Understanding Supermarket Offers

At Cataloguethisweek, we centralize various types of promotions to help you save. Here’s a breakdown of what you can typically find:

Weekly Ads & Flyers

This is the most common type of promotion. Supermarkets release a new flyer each week (e.g., the Aldi offers this week) showcasing discounted items. These are your primary tool for planning a shopping trip and saving money on groceries, electronics, and household goods.

Catalogue Specials

Larger stores, like Makro or Checkers, often release more extensive catalogues that are valid for a longer period. These catalogues feature a wider range of products, often including big-ticket items. The Makro specials are a perfect example of this.

Digital Coupons

Many retailers now offer digital coupons through their apps or websites. These can be clipped and applied at checkout for instant savings. They often stack with existing sales from the weekly flyer.

Loyalty Programs

Programs like Pick n Pay's Smart Shopper or Sainsbury's Nectar Card reward you for your continued business. You can earn points, get exclusive member pricing, and receive personalized offers.

BOGO (Buy One, Get One) Deals

A classic promotion where you buy one item and get a second one free or at a reduced price. These are great for stocking up on non-perishable items.

By combining these different offer types, you can achieve maximum savings on your shopping. Visit cataloguethisweek.com to find all these deals in one place!
