Asked if the Nectar prices were genuine discounts, Roberts said: “They’re absolutely genuine great value prices for customers, what this is about is rewarding loyal customers.
“Is it a genuine discount?”
“Its genuine great value!”
So, no, they aren’t genuine discounts. Absolutely cop out avoid the question

I suspect that nectar prices are a way to get around the trading standards legislation that requires items on sale to have been offered at the higher price for 14 days. The nectar price isn’t a ‘sale’ so it doesn’t apply. Not that I have collected any evidence for this but it seems like my experience.
