Sainsbury’s has been fined £45,500 for selling food at their Cwmbran, South Wales store that was out of date by more than 14 days.

The operators of the Nectar loyalty card used by Sainbury’s have also suffered some negative publicity after the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) upheld a complaint that bottles of wine shown as redeemable for Nectar points were different to the ones actually sent to Sainsbury’s customers.
