Ocado Life Brief: Research - Sainsbury's Delivery Service

Sainsbury's offer online shopping to customers.

A delivery fee is included and varies depending on the date and time of the delivery slot.
From 08:00 - 12:00, the highest charge this week is £6.50 while the lowest charge is £2.00 if your order is over £40, otherwise the delivery charge for orders under £40 defaults to £7.00. The minimum order is £25 otherwise you are unable to checkout. Currently, if your order is over £100, you qualify for free delivery if delivered on Monday to Thursday after 2pm.
For your delivery to include carrier bags an additional fee of 40p per order is included.

Morning Delivery Slot Prices from October 21 - October 27

However Sainsburys do offer a delivery pass which can be useful to customers who online shop frequently at Sainsburys. 


At Sainsburys, as long as you spend a minimum of £40, you will not be charged a delivery fee.


Sainsbury's offer two delivery passes. 

Anytime Pass
Delivery anytime 7 days a week for:
  • 12 Months = £60.00 (£5.00/month)
  • 6 Months = £35.00 (£5.83/month)
  • 3 Months = £20.00 (£6.67/month)

Midweek Pass
Delivery anytime only on Tuesday, Wednesday and/or Thursday for:
  • 12 Months  = £30.00 (£2.50/month)
  • 6 Months = £18.00 (£3.00/month)
  • 3 Months = £10.00 (£3.33/month)


A particular aspect of Sainsburys online shopping that I liked was the dietary profile. 
It enables you to create a dietary profile where you can add products that you may be allergic to or are avoiding due to dieting. These foods will be flagged as you shop so that you can easily avoid products  without having to consistently check the ingredients list. I think this is a great idea as this can make online shopping a more personalised experience and one that is easier for people with dietary needs/requirements.

[Research] Traditional Poster Design (4CTA1214)

Image
As you can see from the superman poster, there are only four main colours used which includes red, blue, yellow and brown. All elements are filled in with block colours with no shading which was a common colour theme for traditional posters of this kind. This poster may have been used to advertise a new Superman comic or movie depending on the year it was created. The expression on the characters face fits the title shown on the poster explaining that he is returning. This poster advertised Coca Cola, and looks as though this specific poster was used in the USA - due to the currency used. The whole aim of the poster is to incorporate this drink into working peoples daily lives. This is seen by the slogan, 'Work refreshed' and the small graphics on the bottom right of the poster. Displayed is a man working in a factory environment and a lady is working in an office environment both drinking cola during their breaks - to feel refreshed. In some ways the bottle and
