Nectar and Sainsbury’s have been sending out emails trailing a promotion starting on 1st June, where shoppers can earn bonus Nectar Points (and therefore Avios…) just for buying fruit and veg.

“Putting more fruit and veg on your plate isn’t just good for you, it can be good fun too. So, fresh from last year’s big success, we’re bringing back the great big fruit & veg challenge. It’s here to help you top up on fibre, vitamins, minerals and Nectar points, and show you that whether it’s fresh, frozen, dried or canned, fruit and veg tastes fab…

The great big fruit & veg challenge lets you collect loads of bonus points and can help to make mealtimes healthier. There’s up to 1050 points up for grabs, so get involved by simply opting in through your Nectar app. Then just pop more fruit and veg in your basket from 1 to 28 June – it’s easy-peasy.”

Bottom line

Keep an eye out next week for the full details. Whether this is just a marketing gimmick, or a genuinely good deal remains to be seen – but at least it’s finally the right weather for lots of salads and picnics!
