I'm not 100% sure if the limit in Sainsbury's has increased to £45, but I'm sure I recently did a £31 shop using the SmartShop POS using Google Pay.

You're thinking of the contactless card limit. The Google Pay and Apple Pay limit at Sainsbury's is £999.Martin Phillp wrote: ↑Sun 17 May, 2020 02.02 I'm not 100% sure if the limit in Sainsbury's has increased to £45, but I'm sure I recently did a £31 shop using the SmartShop POS using Google Pay.
What's the deal with refunds on Google Pay / Apple Pay?bilky asko wrote: ↑Sun 17 May, 2020 09.40 You're thinking of the contactless card limit. The Google Pay and Apple Pay limit at Sainsbury's is £999.
I once paid for something in Argos on Apple Pay but when they brought it out realised it was too small so asked for a refund. They had no way to refund me unless I inserted my debit card (and I didn't have my wallet) so had to take a gift voucher as a refund.

My local Sainsbury's has been struggling to offer any eggs at all lately. Now the only ones available are an own-brand 12 pack of bright white-shelled eggs. They are wheeled into place on plastic pallets and the packaging is clear plastic as opposed to a normal cardboard egg box. Seems odd - is everyone really still baking that much more, and having eggs for breakfast more often?
Nah, they're getting bought up to throw at Dominic Cummings when he appears.scottishtv wrote: ↑Mon 25 May, 2020 10.59 My local Sainsbury's has been struggling to offer any eggs at all lately.

Egg demand up 30%. The white ones are the ones McDonald's and the like normally use but aren't apparently:scottishtv wrote: ↑Mon 25 May, 2020 10.59 My local Sainsbury's has been struggling to offer any eggs at all lately.

I didn't realise they were so unpopular. The essential ones I get from Waitrose have always been white.

Just realised these bags are now history, for which I am thankful.
They've also corrected the slogan on their new, classier green food bags (removing the 'any').
