I feel ASDA are suckered
... I felt a little suckered the other day when I realised my '3 for £2' only saved me 4p ...
http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=99096 Today however I feel ASDA have messed up huge ... Ok Walkers 'Sensations' crisps ... £1.49 per pack or £1 for two ... er ... how does that work .... Needless to say I picked up 2 packets, not one ... and sure enough on my receipt was a 'multibuy' saving of -£1.98 ... Last edited by Blue_SV650S; 06-11-07 at 05:43 PM. |

Re: I feel ASDA are suckered
Best one I ever heard of was a mate who rarely did the shopping had to do so for some reason.
Thinking he was clever he noted the 3 for price of 2 on baked beans. So he took one can out of a four pack - ended up buying 3 for the price of 4. Wot a prize plonker!! |

Re: I feel ASDA are suckered
My mate borrowed my coat the other day and as mates do,he went through the pockets.
Glad he did ,because he found my Asda receipt and spotted that the robbing gits had charged me £32 for a tin of peas. Marches straight back down there waving my receipt like a loon Last edited by Frank; 06-11-07 at 06:46 PM. |

Re: I feel ASDA are suckered
Ah, at last one man who understands simple business and economics.
I was behind a guy in a petrol staion queue who was just buying a small bottle of coke. The guy at the till told him its only 10p more if you take 2...and the guy in the queue freaked out at him!! Calling him a robbing git, said why should i have to buy a 2nd one? etc etc Errrm, if you're never, ever EVER gonna buy another bottle of coke then fair point keep your measly 10p in your pocket. but if you're only gonna buy another one later sometime then take the 2nd one you idiot!!! Some people take good advantage of loss leaders, others get suckered in by them.....this guy was too dime to get it i think, lol.

Re: I feel ASDA are suckered
Thats why i've got 2 MASSIVE 2kg tubs of margarine in the fridge, I only wanted one medium one but at BOGOF it means I dont have to buy any for about 2 months saving me a good few quid.
