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

I got it. I used to be in there most days before I started working from home because it was near the office but now I go once a week and spend much less overall so I wonder if they use it to incentivise people like me to go back rather than to reward people who spend plenty anyway.

I got it, but only received an email yesterday about it. nothing showed in the app so re-checked the email to make sure it wasn’t scam, read the t&c’s - turns out you have to make sure your app is up to date!

Atswimtwogirls · 22/11/2023 19:26

I got it..didn't realise it was random!

AbondonedThemePark · 22/11/2023 19:26

I got it. Converted £50 of points to a £100 voucher.

I only knew about it because I randomly looked at my Nectar app to see how many points I had!

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.

You have one month to spend the voucher after you do the swap.

ACAC2023 · 22/11/2023 19:29

I just updated the app and instantly got the Count up to Christmas Challenge. Thanks @Iwishicouldflyfarfaraway

icebearforpresident · 22/11/2023 19:45

I got my email about it yesterday and converted 4000 points to a £40 voucher. Ended up in store today and bought all the Christmas sweets, wrapping paper etc and it converted them again. I still have a voucher showing in my nectar app and having tried to use the voucher code on my weekly shop tonight it seems to have worked, so I might have gotten £80? Shopping not coming until Friday so will be interested to see if the voucher actually comes off them.

BigBundleOfFluff · 22/11/2023 19:50

I got it. I didn't get the countdown to Xmas one though. I do have a delivery pass and a Xmas slot booked??
I also used to double up every year til they stopped.

GreenDay9irl · 22/11/2023 20:03

I didn’t get either but I very rarely use Sainsbury’s. I collect my points by Argos and eBay.

dutysuite · 22/11/2023 20:14

Didn’t know about it but I did have the count down to Christmas and it gave me 3k points.

GOODCAT · 22/11/2023 20:16

Didn't get it

NoHeavenNoMore · 22/11/2023 20:18

I had no idea this was random! I went onto my Nectar app after seeing an email saying double your points... I got £40 voucher after converting £20 in points. A lovely surprise to help me out at Christmas. Wish everyone else could have got it too.

Snowconecanfly · 22/11/2023 20:19

Nothing here. Have now booked my Christmas shop online with a different supermarket.

I didn't get that. I guess they're doing different offers with different people.

CirreltheSquirrel · 22/11/2023 20:52

I got it! I used an £80 voucher on last week's shop and have another £20 left to spend. I had about £200 worth of points and was thinking I should get round to spending some of them.

Just had a look on the app and mine was actually count UP to Christmas - I’ve just read the terms and it says “complete a number of tasks on the Nectar app, which are personal to you and based on your purchasing history”

stepintochristmas1 · 22/11/2023 21:07

We got this too , my husband was going on about it and how good it was at xmas . Thought everyone got it.

Vebrithien · 22/11/2023 21:11

I got it, but only noticed because I had a push notification come up on my phone.

I let my colleague know, and she also had it

baileybrosbuildingandloan · 22/11/2023 21:14

It does say on ML release that's they are trialling it, so that will be why. They will evaluate its success afterwards.

@baileybrosbuildingandloan

Yes I did notice that, but I was curious as I asked a decent cross section of our social group and no one had received it, so I thought I would ask here to do a further unscientific cross section of the country. 😂

I am aware I need to get out more. 😂😂

OhmygodDont · 23/11/2023 17:06

I got the count up one so 3k points if I do the tasks.

BakedBeansforabrain · 23/11/2023 17:11

I got it, I didn’t know it was random.

got a double up from £30 to £60

hedgehoglurker · 23/11/2023 17:51

Also didn't realise if was random. I got it and doubled my max, which was £20 to £40.

jannier · 23/11/2023 18:00
