Saving Money at Ocado

Options
Have a delivery coming tomorrow and savings over £16. No other supermarket gives me anywhere near that amount. Am I just lucky, or is Ocado putting more offers on ? 

What's the most that you have saved at Ocado, or any other supermarket ?

    I think the 'savings' can be misleading.  Shops offer big discounts on items that not many people are buying.  Why?  Because they're vastly overprices to begin with.
    I've shopped with Ocado for years, then I switched to Sainsbury's and recently I've switched to Asda.  Whilst the 'savings' each month look small on the receipts, my grocery bills are a lot cheaper now than they used to be with Ocado.

    It’s the way their receipts work against other supermarkets 

    So if you purchased a £4 item discounted to £2 at Asda, it just shows as £2 on the receipt with no savings but Ocado shows it as £2 with a £2 saving.

    Iceland shows the total savings as 'promotional discount' but often doesn't show individual offers on the receipt, just multibuys.
