EXPERT TIP |
"Loyalty schemes are big business for supermarkets. Many have changed in recent years, so they're no longer simply about collecting points but instead now offer exclusive discounts, rewards, charity donations and competitions to loyal shopper. Our research reveals you could save between 50p (with Sainsbury's Nectar) and £5 (Iceland) for every £100 you spend when you're using a supermarket loyalty scheme. But these savings could easily be cancelled out if the shop's prices are higher than those of its competitors." |
