Sainsbo's is a casual British nickname for Sainsbury's, one of the UK's largest supermarket chains. It follows the British habit of adding a playful possessive 's and slightly mangling a brand name to make it feel more familiar and less corporate — similar to 'Tesco' becoming 'Tezzas' in some circles. The term is affectionate and gently humorous in register, the kind of thing said in everyday conversation rather than written down. Its placement in a 'Tech' category is a clear data error; it belongs firmly in everyday British life.
