Nectar points

bramble1

Is it possible to buy a sainsburys gift card with my nectar points so that I can spend the gift card instore? I need to do my food shop with my nectar points this week and I don't want to be forced to work it out so that i spend in blocks of £2.50 - good idea or not?

I think they can just take off your Nectar balance at the till now, rather than worry about vouchers.

Hopefully someone can confirm but I'm sure I've seen people do that in my local.

Yes you just take off your nectar points at the till, it will tell the cashier how many you can take off your bill

You can't buy gift cards with nectar points if you try it just says Qualifying spend not met.

blocks of £2.50 is only way to do it im afraid unless your extremely good at maths and you buy shopping that is done in multiples of £2.50
