I have just come to the end of our yearly Ocado membeship and am wondering what are the best offers currently out there?

    It would be worth contacting Ocado customer services and asking what's the best price they can offer you.  I've done that twice over the years and got a much lower price than even the promotional one for new customers.  Generally they are pretty keen to retain existing customers.

    Well that was disappointing.  Called up Ocado to ask if they had any offers, was told no. Accepted my cancellation and my smart lass will run out at the end of the month. Let’s see if I get any mails with any decent offers.

    From info posted here and elsewhere, it seems that Ocado are unwinding their past practices of discounting Smart Passes, often deeply and with people staying on the discount for years, over to the standard price, which Ocado have always been a bit coy about stating openly. This can be quite a difference as some have hitherto been getting the anytime pass for £2.99 a month (at least that is the cheapest I've seen).

    I was on £1.99 for several years up until 2018, when they put it up to £4.99.  Now they've increased it again to £6.99, which I think is still a bit of a discount on the "regular" price - but I'm wondering whether it's worth it for the amount we use it.

    Ex Ocado customer here. Bought a Morrisons delivery pass £65 and instead of a minimum order of £40 (£60 at Waitrose) it's only £25, so I can use it every week between Abel & Cole and Riverford. That saves, because I'm not having to fork out £40 when I just want a few bits.
