Morrisions
If you shop at Morrisons—even occasionally—the Morrisons More reward program is absolutely worth your time. It’s not just another points scheme. Hidden in plain sight is one of the best-kept secrets of budget grocery shopping in the UK: monthly challenges that can earn you up to £20 in points, often for buying things you actually need anyway.
What Is Morrisons More?
Morrisons More is the supermarket’s digital loyalty program, available through the app. You earn More Points on your shop, which are automatically converted into £5 vouchers to spend in-store or online. Pretty standard so far.
But what sets Morrisons apart is a feature tucked into the app called “My Points Boosters” — and if you're not already using it, you’re potentially missing out on £240 a year in free groceries.
How the Monthly Challenges Work
Each month, you’ll be given a choice of some spending-based challenges. These aren’t mix-and-match offers or gimmicks; they’re simple:
Spend £X on X during the month — get X,000 points.
That’s it. No fuss, no fine print. Just spend the minimum amount on the specified category, and the points are yours.
The challenges vary from month to month but often include categories like:
Tinned food
Frozen items
Cleaning products
Cereal and snacks
Morrisons bakery or chilled ranges
Best of all? A large number of these challenges are tied to Morrisons own brand, including their Savers range.
The Only Real Way to Get Discounts on Morrisons Savers
If you’re a fan of the Morrisons Savers products (and if you’re shopping on a budget, you really should be), you’ve probably noticed that they rarely, if ever, go on sale. But here’s the trick: when a monthly challenge is tied to a category like "spend £10 on canned food" or "£12 on frozen," you can often complete that challenge using Savers products.
So while those tins of chopped tomatoes might be 28p and never discounted further, by completing a challenge with them, you’re effectively getting a cashback-style discount that pushes the price lower than it ever appears on the shelf.
Why It’s a Win for Low-Waste, Low-Stress Shopping
One of the best things about this system is that it doesn’t encourage overspending or food waste. The challenges are based on categories, not volume. That means you can:
Buy shelf-stable essentials like tinned veg, dried pasta, or frozen peas
Stock up once and be done—no need to spread purchases across weeks
Store it all without rushing to use it up, unlike fresh produce offers
It’s especially useful if you’re feeding a family or sticking to a meal plan. You’re not being pushed into buying niche or expensive products you’ll never use—just core items that form the backbone of most meals.
Example: Turning 28p Tins into Profit
Let’s say one of your monthly challenges is:
Spend £10 on tinned food — get 2,000 points (worth £2)
That’s a 20% effective cashback. If you fill your trolley with Savers chopped tomatoes, baked beans, kidney beans, and sweetcorn, you could hit the threshold for under £10 and come away with more than 30 tins—and a voucher to use next month.
Final Thoughts
The Morrisons More monthly challenges are one of the few consistent ways to knock prices down on already rock-bottom own-brand items. If you’re someone who tracks spending, plans meals, or simply likes to feel smug when you beat the system, this is a no-brainer.
Set a reminder at the start of each month, open the app, check the four challenges, and plan a single shop to knock them all out in one go. Your future self—and your food budget—will thank you.
