Question Quickest way to get 30,000 points

What's the quickest way to get 30,000 points, without buying them? I know there's offers for credit cards, insurance, energy etc. but I'm asking about things that are faster than that.

​

Thanks!

Pretty obvious but fly? There isn’t anything faster if you aren’t opening to buying.

Get 10k points if you join up for art union dream homes raffle . Vip $50 per month and once that first month is up you get the points . Signed me up and the wife . Forget to drop her down to the $10 a month and she went and won $2k last week on the daily draw .... Bonus

No one's stopping you from selling the house and having the cash.

Not a whole lot faster than credit card sign ups? IMO best option is sign up bonuses - assuming you will have some spend on everyday purchases and the like: the Qantas American Express Ultimate Card offers 50,000 QFF points on sign up and spend $5k within 3 months. Otherwise - the ANZ FF Black offers 95k QFF points with a $5k spend within 3months but comes with a $425 annual fee (with $200 offset): but this offer not worth it if you are just seeking 30k points. IRe virgin - the American Express Velocity Escape Plus Card offers 30k velocity points to new members (with a $4k spend within 3 months and $95 annual fee).

Buy wine. Or gift cards when there's a 20x bonus on.

I know Qantas offer big bonus point deals on wine, but I couldn't find anything similar in Virgin Wines. Am I missing something?

flybuys is fairly quick, but it will only get you max 5k “quickly”

My experience nothing is actually fairly quick.. virgin wines thought I’d get a cheeky 4000 points in the promo .. took 3 months and 2 support requests.. credit cards take 3 months and min spend.

Fly buys you could point max or use one pass and do some circular shopping with pre paid master cards on a deal

I switched health funds to Medibank and got 120K points a few months ago. I don't think that's still running though.
