You can help make your money go further and spend less with a range of high street and online discounts, cashback and other offer.
My Shopping Discounts is the free way to get cashback or money off the things you buy – from your everyday supermarket shopping to holidays and electrical items.

As well as the fantastic MyShopping discounts available to you as an Anchor colleague, you also get access to some great corporate retail deals. Save on food shops, mobile phones and Office 365.
Everyone’s different when it comes to holidays – some like more time-off while others prefer less.
That’s why we we open a window each spring for colleagues on the Anchor payroll system to buy or sell up to five days of their annual leave (pro rata if part time).
