Sober October is a great time to relax, try different activities, and set new goals. That’s why we’ve put together this guide to help you successfully complete the month and spend a little less along the way.

How do I stay motivated throughout the month?

It can be tempting to give up as the darker nights creep in, but don’t give up! Celebrating your progress along the way is important. So here are 3 key tips to help you stay motivated during Sober October:

1. Set clear goals, that are realistic and achievable

2. Break them into milestones, like giving yourself a reward for completing each week

3. Partner up with friends, family or even colleagues, to keep each other accountable

And most importantly, don’t be too hard on yourself if you do slip up! It doesn’t mean you’ve failed, you can use this to reflect and refocus on your journey.

What are some good alternatives to alcohol?

Being alcohol-free doesn’t mean you have limited options. You can find non-alcoholic beers and wines, or mocktails just about everywhere. Here are some of our favourites to try:

Grab some mocktails and earn 2.5% cashback at Asda or 3.5% cashback at Sainsbury’s

Enjoy flavoured soda water with 50% off at DASH

Detox and earn 3% cashback at Presscription Juices

Boost your mornings with 20% off Jimmy’s Iced Coffee

Can I still socialise during Sober October?

Absolutely! It’s a great opportunity to try some activities that don't revolve around alcohol, like getting a coffee, going for a hike, or grabbing a gym buddy. Staying connected with others, trying alternatives, keeping the right mindset, and celebrating your wins are all great ways to help you complete Sober October. Remember it’s about progress, not perfection.
