Advantages: Uses Cellnet backbone, cheap, short contract Disadvantages: International roaming expensive
Sainsbury’s first introduced their mobile phone programme some time ago, but some early teething problems have prevented them from really selling it. This seems to be over now and the deal is better that ever.
The basic idea is that each month, they rate and compare your usage to 26 pay-monthly calling plans from the four network providers: BT Cellnet, One2One, Orange, and Vodafone. You pay the lowest price they find. So for example, ... ...calls, your bill will be based on the competitors tariff s that are bet for that type of call and you pay price that is the lowest. If you make a few calls during the day and in the evening you might be matched to an all-talk 60 type tariff. You pay the lowest fee.
Their network piggybacks on the Cellnet network – one that I’ve found to be very reliable, especially when compared to One2no-One.
Sainsbury’s first introduced their mobile phone programme some time ago, but some early teething problems have prevented them from really selling it. This seems to be over now and the deal is better that ever.
The basic idea is that each month, they rate and compare your usage to 26 pay-monthly calling plans from the four network providers: BT Cellnet, One2One, Orange, and Vodafone. You pay the lowest price they find. So for example, if you’re calling involves a lot of evening and weekend calls, your bill will be based on the competitors tariff s that are bet for that type of call and you pay price that is the lowest. If you make a few calls during the day and in the evening you might be matched to an all-talk 60 type tariff. You pay the lowest fee.

When you subscribe, you get a free Nokia 3310 (though other phones are available for extra). There’s a small connection fee of £19.95 and a p&p charge of £4.95. Your initial contract is for only 3 months and you can keep the phone for good if you keep the contract for 6 months, otherwise you have to return it. If, when you first get the service you don’t like it, there’s a 14 day cooling off period where you can return the phone and cancel the contract without penalty.
You automatically get a fully itemised bill.
Disadvantages are that for some with very low call use, they might be better on a pay as you go tariff as the Sainsbury’s scheme is based on monthly schemes – meaning that even if you made no calls you would pay about £10 – the lowest contract tariff. However, bear in mind that you do get a free phone worth about £100 (to keep after 6 months).
I found it quite expensive to do international roaming too. You can’t sign up for the discounted rate that Cellnet do for £2.50 per month.
I’ve had some problems getting my phone bill too, though this is being resolved, apparently.
All in all, for most users, it’ll be all they ever need – and you can kind of feel smug that you’re getting best of all networks.

Advantages: Fresh food all the time, presented perfectly. Disadvantages: None really, but delivery would be great.H
Sainsburys for me is simply the best supermarket because the quality is ALWAYS PERFECT.
That is my main reason but its not only that.
Sainsbury's staff are superbly trained to deal with the public and nothing is too much trouble for them.
Stores always have plenty of special offers, particularly "buy one get one free deals" which l think offer the best value of all deals.
There is a store very close to my home and offers everything you could need in one shop.
Unlike the other top supermarkets Sainsburys is consistent in its quality of food and that has got to be the number one reason to shop there.
I love it!!
The ads with Jamie Oliver may be daft but Sainsburys are not!He is a brilliant young chef and who could have done a better job?
He is the perfect advert for a supermarket. ...
Advantages: You can collect points in many companies Disadvantages: should have more partners
There are many loyalty cards in the world. Nectar Card would be a special one because it includes many companies together. It was innovative in loyalty cards filed.
Basically Nectar allows you to collect points on things you do anyway, such as shopping, filling up your car with fuel, or going out for meal even heating your home.
I have used the card for almost one year. Sainsbury's mainly is my points source. When I shop in Sainsbury's, one pound I spent brings 2 Nectar points. 200 nectar points Value is equal one pound. I aslo completed a survey on Sainsbury's website then I got 50 points on my Nectar Card.
When I toped up my car in Sainsbury's fuel station I collected points too. BP is the another partner too, but I just used it occasionally. I also got points from AA for my car insurance.
Because I use EDF for my ...

Advantages: Good taste & cheap Disadvantages: None
If you want a good cheap Luxury Christmas Pudding with loads of fruit and quite a bit of alcohol I recommend Mrs Peeks. You can buy it at your local Aldi store and costs £2.99 for a 900g one. It comes in its own bowl and cooks like all the others on the market. It is a lot cheaper than most others on the market eg Sainsburys have one on special offer at £2.49 for 450g.
It has brandy, sherry and cider in it so it does have a reasonable alcohol flavour.
We tried this last year and it was fine, I have already bought one for this year. ...
