My nectar points were stolen earlier this year (apparently Nectar card fraud is widespread these days) so I've got a new card and sadly no round up of the year
I will no longer know if I continue to be top buyer of one very specific type of own brand cat food that my picky cat likes!

I'm not sure how I'd feel if I had to get a new card - I've had my account since I started Uni (in 2002 😱!) and there was a Sainsbury's in town that I used to walk to (hadn't learned to drive yet) - it feels like part of my identity!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)
