Sainsbury’s Shopper Feels Like a Lottery Winner After Surprise Delivery
It’s not every day that an online grocery order feels like hitting the jackpot, but that’s exactly what happened to one lucky Sainsbury’s customer. A woman recently went online to share her unexpected good fortune after her grocery delivery brought her not one, but two legs of lamb — even though she had paid for just one.
She posted her story on Reddit, saying she “felt like a lottery winner this morning,” and shared a photo of her kitchen counter proudly displaying the extra leg of lamb. Considering that each leg was worth around £14.84 and £18.24 for Nectar card holders — and even more for regular customers — it’s easy to understand her excitement. In an age when online orders sometimes arrive with missing items or puzzling substitutions, this surprise felt like a rare moment of grocery luck.

The story quickly gained traction, with Reddit users chiming in with jokes, congratulations, and their own shopping mishaps. One commenter humorously warned her to hide the bonus leg in case Sainsbury’s came knocking to reclaim it, quipping, “They don’t have a leg to stand on.” Another recalled getting extra items in their order before, including a mysterious roll of tape that wasn’t supposed to be there.
As more users joined the discussion, funny memories of accidental windfalls surfaced. One person said their Asda order was marked as canceled — only for it to arrive a day early. Another confessed they once got refunded twice for a damaged Tesco order while keeping everything else. Speculation even started brewing about how these unexpected treats happen, with some joking that maybe a kind-hearted employee decided to spread a bit of festive cheer.
With Christmas fast approaching, Sainsbury’s has already opened up its delivery slots for the holiday season. Customers can now book delivery dates between December 18 and 24, with flexibility to edit their orders until 11 p.m. the night before. It’s a busy time for supermarkets — but as this lucky customer’s story shows, sometimes the digital grocery gods throw in a little extra joy with your holiday roast.
What began as a routine order ended up sparking laughter and positivity online, reminding everyone that even small surprises can make an ordinary day feel like a big win. For one shopper, it wasn’t just a simple delivery — it truly felt like winning the lottery, one extra leg of lamb at a time.
