Which Supermarket Loyalty Scheme is Your Favourite?

Other

Personally I get the most value out of Tesco Clubcard. It’s my closest supermarket so I end up using it more often than the others, and both my phones (business and personal) are also through Tesco Mobile so the points add up quite quickly for me.

As I do almost all my shopping with Tesco that's the one I get most out of. Just checked and have £80 vouchers to use. Every now and again we treat ourselves to something... but also the club card prices are often well worth having too

didbygraham £80 in vouchers is a great amount to have! I agree with the clubcard prices being great too - I wouldn’t buy a lot of things if they weren’t clubcard prices.

My local supermarket is Sainsbury so I do pop in there, I use the Nectar card and have over £200 on it. I used to always take advantage of the double up scheme that was around November time and buy Xmas gifts and Birthday gifts but they stopped that promotion unfortunately. I will probably just start spending money off my card in store and at Argos.

TiaTia I used to use the Nectar double up but found there was nothing in store I wanted for the last few years they did it so it became a lot less worthwhile to me then.

I'm part of the Sainsbury, Tesco and Lidl schemes but the one I use the most is Lidl plus. It is where I shop most often and I save a minimum of £12 a month using it. I would love it if Asda did a loyalty scheme. I know they have one for buying George items online but I wish they did one in-store for everything.

MrsCraig I may be wrong, but I think they are trialling one in some Asda stores. Maybe someone can tell us what it is like??

MrsCraig I don’t think I even knew Lidl had one but my local store is over 30 miles away so I don’t think I’d use it much anyway 😂 They have some good prices from the deals I’ve seen though so I bet you can save a lot that way too.

cocolgooh it is an app on your phone rather than a physical card. I scan mine every time I shop. You get money off when you spend a certain amount and get money off coupons on the app each week.

I mainly shop at Tesco and I’ve got £109 in vouchers after just checking! We used to use them for meals out and I’ve been treating myself to magazine subscriptions lately.

When we pop into Sainsburys I take advantage of the ‘My Nectar Prices’ that I can get using their Smartshop scanner. Saved £2.68 on the last few items I bought there.

snoogans888 the nectar prices are good because they are multiuse. I also use the bonus points to get better than freebies, eg 200 points on tinned fish.

I have Tesco Clubcard & Nectar. I do pretty much all our shopping at Tesco so rack up points on there. I recently got my son & his girlfriend a lovely set from Denby using Clubcard points.

I've never thought much of the Tesco scheme but we don't do a main shop there very often. I tend to do better with the sainsbury's personalised offers.

Midnightflower For me the Sainsburys personalised offers never seem very good - for example I’m allergic to cows milk and every time I do go there it says It’ll give me money off the biggest bottle of cows milk. I’ve never bought it but it still gives me that offer every single time.

I have all the loyalty cards and find they can all be good in specific circumstances. For instance, clubcard prices are great when combined with cashback from an app.

I wish they weren't called loyalty cards as they don't reward loyalty. My husband has his own cards and he gets much better offers even though he buys far less. Presumably to encourage him into the shops.

Sainsburys for sure although I miss the double up event. Still use the points for coffees in Nero which is cheaper than buying with your money.

I'm a fan of all the loyalty schemes . I do look forward to the new 1 for Asda Rewards which hopefully will be going nationwide with it . I do get a lot of points for Nectar , clubcard but I do a thing called wombling and they do bring me a lot of points to the point I get roughly £20 - £30 a month towards my fuel bill each month .

I do take advantage as well to the reduction in prices through Sainsburys and Tescos when using the loyalty card .

I have zero loyalty to any supermarket and tend to rotate where I shop to get the best prices so I use all the main supermarkets. Each seems to have decent deals for certain items. Aldi is now my closest supermarket which I can walk to and there is only really a limited amount of items I can buy there which I like which are easy to carry so probably works out the best value as the prices are cheap, the quality decent for the items I buy mainly and I can carry the shopping home meaning no petrol used and a bit of exercise. So I do build up points with Clubcard, Nectar etc but very slowly. It's really discount vouchers that motivate me to use a supermarket so if £5 off appears on lidl plus I go there or there is a voucher code sent to me for other supermarkets I go there and that is typically a significant discount especially as I try to keep to the minimum spend requirements, i.e. £6 off a £30 shop is 20% off if you spend £30.

I sort of think loyalty cards can be a distraction and motivate you to keep to the same supermarket which may not always be the best option as often the points are only a penny in the pound or sometimes less which is nothing compared to a 20p saving on a couple of items.

emmajd Tesco's ClubCard prices are just the prices it should be by default, but without it it's a ripoff. 😕

I've been using Sainsbury's myself with Nectar points and cashback so it's a good incentive.

I use Tesco and Sainsburys quite regularly. I’ve just used all of my Tesco Clubcard points to buy a few toys for my grandkids for Christmas. Takes me a while to build the points up tho.

Sainsburys seem to take forever to get many points.
