Loyalty card changes - could we see minimum spends?
With Sainsbury's not doing the nectar double up offer and waitrose requiring a purchase for a free hot beverage, it appears the supermarkets are feeling the cost of their loyalty schemes, my guess is the next step is a minimum spend to get any benefits, if this happens are you likely to not bother with these schemes?
Vitacoca 750ml
So I was in Sainsbury's and they are currently selling these for £2 on promotion from £3, they also have a hanging coupon for 50p off, which I used, so I paid £1.50 total, might be useful if you like this drink.

Iceland - Tetley Tea Bags

Eggs, large for same price as medium.
Bought eggs in Lidl a few days ago. 10 large eggs were 79p (7.9p each). However, their pack of 15 medium eggs have a shelf -price £1.19 ( also 7.9p each). So now I can enjoy the luxury of a large boiled egg for breakfast knowing that it's the same price as a medium.
