    I find it more rewarding if you shop little & often at Lidl, because every time you visit, you get a scratch card pop up on your Lidl+ app. When you reveal the scratch card, I've found that you get a coupon pretty much 90% of the time but the coupon may not be for what you usually buy nor suitable if you have a special diet !!!

    That's rather the point isn't it?

    Although thinking about it, Sainsburys Nectar offers are always for what I bought last week......

    Even so, I don't find Sainsbury's prices to be competitive.

    I use an online price comparator site (trolly.co.uk) and stick in the half dozen items that are reasonably expensive that I buy consistently -  like190g jars of Nescafe Alta Rica. Price can vary between £6-10.  

    Sainsburys are consistently the cheapest.

    A deodorant brand favoured by my partner is nearly always cheapest at Asda.

    Not suggesting that it's worthwhile checking everything you shop for but for the larger ticket items (and if you have the shops available) you can save a fair chunk over a month.

    I do use Trolley for the few branded foodstuffs I prefer, but for generic and non UPF foods Aldi and Lidl are consistently cheaper.
