If you click a link with an * to go through to a provider, we may get paid. This usually only happens if you get a product from it. This is what funds our team of journalists, and keeps us free to use. Yet there are two crucial things you need to know about this.
- This never impacts our editorial recommendations – if it's in, it's in there because we independently rate it best.
- You'll always get as good a deal (or better) than if you went direct.

Sainsbury's deals

If you head into selected Sainsbury's stores (find your nearest), you can pick up a 'Taste Me, Don’t Waste Me’ box of surplus fruit and veg for £2. The boxes contain 'surplus' fresh fruit and vegetables that would have otherwise gone to waste.
Sainsbury's trialled these boxes in a few stores in January and has now extended the scheme to over 200 supermarkets. There's no exhaustive list, but it’s likely they'll be available in larger stores, rather than Local stores (you can't get them online).
If boxes are available, they'll be in the fresh produce aisle. Do note, they're subject to availability and what you'll actually get is completely random, though Sainsbury's did say typical contents could include: apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, courgettes, oranges, peppers, plums, red cabbage, and swede.
To give you a rough idea of how much of a saving you could make, we've made some calculations based on the products mentioned above:
- One pack Imperfectly Tasty Gala apples (six in pack) – normally 90p (15p each)
- One pack Fairtrade bananas (five in a pack) – normally 71p (14p each)
- One loose broccoli – normally £1.92
- One loose cauliflower – normally 95p
- One pack courgettes (500g) – normally £1.29
- Loose orange – normally 30p
- Loose red pepper – normally 50p
- One punnet of plums (400g) – normally 95p
- Loose red cabbage – normally 65p
- Loose swede – normally 65p
Based on the price of each individual item in the box, we've calculated that it would £8.82 to buy it all separately – so we reckon buying a box for £2 is a good deal.

There are always ways to save money at Sainsbury's* so even if there isn't a cracking deal out there that works for you, don't assume you can't cut your costs further.
Ways to save include:
- Supermarket coupons. Make sure you check out our supermarket coupons page to save on your shopping.
- Take the Downshift Challenge. The phrasing and language used hypnotises us into thinking the most costly is best. While the packaging looks more opulent, look beneath it and sometimes you won't be able to tell the difference (often it's even made in the same factory). Take our Downshift Challenge.
- Track if it's really a bargain. Most of us know just because a supermarket lists an item as "on offer", that doesn't mean it's cheap. The trouble has been sorting awesome offers from poor promos.
- Time trips right to bag huge yellow sticker discounts. If you spot a yellow sticker discount - fantastic. Grab it and use it quickly as it's a saving on perfectly good nosh. See when Sainsbury's normally reduces its produce in our Cheap Supermarket Shopping guide.
- Check out similar retailers, eg, Asda, Tesco and the other major supermarkets. If you're not committed to buying from Sainsbury's, check out our deals from Asda, Aldi, Tesco, Morrisons, Lidl and Waitrose, where they may have a better offer.
- Try haggling. We polled 1,400 MoneySavers to find out in which shops hagglers have most success. Supermarkets did feature, so it's worth a go. Find out more in our Haggle on the High Street guide.
- Had a problem with Sainsbury's? There’s a free online tool you can use to complain – it helps draft, manage and if necessary escalate your complaint. It’s offered by a firm called Resolver, which we like so much we work with it to help people get complaints justice – you can use it to complain to Sainsbury's*.
If you spot any hot deals out there we have missed (we are human after all!), please let us know in the MSE forum, email us at msedeals@moneysavingexpert.com or via Twitter @MSE_Deals.
