Sainsbury's to make major loyalty scheme change that saves shoppers £150
Members will be able to bag customised savings at the till for the first time. Sainsbury's is set to make a major change to its loyalty scheme. For the first time, customers will be able to access 'personalised' discounts at the checkout. Starting from next Friday, July 25, the supermarket chain has confirmed members will be able to access the highly customised 'Your Nectar Prices' at the tills, allowing them to save money on their favourite products while they scan. The personalised offer provides shoppers with discounts across their favourite products, with the supermarket also recommending price cuts on items they think members will love based on previous shopping history. At the moment, shoppers can only find the exclusive 'Your Nectar Prices' when they make any orders online, or when they use the Smart Shop app or hand-set when in store. However, as of next Friday, anyone with a Nectar card will be able to access the offer and make even more savings by simply scanning their Nectar card at the till when in store. As reported by the Sun, Sainsbury's believes that this change will be beneficial to 8.5 million members, potentially saving them up to an impressive £150 a year. The discounts, which refresh every Friday, will give shoppers savings on everyday essentials and and new favourite items, offering 10 personalised offers at a time based on their shopping habits. Mark Given, chief marketing, data and sustainability officer at Sainsbury's, said: "We're leading the way by making loyalty personal. "Shoppers want to feel recognised and rewarded and while Nectar Prices are for everyone, we know our customers love an offer that is made just for them. "That's exactly what Your Nectar Prices delivers – it's about giving customers those extra savings on the products they love and buy most." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Sainsbury's Nectar loyalty scheme, which was first launched in 2002, is said to boast around 18 million active members across the UK. Initially beginning with just four partner companies, it has grown to become the largest loyalty scheme in the country, as it now includes over 14 companies and 400 online retailers. Not only can members earn points on their groceries when at the supermarket, but they can also do so on purchases made from an assortment of other retailers via the Nectar Online store such as Apple, Next, Sky and Waterstones. In 2023, the supermarket helped to offer lower prices to all of its loyalty members with the launch of its 'Nectar Prices', with the initiative said to offer discounts across hundreds of products from groceries to household items. Meanwhile, in other supermarket money-saving news, Asda has announced it will be offering shoppers the chance to win 'free fuel' at one of its forecourts when they find a 'hidden' ticket in store. From tomorrow, Friday, July 18 and running until Monday, August 25, the firm is celebrating its 60th anniversary by hiding 40 golden tickets among some of its products in stores, with lucky winners able to fill up for free at one of the grocer's forecourts for 12 months, excluding Express sites.

Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 To access the savings, customers need to register digitally with Nectar via the app or website Credit: Getty Your Nectar Prices gives Nectar cardholders special discounts on items they often buy. Previously, these discounts were only available for online orders or through the Smart Shop app or handset in-store. Starting next Friday, all shoppers can enjoy these discounts at the tills by simply scanning their Nectar card. Sainsbury's says this change will benefit over 8.5million more shoppers, potentially helping them save up to £150 a year on their grocery bills. Shoppers will receive up to 10 personalised offers based on their buying habits. The discounts refresh every Friday, giving customers regular opportunities to save on essentials and discover new favourites. To access the savings, customers need to register digitally with Nectar via the app or website. Once registered, they can unlock their offers before shopping, redeeming them at supermarket checkouts or online. Mark Given, chief marketing, data and sustainability officer at Sainsbury's, said: "We're leading the way by making loyalty personal. "Shoppers want to feel recognised and rewarded and while Nectar Prices are for everyone, we know our customers love an offer that is made just for them. Sainsbury's scraps in-store changing rooms leaving shoppers furious "That's exactly what Your Nectar Prices delivers – it's about giving customers those extra savings on the products they love and buy most." More than one million customers already use Your Nectar Prices every week, saving over £60million in the past year. Now that personalised discounts are available at the tills, Sainsbury's hopes to help even more shoppers save money on their weekly groceries. Customers will still benefit from Nectar Prices, which offer discounts on thousands of selected products for all Nectar cardholders when they shop. How does the Nectar scheme work? UNDER the Nectar card scheme, customers collect points when buying certain products or goods, in-store and online. You earn 1 Nectar point for every £1 you spend at Sainsbury's and 1 point for every litre of fuel bought at Sainsbury's petrol stations. You can also collect points with other partners like Esso and eBay. To start, download the Nectar app to register and get an e-Nectar Card. Simply swipe your card whenever you shop to collect points, which can be used to save money on future purchases. Each point is worth 0.5p, so 500 points will give you £2.50 off. As a Nectar member, you also get access to Nectar Prices, offering discounts on selected products when you scan your card at checkout or add it to your online shop. Plus, with Your Nectar Prices, you'll receive personalised discounts on items you regularly buy. Boost your nectar points The Nectar app is an easy way to bag extra money off and boost your points total. And more points means more discounts. Sainsbury's offers Through the app you can also add special Sainsbury's offers to your account. These offers typically give extra bonus points for buying particular items. Or you can multiply points if you spend, for example, £60 online. The offers refresh each week usually on a Friday and you need to manually add or you will lose out. Nectar challenges Sainsbury's offers various challenges through Nectar throughout the year. For example, the fruit and veg challenge gives shoppers the chance to earn extra points when they buy qualifying items. You could expect to earn an extra 1,000 bonus points through the challenges. However, make sure you're only buying items that you were intending to purchase or plan to use, otherwise you'll be wasting cash. Games When logging on to the app, users are occasionally offered the chance to rub the screen to reveal extra points that are added to their account. This can be as little as five points - but every extra point counts. You'll need to opt in each time to win so keep your eyes peeled when logging on to the app. Partner offers You can also get special offers to collect bonus points at Nectar partners through the app. For example, you may be offered an extra 200 points for filling your car at Esso. You will usually need to 'load' these offers to your account or you won't collect the bonus points. Find out more in our ultimate Nectar guide.
