (which you need to watch to answer quizzes that unlock the 99% off deals).

Confirmed 99% off Deals:

8/11:
7pm-8pm iPhone 14 Q
9/11:
11am-12pm Galaxy Buds2 Pro Q

    Under Armour up to 60% off
    adidas extra 40% off Outlet (code)
    New Balance 30% off (code)

    Just some of the deals I've come across.

    • toomanywises on 08/11/2022 - 23:03

      Please if you could create a thread or explain how you got the bigger deals last time, so we can learn some tricks as well? :D

      • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 23:47

        Can you explain what you mean a bit more. Big deals last time for example, what do you mean there?

        I got a somewhat similar request a few years back which resulted in the following thread:
        https://www.cheapies.nz/node/24307

        My style has changed a bit since then. I was a prolific deal poster at the time, whereas now I focus on competitions and deals that stand out. Though I still post other deals, whether it be a freebie or a decent discount code.

        Of those sites I linked to in that thread, I use 9 of them still. The HNZ code is still going strong too.

        • Cashmere on 09/11/2022 - 22:03

          Wow that was a thread that kept on multiplying, Wakrak! You certainly put a lot of energy into sharing! And I hope all that karma comes back at you because you deserve it! ☺️🌺

            @Cashmere: Cheers. A lot of it comes down to this community. Didn't know much when I first started. Then I started learning from other cheapos about what's a good deal and what is not, where to look, what to type, and so on. Hopefully I've helped others get better along the way.

        • toomanywises on 10/11/2022 - 09:25

          No, not a problem. I was basically asking how the heck you got an iPhone when I basically camped in front of my PC and got nothing. It looks like I missed out this year since the bigger deals happened yesterday between 11-12pm.

          I was kindly having you on, sorry if I sounded annoying!

          • Wakrak on 10/11/2022 - 09:33

            @toomanywises: Ahh I get you now. Nah you're all good, was just a bit confused.

            I was lucky last year. Usually the pop-up appears on its own, but CF decided to do some tinkering back in May, and so unbeknownst to us at the time, you had to reload the page to get the pop-up.

            It was the very first comp.

            • toomanywises on 10/11/2022 - 10:19

              @Wakrak: That makes sense. Thank you :)

              Time to dust off Microsoft Edge since I can't be bothered disabling stuff! The last time I refreshed the page so many times, I think my device thought I was having a fit.

    @scrimshaw email just came in now

    $12 KitchenAid Stand Mixer, $4 Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Pro, $16 Apple iPhone 14 (128GB, Midnight)

    • scrimshaw on 08/11/2022 - 17:45

      Thanks, for whatever reason I'm not getting any emails.

      • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 18:06

        I only got it on the account I created yesterday. Same thing happened to me last year.

        • timmywinny on 08/11/2022 - 19:59

          Do you create a new account for each event, or use multiple per event?

          • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 20:00

            @timmywinny: Only for the emails. I use the same account for entering.

  • 1ys23 on 08/11/2022 - 18:35

    Wait so how do we know if we can get the 99% off deals?

  • 1ys23 on 08/11/2022 - 18:39

    Also when does the popup show? xD

  • spicegod on 08/11/2022 - 19:03

    Can I do this 99% thing on my phone? I've got the page open on another tab

    • Minimoo on 08/11/2022 - 19:06
      +1

      I would also like to know the answer to this. Also do we need to keep refreshing the page?

      • KJKNZ on 08/11/2022 - 19:13

        Some others were saying they didn't have to refresh the page but I always found I had to keep refreshing

        • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:39

          It is definitely receivable without refreshing, that is an end user problem

    • KJKNZ on 08/11/2022 - 19:06
      +1

      I done it on my phone last time. Definitely easier on a laptop/chromebook in my opinion though

    • timmywinny on 08/11/2022 - 19:23

      Phone would be fine, got to refresh

    • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:38

      Works on mobile but the most important thing is the tab is active.

      As tabs use up resources, a browser will hibernate it so it isn't using up CPU resources. If this happens, updates will not appear.

  • Lovesaini on 08/11/2022 - 19:13

    I did not see any good deal in nz website i have checked them all after login as member. 99% off deals are available in Australia only. Correct me if wrong.

  • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 19:16

    On the last Click Frenzy in May, the 99% deals didn't start until 8PM

    https://www.cheapies.nz/comment/127682/redir

    According to their email, there will be 99% deals between
    8-9pm for a IPhone 13
    9-10pm for a Nars Bijoux Eyeshadow palette

    Remember to check that you're logged in as well. Sometimes it logs you out.

  • InfinityLoop on 08/11/2022 - 19:33

    Got an email and it said the iPhone 14 99% off deal should go live between 7-8 pm today.

      Strangely enough it was sent at 7:27pm. They must have forgot about it or something.

      • InfinityLoop on 08/11/2022 - 19:37

        Yeah, it is surprisingly quite late.

        • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:44
          +1

          I wonder if they did it on purpose or not.

          Also, maybe there is an alternative communication somewhere else but would be crazy to think they release the popup before they send it out to the majority.

        This also happened last time, very weird timings of things

    • scrimshaw on 08/11/2022 - 19:44
      +1

      usually, the more expensive / desirable items show up closer to midnight. It's weird that the iPhone is the first item this time around.

  • minhas on 08/11/2022 - 19:42

    what kind of question do they ask?

    • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 19:43

      Click Frenzy / brand / sale related

      • minhas on 08/11/2022 - 19:44

        okies thanks.

  • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 19:44

    It's up

    • KJKNZ on 08/11/2022 - 19:46

      Think you might have beat me to this one haha

        I had the iPhone in the palm of my hands, but I think I answered wrong.

        • dealhunters on 08/11/2022 - 19:47

          same as me, literally answered within like 1-2 secs but i answered 3 instead….

          • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 19:48

            @dealhunters: Ah well. The mrs wants the stand mixer anyway lol. She has the iPhone from last year.

        • KJKNZ on 08/11/2022 - 19:56

          Based on answers here I think I got it wrong too haha, I thought it was only one year. OOPS

    QUESTION:
    How many years has Click Frenzy been running in New Zealand?

    HINT:

    The First click frenzy event in NZ was in 2021. https://www.cheapies.nz/node/30411

  • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:44

    is it 2021?

    • timmywinny on 08/11/2022 - 19:46

      Bill bud, you've slacked off, leave it to the pros

        • timmywinny on 08/11/2022 - 19:51

          all that gaming on the xbox you won last year gots your brain cooked

  • spren on 08/11/2022 - 19:45

    2 years, right?

    • xxLegendPlayzzxx on 08/11/2022 - 19:45

      I hope so.

    • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 19:45

      shit. Thought it was three. Misread

      • Dunno on 08/11/2022 - 19:49

        I guessed 4 lol, didn't think to check. def wrong here either way

      • bigcheese on 08/11/2022 - 19:49
        +1

        I put three too. Bugger.
        You got a phone last year anyway!

        • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 19:50

          I was panicking and then saw three written in the description of this post 🤦‍♂️

    • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:55

      I think this is the correct answer. If it started last year, and this is the anniversary, they would be on their second year currently, but not finished it. In reality, this is another one of their ambiguous questions, as through the context of the question it could be either 1 or 2. Guess is two as they would pick the longer of the two.

  • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:45

    I tried searching it up but couldn't find it

    • spren on 08/11/2022 - 19:46

      I checked the Instagram page and found the earliest post was 52 weeks ago lol

      • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 19:49

        Yeah first Facebook post was October 2021

  • bullseye on 08/11/2022 - 19:46

    so 3 years right?

    • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:50

      That's what I was thinking! Last year was the first!

  • spren on 08/11/2022 - 19:47

    Note: I reloaded the page on an incognito tab and the pop-up appeared again without me being signed in. Not sure if this is intended.

  • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 19:51

    Oh, by the way, you don't need to be logged in.

    The way the website works is the popup brings a cookie. Once I've answered once, I clear the cookies (don't need to sign in again) and reanswer.

    At least they're not using SurveyMonkey this time.

  • geardropper on 08/11/2022 - 20:06

    So what number have we decided I went 3 also

    • KJKNZ on 08/11/2022 - 20:09

      I went with 1 year, found this

      "Click Frenzy is launching in New Zealand for the first time, Tuesday 9 November 2021"

      So my thinking is technically one full year, but not sure now with all the other answers

  • boovohh on 08/11/2022 - 20:09

    Stupid question, i am on my phone and laptop, came up on each the pop up. answered twice. Which one does it consider or is it void

  • kaydub26 on 08/11/2022 - 20:10

    How do I get the pop up?..

    • scrimshaw on 08/11/2022 - 20:11

      • Make sure you're logged in your account and you're not using some kind of content blocker like NoScript or Adblock.
      • You only have 30 minutes per question, if you missed this 30min window the popup is gone.
      • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 20:14

        Also, tab has to be active, which is why some people don't get it until they refresh.

  • geardropper on 08/11/2022 - 20:12

    I'm thinking its been 1 year also

    • timmywinny on 08/11/2022 - 20:12

      you just went 3 spud

        Yer I know I got it wrong cause I rushed also😂😂🙂🙂🙂

    • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 20:21

      Could be either 1 or 2 but I think they will mark two as the correct answer.

      • bigcheese on 08/11/2022 - 20:23

        Agree, although if they determine the answer to be 1 then I would say KJKNZ has got the iPhone.

        • Bill on 08/11/2022 - 20:49

          Definitely think prizes are won by people here. The 10 minute notice for the time slot means a lot of people wouldn't have seen it in time from their email.

  • Wakrak on 08/11/2022 - 20:22

    Must be one prize a night. See you all tomorrow.

    Poor Sandy and Karl have been permanently banned. Think they caught the wrong person. How in the world Timmy didn't even get a spanking yet those two have been cast into the eternal depths of hell is a mystery even god himself can't solve. Karl didn't even do anything wrong, he just likes Being Determined, Smart, and Mindful.

    I like how in the email they sent out yesterday, they show some of the participating brands and then state that there are quite a few others. There are only two stores missing from that image.

    • figgy19 on 09/11/2022 - 09:12

      From the FAQ about NZ 99% deals: Follow us on Facebook and Instagram, we’ll also be dropping hints throughout the event on when you can expect a pop-up to go live!

      No Instagram posts since 16th June, no Instagram stories
      No Facebook stories, last post 14 hours ago saying the event is starting

      Seems like the Aus account is more active

    • LupinS on 09/11/2022 - 11:08

      The Addias discount also displays as a "11.11 Singles Day" discount in the cart, so was likely happening anyway.

      • Wakrak on 09/11/2022 - 11:19

        Same with ShaverShop, New Balance and others. When do they not have a sale / deals were available a few days prior to Click Frenzy.
