Morrisons shoppers can bag freebies worth £30 through loyalty scheme perk
Scroll down to see what freebies are on offer CASH IN Morrisons shoppers can bag freebies worth £30 through loyalty scheme perk MORRISONS shoppers can bag free goodies worth up to £30 through its reward scheme. Customers with a More Card loyalty scheme can claim premium kitchenware for free through a lesser-known stamp promotion currently available in stores. 2 Morrisons is giving shoppers the chance to win freebies worth up to £30 Credit: Morrisons 2 Shoppers have until the end of next week to collect stamps Morrisons is giving shoppers the opportunity to continue collecting stamps until next Sunday, June 8, with redemption available until June 22. The supermarket giant is giving away Pyrex containers, including a 2.6L dish normally worth £30, to shoppers who rack up enough stamps. For every £10 spent in-store, you'll earn one stamp, and once you hit 30 or more, you can start trading them in for top kitchen gear completely free. One Morrisons worker spilled the beans in the Extreme Coupons and Bargains UK Facebook group, writing: "Lots of customers don't even know about this scheme, so it's been a nice surprise for them!" All you need to do is check your stamp balance, it's printed on the bottom of your receipt or visible in the More Card app and then head to the till with your chosen Pyrex item and scan your More Card. If you've got enough stamps, it's yours for free. The range includes handy tubs in sizes from 600ml to 2.6L, plus a pump to suck out air and keep your food fresher for longer. One happy shopper shared: 'I got the largest rectangle yesterday and still have some stamps left!' You'll need 30 stamps to bag a small item, 40 for a medium, and 50 for the top-of-the-range large dish, meaning you'd need to spend around £500 to earn the full set. But considering it's a freebie just for doing your usual food shop, savvy shoppers say it's 'always nice to have something for nothing'. Exploring Popular Supermarkets in the UK If you're not already a More Card member, you can sign up for free by downloading the app on Google Play or the App Store. And while you're collecting stamps, you'll still earn More Points as usual which can be converted into vouchers for money off future shops. You can find your nearest store using the store finder tool. Morrisons loyalty boss Kate Lavery said the new perk is a 'bonus layer' on top of points and discounts, giving customers even more bang for their buck. It comes after the supermarket giant has made a huge change to its loyalty scheme and shoppers can now earn EXTRA points towards their purchases. Morrisons originally scrapped its More Points scheme in 2021, rebranding as My Morrisons, but reversed the decision in 2023 after shopper demand. Now, Morrisons More Card holders can collect points with over 300 popular brands including eBay, Just Eat, Expedia, Asos, Very, and loads more. Once 5,000 More Points are collected, shoppers will be handed a £5 voucher – better known as a Morrisons Fiver – to redeem on their next shop in store or online. How to save money on your food shop Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save hundreds of pounds a year: Odd boxes - plenty of retailers offer slightly misshapen fruit and veg or surplus food at a discounted price. Lidl sells five kilos of fruit and veg for just £1.50 through its Waste Not scheme while Aldi shoppers can get Too Good to Go bags which contain £10 worth of all kinds of products for £3.30. Sainsbury's also sells £2 "Taste Me, Don't Waste Me" fruit and veg boxes to help shoppers reduced food waste and save cash. Food waste apps - food waste apps work by helping shops, cafes, restaurants and other businesses shift stock that is due to go out of date and passing it on to members of the public. Some of the most notable ones include Too Good to Go and Olio. Too Good to Go's app is free to sign up to and is used by millions of people across the UK, letting users buy food at a discount. Olio works similarly, except users can collect both food and other household items for free from neighbours and businesses. Yellow sticker bargains - yellow sticker bargains, sometimes orange and red in certain supermarkets, are a great way of getting food on the cheap. But what time to head out to get the best deals varies depending on the retailer. You can see the best times for each supermarket here. Super cheap bargains - sign up to bargain hunter Facebook groups like Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK where shoppers regularly post hauls they've found on the cheap, including food finds. "Downshift" - you will almost always save money going for a supermarket's own-brand economy lines rather than premium brands. The move to lower-tier ranges, also known as "downshifting" and hailed by consumer expert Martin Lewis, could save you hundreds of pounds a year on your food shop. How does the Morrisons More Card work? The Morrisons More Card lets you earn points on purchases which can be used to get money off future shops. Once you get to 5,000 points you can keep saving, or convert them into a voucher worth £5 to spend in-store or online. You can't earn loyalty points when buying certain products though, including tobacco, infant milk or formula and gift cards. The full list of excluded products is on the Morrisons website. The More Card also gives you access to personalised offers based on your shopping habits, including discounts on specific products or extra points on certain purchases. You can get a physical More Card and scan it at the till or swipe a virtual card via the app when shopping in-store.

