Measure the space and identify the exact item and seller before comparing David Jones and Myer homewares totals. David Jones' ShopBack listing excludes certain brands, app orders and unsupported promotions. Myer distinguishes marketplace products and excludes its app and specified loyalty or points payments. Compare delivered prices first and check the live merchant terms for the item you choose.
Measure and specify the item
For cookware, check diameter, material, heat source compatibility and what pieces a set actually includes. For bedding, note mattress depth, fabric composition and size. For furniture or storage, measure the installation space and doorway. Write down the exact model or item details; a search result labelled 'queen' or 'set' can conceal a different size or component count.
Compare the product detail pages at David Jones and Myer rather than assuming identical images represent identical stock. Record delivery address, estimated date, any separately quoted assembly and final delivered cost. A gift or large item needed by a particular day should be evaluated against the actual checkout delivery options.
Identify the seller and category
Myer's Australian ShopBack page distinguishes marketplace products sold by third parties from other Myer items. A homewares basket can contain multiple sellers, so inspect each listing and the actual checkout category. Do not apply the first category displayed on a department-store page to every product in a multi-item order.
David Jones displays category-specific offers and excludes named brands including Miele and AESOP. This is a different merchant's list. If the homewares choice is a branded appliance, check the exact brand against both pages before factoring in any possible cashback. Neither listing verifies whether a specific pan, blanket or appliance is currently in stock.
Audit the payment route
Checklist for David Jones: inspect excluded brands, check whether an item is a gift-card gift with purchase, avoid assuming a store promotion qualifies, and read the rules for vouchers or codes not featured on ShopBack. Its checked listing also excludes David Jones app orders and taxes and delivery charges from eligible spend.
Checklist for Myer: check whether it is a marketplace item, inspect the relevant category, and read the current restrictions for the Myer app, loyalty or points redemptions and gift cards. These are Myer's rules, not a blanket statement that all reward programmes are excluded everywhere. Compare the price you definitely pay before considering either merchant's conditional cashback.
Make a final delivered-price decision
Hypothetical only: matching bedding at one store costs A$110 plus A$12 delivery and at another A$118 with delivery included. The checkout totals are A$122 and A$118. On those invented numbers the second costs A$4 less, assuming the fabric, size and arrival date meet the same needs. No current price or reward is implied.
Use this final sequence: dimensions and materials, seller, included pieces, delivery date, full AUD amount and then the merchant's ShopBack exclusions. Open the chosen ShopBack Australia merchant page and click through to the online purchase. Keep the confirmation and item list, especially if a multi-item order later needs an exchange; both listings exclude returned or cancelled purchases.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Myer homewares listing always have Myer as its seller?

Can I use an unrelated voucher at David Jones and assume cashback?

Should I exclude delivery when comparing prices?
No. Include delivery in the amount you pay; both checked listings exclude it from cashback-eligible spend.
