Is Sainsbury's/Argos & eBay the best value for spending Nectar points..?
Hi all, I've been saving up my nectar points, thinking they would be a nice treat at some point, but I'm now stumped to actually find any good deals for them. I always thought Sainsbury/Argos/eBay was the baseline and you would get much better value redeeming elsewhere, but it doesn't look like there';s anything else…

Ocado - Slot Prices
I understand that as you get nearer to a date, and the slots fill up the price goes up - but once you get to a few hours before the cutoff - do prices go down? I was looking at a slot tomorrow but it's £7 - not worth it - but if I waited until say 4pm this afternoon is there any likelihood it may go down - in my areas all…

Sainsbury's (edit: and now Lidl) vacuum packed beef mince ... What do people think ?

Lidl next to vac…

Leaking Milk Cartons
Is anyone else having trouble with leaking milk cartons? Mostly from Sainsburys, but we also buy some from Booths (North West supermarket) and we've had problems with both. Basically, they leak. Just had to clear up quite a mess from the fridge from the latest one. I think the cartons are thinner, to save on plastic?…

Apple Grocery v Alexa List
Anybody here using Apple Grocery List, what do you think of it ? I’ve it been working with the Alexa app for some time now. If I’m about the house and see something I need to stock upon I simply say ‘Alexa add whatever to shopping list,’ and it’s done, I can do the same when I’m out and about. I generally type it in. Hack:…

Good Value Toilet Roll
I’ve been buying the Lidl quilted loo roll but it’s rubbish now that it’s been switched from 4-ply to 3-ply. Can anyone recommend a decent toilet roll that’s not ridiculously priced nor fragranced?

Anyone else tried snip savings?
Hi, has anyone else tried Snip? I have recently joined, as it was advertised on Pick My Postcode. So far I have saved £9.51 and have spent £3 on the monthly subscription so some modest savings. Wondering if it's worth swapping to the yearly subscription as it works out as £6 less a year. Only thing I wish they offered…

Is anyone else sick of rotflation?
Supermarkets in the UK have taken the best before/use by/display until dates off a lot of fruit and vegetables. They claim it's to reduce waste. If they really cared about waste they could bring back the deep discounting where they sold things at 90% off when it was about to expire. Now I'm finding I'm getting and eating…
