Nisa launches Great Bank Holiday Deals promo ahead of the weekend

Nisa retailers are helping shoppers to stock up on value treats ahead of the four-day weekend with Nisa’s Great Bank Holiday Deals promotion.

With many people looking to socialise at home over the long weekend, a selection of BWS lines, soft drinks and snacks are just some of the many items that will be available.


The promotion is supported by POS promotions including bus stops, shelf stripping and wobblers, and is also being advertised via the Nisa website and social media channels.

Offers included in the event are 12 x 330ml Pespi Max cans for £4, Kopparberg Strawberry and Lime 10 x 330ml at £10, selected four pack beers at £4.50, Pimms 70cl for £13, Pringles Sour Cream and Onion 200g at just £1.50 and Magnum White Chocolate 440ml packs for £2.50.

Philippe Rondepierre, Nisa’s head of marketing, said: “While the pandemic has meant that any bank holiday celebrations will be on a much smaller scale this year, shoppers will likely be looking to treat themselves with a drink or two over the weekend in the comfort of their own homes.

“We hope our bank holiday deals will support our retailers in capturing additional footfall and basket spend over the long weekend, as well as encourage shoppers to stock up on products to be enjoyed while socialising at home, whatever the weather.”

Safer alternatives to cigarettes could save millions of lives and billions of pounds, says think tank

Promoting safer alternatives to cigarettes could save 19 million years of life by 2030 and reduce smoking-related costs to taxpayers by up to £12.6 billion annually, a new report from the Adam Smith Institute (ASI) has revealed.

The think tank argues that the UK government's current approach to achieving a Smoke Free 2030 - defined as reducing smoking rates to 5 per cent or lower - is both illiberal and unworkable and will significantly set back progress against smoking related harm. The ASI warns that policies such as a generational tobacco ban, a new tax on vapes, and restrictions on heated tobacco products and flavours will hinder harm reduction efforts.