Morrisons is making major change to all UK stores with new ‘premium' offers for shoppers
Check below to see if your Morrisons has shut for good SALE AWAY Morrisons is making major change to all UK stores with new 'premium' offers for shoppers Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MORRISONS has revealed a major change coming to all of its UK stores, with new "premium" offers for shoppers. The popular supermarket chain has announced a shift towards selling more premium products as part of the branch's overhaul. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Morrisons' new project called "Morrisons Magic" aims to improve customers' experiences Credit: Getty Andrew Staniland, the group trading director, told the Grocer: "The cirsper, cleaner look is underscoring our value credentials, together with a tighter focus on customer favourites, some great innovations and some wonderful new products." Morrisons' new project called "Morrisons Magic" aims to improve customers' experiences. The chain's launch of "Market Street" is part of its plan to modernise the brand. The change will focus on farm shop-style products, like value-added items such as foil trays for sauced, marinated, breaded, and ready-to-cook fish. Morrisons revealed that it hopes to make its Market Street more accessible to attract more "amateur home cooks". Their ready meal range will now include new world flavours, featuring a collaboration with Yo Sushi. Shoppers can enjoy a new £6 meal deal, a three-for-£5 fresh fruit offer, a pick 'n' mix bakery, and a tiered pizza deal. The major retailer is also introducing branded toys, with BrewDog, Coca-Cola, Pepsi and Myprotein features. Despite the major changes, shoppers were concerned after the supermarket giant announced plans to shut 72 fresh meat and fish counters, 52 cafés, 17 convenience stores, and 13 florists in a bid to cut costs. Morrisons revealed it will shut all 18 of its Market Kitchen grocery/takeaway fusion sites - first launched at its Canning Town store in 2019. Vodka to the Rescue: Morrisons' Unconventional Emergency Tactics It comes after the supermarket giant has made a huge change to its loyalty scheme and shoppers can now earn EXTRA points towards their purchases. Morrisons shoppers can now earn More Points even when they're not shopping at the supermarket– thanks to a brand-new perk launching this week. From today, Morrisons More Card holders can collect points with over 300 popular brands including eBay, Just Eat, Expedia, Asos, Very, and loads more. The Morrisons More Card already enables shoppers to bank points on selected products by scanning their More Card or app. Once 5,000 More Points are collected, shoppers will be handed a £5 voucher – better known as a Morrisons Fiver – to redeem on their next shop in store or online. Previously, shoppers could only get the points by buying items from the supermarket only. However, the change now means that customers can now bag rewards on everything from takeaways and clothes to gadgets and holidays. To get the points, customers need to sign in to the Morrisons More app or website, browse the full list of partner retailers, click through to their chosen brand and shop as usual. As long as the purchase is made through the Morrisons site or app, the points are tracked and added automatically. This new way to earn is digital-only, so points can only be collected on external purchases made through the app or website – not by shopping directly with the brand. The latest shake-up comes as part of Morrisons' push to reward loyal customers and make it quicker and easier to earn money off future shops.
