Nectar Bonus points
I’ve always shopped mostly at Sainsbury’s and I collect Avios for flights so was happy when they were linked. I usually receive 15 to 20 bonus offers. Last week only 9, 5 of which I have never purchased. This week 5, 3 of which I never purchase. Are bonus offers being phased out? I usually spend £80-100 each week. I’ve…

Money Moral Dilemma: Should my husband ask if he can use his loyalty app on other people's shopping?
This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... My husband recently asked whether it would be OK for him to ask other people whether he can scan his loyalty app on their shopping to get extra points, if they don't appear to be doing so. I think this would be mortifyingly rude and not likely to get a positive response. What…

What to do when nectar price isn't applied?
I went to Sainsburys on Friday and saw a product that usually costs £7.75, but with a nectar price of £7. It's a bit of a favourite in our house, so I bought 10 of them, which should have given a discount of £7.50, but when I checked the receipt, I had been charged full price on all of them. Previously when I've had an…

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…

Food pricing crisis?
In the news at the moment. It does seem as if you don't really shop around then food pricing must be pinching the average household. I'm not on a tight budget and find a combo of Hello Fresh and weekly Sainsbury online order my most efficient route, with limited time and spend around £120 a week in total. I used to be Aldi…

When I use the nectar prices app I have to walk around the store to get it to place me inside the store and allow the shop.

I get the error message "please try again later" as the…
