Morrisons spend £70 save £15 voucher.
Been getting emailed a lot of these recently. Do you get emailed the voucher code too? I always utilise them as I really like getting them as I only do my shopping at Morrisons. I do a big shop with them but instead of buying junk I meal plan and make sure I have enough evening meals to prepare for 3 weeks.

Sainsbury's - 'expiring soon' / 'damaged' refunds.
I don't usually claim refunds for online orders of crushed Ice Creams and soon to expire items, but I am curious as to whether others do and should I start claiming refunds for items like this as Sainsbury's offer it? If things are expiring soon I'd just eat them in the first 2 days before they do, but you can claim a…

Best Before It's Gone www.cheapfood.co.uk is based in Daventry. I found it when I was looking for a Rogers Warehouse, near me. Unlike Rogers Warehouse, Best Before It's Gone does ship stuff.

Tesco Reward Partner Freebie
Did anyone else get a random Tesco Reward Partner freebie? I found this in my app, but they didn't notify me that it was there. Not sure what I did to "earn it" as I rarely shop at Tesco. Most strange.

Money Moral Dilemma: Is it OK to use a surplus food app even though I'm not struggling?
This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... I read about an app that allows you to buy discounted food from supermarkets that would otherwise be thrown away.

‘Use Within’ Instructions
A comment on the Aldi/Lidl thread got me thinking, which ‘use within X weeks’ instructions do you abide by? I only noticed the other day that our ketchup says ‘use within 8 weeks’ and I’ve had it in the fridge for about 6 months. The tartare sauce advises 4 weeks. It tends to take me 8 weeks to get through a small jar and…

Clubcard Pay+: can anyone get this thing to actually work as a Clubcard?
Thought it was a good idea. I'd move everyday spending money to a Pay+ card rather than having every pub transaction, bar of chocolate from Tesco etc going through my main bank account and it helps me budget. And I get a payment card that automatically acts as a Clubcard. Or does it......? There's no barcode on it so it's…

You might not be seeing them yet, if you buy shrink-wrapped 6 x 500ml packs of Evian, but tethered plastic bottle caps have appeared on bottles in 24 x 500ml boxes.
