A quick poll of friends done over the last two days and nobody has.

No! And I'm offended as I spend loads there. Sainsburys, you've gone right down hill what with assuming we're all thieves and being selective with your vouchers 😡

MagpiePi · 22/11/2023 15:00

It says you need a minimum of 2000 points to be eligible. Is that the reason they didn't get it?

TerrysChocolateOrange · 22/11/2023 15:01

Nope, not in this case, out of all of us we had the least points and they were worth £70.

Puzzling.

Oh how annoying, is it just randomly selected then? I have lots of points and didn't get this. My friend did though.

TerrysChocolateOrange · 22/11/2023 15:15

Crisps and cheese, your friend is the only one I have heard of.

Yes it is randomly selected.

I didn't get it and am annoyed as I spend a fortune at Sainsburys and have loads of points.

FairlyOddmother · 22/11/2023 15:56

I got it, and I didn't realise it's random. Seems really unfair. (Still spending the free ££ though!)

VernonScrips · 22/11/2023 16:07

Yes! I didn’t know about this!

Frostine · 22/11/2023 16:12

We have shopped in Sainsburys for 20 years . We let our points build up and 10 years ago used them to buy a tv . Since then we've never claimed a single point back and have built up £ 748 ish points worth ( dh jokes it will be a part of our pension ) so you'd think we'd receive the invite . But nope not a word. I've screenshot my balance as proof . Remember this is 10 years worth !

My son and his partner got it. They paid £10 for a £110 shop.

LakeTiticaca · 22/11/2023 16:17

No but I know plenty who are pissed off that they didn't get it

thelonemommabear · 22/11/2023 16:18

I got it - I didn't know it was random?

Spinet · 22/11/2023 18:12

I've just cancelled my Sainsbury's delivery pass. They can give their vouchers to whomever they like of course! Just as I can shop where I like. I've been meaning to move since they got rid of so many staff, introduced the receipt scans at the tills that make you feel like they definitely think you want to steal from them, and cheat on the substitution guarantee by giving you smaller sizes. So now I will actually swap to ocado.

Hapagirl48 · 22/11/2023 18:19

I didn’t either and I’m pissed! It’s stupid that they randomly pick. I’ll probably change anyway because my big Sainsbury’s just took out all but 2 of their staffed tills and put in a bunch of the self serve ones.

NoWordForFluffy · 22/11/2023 18:20

I didn't get it, but did get Count up to Christmas. Not sure which I'd have preferred, tbh!

Star81 · 22/11/2023 18:22

I got it. £40 worth of points converted to a £80 voucher. Didn’t realise it was random though and only found out because I went into my nectar app, no email etc telling me

HunterHearstHelmsley · 22/11/2023 18:28

Not showing in my app either. I was waiting for the double up for the Christmas wine 😭I have 15,000 points so definitely not because of that. I've been dutifully doing the Count up to Christmas too, grrr.

CatkinToadflax · 22/11/2023 18:40

I got it. Hadn’t realised that it’s random selection! I received an email about it yesterday.

Do some people get both promotions, do we think?! Xmas Shock

Mummyme87 · 22/11/2023 19:00

My DH got the countdown to Christmas this year, he has £90 off nectar.
i got nothing

Thesearmsofmine · 22/11/2023 19:00

I got it, I didn’t realise it was random either. Seems a bit strange. I do shop there a couple of times a week, I wonder how it is decided.

ACAC2023 · 22/11/2023 19:12

I didn’t get it, get Sainsbury’s delivery every week.

Not sure what the Count up to Christmas is?

RubySunset82 · 22/11/2023 19:16

Gosh I’m angry at this I’ve got £144 of points I’ve been saving!!! How do I know? I’ve logged into the app

HappyHolidai · 22/11/2023 19:19

I got it, had assumed everyone had.

is there an expiry date on the voucher? Not sure I can spend double my points value before Christmas.
