Getting better Sainsbury's/Nectar vouchers

camaj

Yes I understand that. I'm asking if it matters whether I spend £20 every friday or £3 a day. I'm still spending £20+ a week. Also they're not giving me any vouchers so I'm not being pushed into spending more. If they gave me £3 off £30 I'd understand but they're not even giving me that! I'm just wondering whether I should start buying all my stuff on the same day or start spending more in order to be given a voucher.

That said, I probably save a lot more the way I currently shop. It's just it'd be nice to get a decent voucher for a change!

I rarely use Sainsburys, but when I go, I DO tend to get till spits. They also post them to me. The latest ones i've had are for £8 off £40. I use them at Tesco instead.

got 5 till spits today 4 of which ill actually use. shocked really. i spend close to £250 a month and rarely get more than a double points voucher. usually scammin ones others have left behind.

i work in sainsburys and do my main shopping there and normally get one or two tillspits that i wont use. Today I got quite a few on a £10 spend that are really good that i will use and have already started making a list on how to maximise points etc.

I got:
20p off pasta sauce which i buy a lot of anyway
40p off taste the difference potato products
80 points when i spend £20
160 points when i spend £4 on frozen food
200 points when i spend £5 on fruit and veg
and £2 off a £20 spend.

So if i spend my usual £30 and include the amounts above it should work out as :

£30 spend - £2 voucher = £28
£28 - £0.60 coupons = £27.40
£27.40 - 10% discount = £24.66
24 x 6nectar points = 144 (I get triple points for a week for being staff)
+ 440 points for coupons = 584 points

There is a coupon for 50p off for getting 5 items of fruit and veg. I saw a customer getting 5 bananas and weighing them individually on self scan and getting his bananas for 3p! As if you weighed all 5 bananas at once, its classed as one item!

Cool!

I got a voucher for points if you spend £5 on fresh fruits and veg but I never really spend that much.

Staff discount knocks off the total transaction, regardless of if you use coupons.

So £30 minus 10% discount - £27
£27 - £2.60 of coupons - £22.40.
Nectar card points still remain the same

get two boxes of either strawberries, raspberries, white grapes, cherries for £3 and 2 Melons or mangos on BOGOF.

camaj

hehe, thanks but either way I'd still have to spend a fiver on fruit and veg for about £2 in points
