I think MSE should remove the "25% off first shop for Ocado" from the top of the list on Save on groceries using new customer supermarket delivery offers. Many reasons, the main one being that the 25% discount simply is a lie - I ordered £71.95 (sub-total, after additions and subtractions below) and got a discount of…

Anyone else doing these? Currently I qualify for 600 points or £6 in vouchers. If I spend £44 on certain items in the next two weeks, this increases to 2950 points or £29.50 in vouchers. As I have two easyJet holidays to pay for this means I get £59 off. I'm sure I could get even more. I haven't actually bought anything I…

Bit odd but a light bulb moment for me. Peeling shallots for second time this week (moules marininere & today prawn linguine) don't do regularly but done many times over the years. Bought the bulb ones rather than banana because reduced on clubcard, what a shocker to peel, I know this from experience! About 40p saved. We…

It hasn't happened in the past couple of years,but Sainso's used to do a pre-Christmas campaign where you got double the spending power (on most things) with Nectar points for a short period. Before I spend my accumulated stash, on festive treats at the normal rate,do we think there's any chance of this being resurrected…

Following the transfer of all Sainsburys’ credit card customers to Nat West my mother tried to add her new Nat West card to her Morrisons online grocery order. However, after almost 40 minutes of trying, neither the Morrisons app nor the website would accept her card details. Upon finding a contact number to call, she was…

Under Lidl's revamped loyalty scheme, which launched today (Tuesday 5 May), you now earn points for each pound spent, which you can either convert into money-off coupons or use to claim 'freebies'. But Lidl shoppers say they may now need to spend £10s or even £100s more to earn similar discounts to those they'd earn under…

I was at a suburban railway station yesterday that had a vending machine selling frozen ready meals: These days I know it's fairly common in rural areas for farms to have vending machines for dairy products and fresh fruit/veg. I've even seen a vending machine for farm-fresh milk in quite an urban shopping centre. 20 years…

I've got over £30 on my more card, and would like to create a voucher and spend, but when I try to create a voucher I'm told my account needs to be verified, but when I try do so I get the following message, and I'm also getting it on the website: Is anyone else having issues, or know how to rectify the issue?

I had a delivery due on Thursday which said delivered but it wasn’t so we called them up and the people on the phone said no it hadn’t been delivered but always delivered on the website confusing so they said they were send an email to the store to find out what happened. I heard nothing back so we next day and they said…
