  • Hi, could anyone confirm if I am wright?

    As far as I know there is a limit of £40 per category per card. I share my nectar account with my wife, we have two cards but collect points into one pot and saved around 10.000 points. Can we take, for example, two £40 vouchers for each of our cards in same category and then use them both in one transaction buying one item?

    "If you change your mind, items can be returned or exchanged within 30 days, in line with Sainsbury's usual returns policy – so as long as you have proof of purchase and the item's in its original condition. Instead of the points being returned to your balance, you'll be given a cash refund for the full product price."

    Does this effectively mean you can get the cash value of double your points if you buy and return an item? :eek:

    Where does it say that please?

    All I can find on Sainsbury website is this.

    21.Items purchased using a Nectar Double Up voucher may be returned within 30 days in accordance with our Returns Policy.

    So has anyone else encountered this? I've been getting significant amount of points from someone spending in a shop that I, nor the other card holders, do not use. I have emailed Nectar already (being the kind soul I am :beer:) but I was wondering how wide spread this issue is? We must have received £10-£20 now...

    I've got about £80 on my card. They've just accumulated was Sainsbury's (don't buy much in there these days:D) is the most convenient place for the bits I can't get in Aldi. DH adds to it by using Paypal (I think) or some other online purchasing that he does. Oh and I have a Sainsbury's credit card which add a few points whenever I use it which is often.


    I just accumulate them because I can. I'd never use Sainsbury's over other better value places.

    I'm up to about £65.
    My other half had almost £100 on his! Which we converted to vouchers for Expedia and paid for a big chunk of our holiday!
