Reviews of Nectar redemptions worth more than 0.5p per point – Days out

When redeeming your Nectar points, you are most likely to get just 0.5p per point which means you might as well use them to knock a couple of Pounds of your Sainsbury’s shop. There are, however, a few Nectar redemptions which claim to offer more than 0.5p per point of value.

Time to find out if these deals are as good as they claim to be.

Over the next couple of weeks we will be looking at each of these deals to see if you are genuinely getting a ‘premium’ reward when you book them.

You can find all Nectar redemption reviews here.

Today I want to look at various days out redemptions that give you 1p per point instead of the usual 0.5p.

There is currently a selection of 7 attractions where you get £5 worth for 500 Nectar points.

Some attractions accept a Nectar card as payment card at the till which means you don’t need to print off anything prior to your visit. If you don’t have enough points for the full price of a ticket, you can pay the rest by credit or debit card.

You can present Nectar Card at till here:

Alton Towers Resort

Chessington World Of Adventures Resort

Legoland Windsor Resort

Mdame Tussauds London

Warwick Castle

There are two attractions where you need to redeem your Nectar points for a ticket online in advance. In these cases you must have the full amount of Nectar points and cannot top up with cash.

You must redeem online prior to your visit here:

Legoland Discovery Center Manchester

Madame Tussauds Blackpool

Conclusion

Compared to the usual redemptions where you get 0.5p per point, you are getting a better deal redeeming for days out.

You will get 1p per point on the walk up price. If you don’t want to pre-book your tickets to be more flexible about when you go and would otherwise pay cash for the walk up price, you are genuinely getting twice as much for your points.

However, if you have a large Clubcard balance, it’s worth checking out the rate you would get using your Clubcard points instead of Nectar points. There are a couple of days out Clubcard redemptions where the redemption rate is more generous than the Nectar redemption.

We’ve reviewed many Clubcard redemptions on Shopper Points and you can find the list here.
