The ability to transfer freely between Nectar and Avios at a decent rate is one of the best things that’s happened in the points/miles world here in the UK over the last couple of years. It means there are effectively now many more ways to collect Avios, and provides a ‘floor’ value of 0.8p for those Avios (the value you can get by transferring to Nectar and spending at Sainsbury’s/Argos/eBay). It also means that occasional bonus point opportunities crop up that otherwise wouldn’t…

For example, if you convert just 1,600 Nectar points to Avios, you can receive double Nectar points at Sainsbury’s until the end of the month.

If you sign up to auto-exchange, you could earn double points at Argos too.

You can read the full terms and conditions below, but the only thing I can see that you really need to be aware of is, “Eligible participants will only receive 2x Nectar points if, at the end of campaign period, the points conversion has not been reversed”

Bottom line

This is a quick and easy way to earn double Nectar points / Avios on your shopping this month. Just make sure that you don’t reverse any transfers before the end of June.
