Spotlight catalogue current: Halloween, Black Friday notice and how long they run
Fabric, haberdashery, craft, party supplies and homewares: that is the Spotlight shop, and its catalogue reflects it. Right now, searches such as "spotlight catalogue current" and "spotlight catalogue this week" lead to three editions in our listing. The big one is a 28-page catalogue valid from 14 October to 1 November 2026. Alongside it sits a one-page Black Friday notice valid from 14 October to 27 November, plus a 29-page Home of Halloween edition that started earlier, on 23 September, and also ends on 1 November.
Kimbino's own description of the main catalogue gives 27 November as the end date, which clashes with the 1 November in its listing, so the printed dates on the pages are the safest guide. Editions listed on AdsSOS usually start on a Wednesday, and 14 October and 23 September were both Wednesdays. Spotlight doesn't publish a fixed release day that we could find. Flick through the lot on the Spotlight catalogue current page, and remember that overlapping sales are normal here.
Spotlight VIP Club, rewards and coupons
Ask what "spotlight rewards" means and the answer is the free VIP Club. Search snippets from Spotlight's help centre and shopping sites describe a welcome discount, a birthday discount each year and member-only offers on selected lines. The terms of VIP coupons, as quoted in search results, say a coupon can't be used with the Bargain Guarantee or other vouchers. Many categories are excluded, and the coupon must be linked to your VIP details at checkout. Because the terms change with every promotion, read the fine print on the coupon itself.
People also ask "does spotlight have an app". Store opening hours, holiday schedules, and loyalty participation can vary by specific branch location and municipal regulations. Local branch postings and shop-front signage give the schedule that actually applies to you. Use the website to manage your membership.
Spotlight price match and the Bargain Guarantee
The official name is Bargain Guarantee. Spotlight's help centre, as it appears in search results, says the retailer will beat a cheaper price on an identical stocked item by 10 per cent. The conditions are tight: same brand, model, year and colour, stock available to buy immediately without backorders or rainchecks, a price that includes GST, delivery and handling, and a competing store within 30 km. A third-party guide adds that online-only sellers and marketplaces don't count. The help article's wording carries a stray reference to a Singapore site, so it may be a copy error, and the live policy page is worth a look before you rely on it.
Spotlight return policy: sale items, fabric and change of mind
Spotlight's help centre says returns are made in store with proof of purchase such as a receipt or tax invoice, and that for change-of-mind returns the store may ask for and record ID. Items must be in the original packaging and suitable for resale. A third-party returns service puts the change-of-mind window at 28 days, with online orders sometimes counted from delivery. The same source lists exclusions including cut-to-length fabric, clearance items and opened machines. Policies on returns, refunds and price matching vary by retailer, branch and product type, and local consumer-protection rules apply on top. Read the conditions at the till or on the receipt, and keep proof of purchase. Faulty goods are covered by Australian Consumer Law regardless.
Spotlight opening hours on Sundays and public holidays
"Spotlight opening hours sunday", "is spotlight open on public holidays" and "what time does spotlight close" turn up a lot. Most stores sit in shopping centres or retail parks, and those set their own trading hours, which differ by state and suburb. The store finder on Spotlight's website is the quickest route to a specific location. If a public holiday is coming up, phone first, because trading rules differ across the states.
Who runs Spotlight?
Wikipedia describes Spotlight Group Holdings as a privately owned retail group based in South Melbourne, with the first Spotlight store opening in Malvern, Victoria, in 1973. It was founded by Morry Fraid and Ruben Fried. The group expanded to Singapore in 1995, New Zealand in 1996 and Malaysia in 2014, bought Mountain Designs in 2018 and Harris Scarfe in 2020. The 2026 count in the article is 305 stores: 146 Spotlight, 95 Anaconda and 64 Harris Scarfe.
That family tie is handy if you shop for camping gear as well as craft supplies. The Anaconda outdoor catalogue belongs to the same group. For a different type of retail, the Officeworks catalogue this week is the nearest stationery and craft-adjacent option, the Auto, Sports and Leisure catalogues hub covers the wider category and the Australia catalogue home lists everything else.
