I double mine up in November for treats for my little GGCs I use my nectar card along side my sons Sainsburys staff discount card and get a further discount of 20% so well worth saving for.

I save mine and use them on EBay.
There is often something I want ...

Fanny round about November time, Sainsbury's offer you a chance to double up your points. I nearly forgot this year, but made it with a day to spare.
You can download the vouchers onto the App. I made an early morning foray to Sainsbury's when I knew it would be very quiet and used the handheld scanner to shop safely.
It worked a treat with no fuss at all. I ended up with a free dress and tunic. I was well pleased! grin

I have a few nectar points and may do a pre Christmas shop , but with it segmented into £2.50p bits , just add the odd difference to what would be a free shop.

How do you double your points?
I've never heard of this before!
Thank you

I doubled mine in November to the maximum I was allowed. Still got a lot more. Not sure what the options are other than knocking down the grocery bill.

I use mine for online food order too. I didn't realise there was any other way to spend them.

I've just used mine on my Sainsbury's online order.

£25 off. Better than nothing.

Time was when I would save up my nectar points all year and get all my Christmas food with them. My DD used to buy magazine subscriptions as presents with hers. A lot has changed. I wonder if they are worth saving anymore.

I doubled up mine last month, added the vouchers to the app and bought clothing from Sainsbury's.

I wanted to spend my nectar points on my grocery bill but they wouldn’t let me do it from my phone app. They said I had to have my actual card.

How else can I spend about £50 worth? What would you spend them on? Why is it not easy to find out the rules on their site?
