Sainsbury's shoppers can save over £20 on their Easter roast by using a Nectar card at checkout, as one customer discovered when their £50 shop was reduced to just £30. The key is to input the free loyalty card details when ordering online or in-store to unlock exclusive Nectar prices.
The supermarket is offering a whole leg of lamb for £15.70 with Nectar, down from £33.40, making it better than half price. Other discounted items include Ocean Spray Mint Sauce at £1.35 (normally £1.80), Aunt Bessie's Yorkshire Puddings for £1.75 (down from £2.50), and Bisto Gravy Granules at £2.25 (reduced from £2.95).
Additional savings include Sainsbury's Sage Roast Onion and Shallot Stuffing at £1.90 (down from £2.40). Loose parsnips are price-matched with Aldi at £1.48 per kg, and roast potatoes are available for £6. The total for a full Easter spread came to £30.43 with Nectar, compared to £50.53 without.
For those who prefer alternatives to lamb, Sainsbury's also offers a Scottish salmon side for £10.80 (50% off) and a British pork crackling leg joint for £5.78 (down from £8.68). However, a beef roasting joint that was under £10 appears to be sold out.
Other supermarkets are also offering Easter deals: Cook provides a Lamb Easter Dinner Box for six at £77.45, while Iceland has roast dinner boxes for four at £30 (lamb) or £25 (chicken). Shoppers can find all Nectar prices on the Sainsbury's website.
