Just a word of warning to those with large balances - make sure you keep your cards safe. No checks are made on ID when redeeming and if you lose your card and somebody else spends your points they are gone for good. It is so easy for someone who finds a card to make a small cash purchase, swipe the card and discover how much is on it. When my son worked at Sainsbury's during his gap year and saw a few customers lose out he advised me to spend my points as I go along.
the double upp in two weeks 5-6 dept round store £5 = £10 voucher or £20-£40 off electrical/entertaiment, ttd wine, Christmas gifting. so your £140 could be worth £280!!!
As Barry60 mentioned Sainsburys have there double up your points scheme coming up again soon, it’s worth waiting till then. And you don’t have to buy instore there are lots of days out etc and goodies you can get, or use it for your Christmas food shop.Enjoy!!
This is what we call "magic money " i.e unanticipated. Whenever it turns up here....we spend it on something beautiful that makes us happy. At the moment, Sainsbury's have 25% off 6 bottles of St Emilion... et voila... job done ! Cheers !
We've never really spent ours. First time about 4 years ago when we got a new 'big' tv. Cost a fair bit so we spent our nectar points for a few months until we had spent the same as the value of the tv. Currently have around £400 of nectar points. My husband doesn't want to use them but I keep saying the actual value is going down as good prices are rapidly going up.
Well done! Do you know about the Sainsbury's double up offer they run every year? www.Sainsburys.co.uk/DoubleUp From 8th Nov I think. Happy spending power!
I thought his card was linked to mine but when i checked whether some points we got with insurance had arrived, I discovered he's got his own account with years' worth of points accumulated!
