Being a bit short of money this week I decided to go the cheap way and get our home delivery of shopping from Asdas. I usually go to Tescos and if I'm feeling a bit flush (or I want delicious organic food) I go to Waitrose. I've only been to Asda once but I think it was OK but not great. What an absolute farce. It was truly disastrous. The 'multibuys' I'd chosen were mainly not available so they just gave me less and charged me full price. The fruit and veg were packed under tins and were squished and squashed. But the worst thing? The substitutes....(packed amongst all other shopping so I couldn't find them to give them back) Obviously my order was processed and packed by a half wit. That's why when there was no 'Asda Tagliatelle' available they swapped it with ............ Lasagne Sheets. Yes! Lasagne sheets. No Asda Sparkling Water? Why don't you replace it with............ Still Water and some Cherryade! A bombay potato ready meal? Surely the ideal swap is ............. A SmartPrice tin of new Potatoes.....and on and on and on and on........ Any savings I thought I'd make will be actually costing me double as we go out to get what we actually ordered..... ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
