Share the Shopping Card and Shopping Card
Family off to uni? Need to help out a loved one? There's an easy way to make sure they're eating properly when you're not there to cook them something healthy. A Share the Shopping card or Shopping card from Sainsbury's means they'll always have funds to buy food – not to mention all those non-food essentials too! These gift cards are also the perfect start for student life (and peace of mind for you!).
How does it work?
The Sainsbury's Share the Shopping and Shopping Cards come in two-card parts which share one account. Both cards can be used to top up the account and spend money from the account. It's easy to use:- Pick up a Share the Shopping gift card or Shopping Gift card in store – you'll find them on the main Gift Card fixture in most supermarkets
- Load the card with the desired amount at the till and keep one of the two cards
- Give the other, second card to the recipient to spend in any Sainsbury's store or online at www.sainsburys.co.uk
- Reload the card at any time in-store
- The Share the Shopping and Shopping cards are not a credit or debit card, so only what is loaded onto the card can be spent
