Make sure you’re aware of the latest changes in your favourite supermarket
Supermarkets including Tesco, Asda, Morrisons and Sainsbury’s have all introduced new changes to stores over the last few weeks.
This includes tweaks to loyalty schemes, new charges for items that used to be free, and lower prices for shoppers. We round up all the changes for each supermarket to see how they affect you.
Tesco
Tesco has introduced several new measures recently. The first big change comes after Tesco lost its appeal against a ruling that it infringed Lidl over the use of its yellow circle on a blue background for its Clubcard Prices promotions.
Tesco was told to change the design and has started to rollout an updated version on its app. The yellow circle on a blue background has been replaced with a rectangle design with curved edges, but in the same yellow and blue colours.
The supermarket has also introduced a new “Best of British” page on its website to help support local farmers. Finally, as part of a new trial, Tesco has started charging 10p for hangers across some of its UK stores. The grocer said a small number of stores were taking part in the trial but did not share exact numbers or which stores they were.
Morrisons
Morrisons is expanding its quiet hours to run between 2pm to 3pm every Monday to Thursday. Quiet hours are already implemented between 9am and 10am on Saturdays, and the first hour of trade on Sundays.
The supermarket is also introducing a new loyalty scheme feature with “hyper-personalised” offers for customers who use its More Card app. “My Points Boosters” offers shoppers the chance to take on challenges – such as reaching certain spend milestones – based on their shopping patterns.
Morrisons is also rolling out new children’s trolleys and checkouts across more of its stores after a successful trial. The child checkouts are supervised by a Morrisons member of staff and children are shown how to scan their shopping.
Sainsbury’s
Sainsbury’s has introduced new Low Everyday Prices on over 1,000 products. The offering includes popular brands such as PG Tips, Quaker Oats, Sensodyne Toothpaste and Washing Powder.
However, you should still always compare prices online using a shopping tool like Trolley.co.uk. Low Everyday Prices replaces the Price Lock campaign, but Sainsbury’s will still run its Aldi Price Match initiative and Nectar Prices.
Asda
Asda has announced plans to offer an online prescription service online and in stores with online firm Pharmacy2U. Shoppers can currently manage their prescriptions online and order medicines for home delivery, but they’ll soon be able to order prescriptions for collection at 232 Asda branches.
Aldi
Aldi has changed the packaging on its own-label toothbrushes to cut down on plastic waste. The supermarket has replaced the plastic and card packaging with a cardboard alternative on its two-packs of Dentitex Soft and Whitening toothbrushes.
The change will help remove an estimated 17 tonnes of plastic packaging per year.
