    Does anyone know if these are just scanning at the wrong price (like the Bassets Allsorts) or if they are showing as £1.51 on the shelf? thanks :D

  • Ordered them online (much easier) after a wild goose chase around stores

    Went to the Middlebrook Asda (bolton) where they were tagged at £1.51 but sold out

    Then to Leigh Asda where they said £4.99 on the shelf but none left, asked at customer service and they had some in the back. However after countless price checks they could find no evidence of a price reduction... I had no idea with consumer rights etc if there was anyway I should/could have got these at the price they were at Middlebrook Asda- anyone know?:confused:

    The shelf price is clearly labelled £1.51 for pack of 4, although non in my local Gateshead store. Will try again tomorrow morning in case they have stocked up, although there was only a small space for them so I think this is a bit of marketing hype.

    It is also available online as is stated above.

    Bishop Auckland Asda were sold out and the shelf still stated £4.93.

    There were a few peeps there looking for the same thing while I watched from a distance :D

  • Checked my 3 local stores.

    Birchwood; marked up in white @ £5.42, scanned at £4.98
    Warrington; marked up in yellow @ £1.51, but had sold out.
    Westbrook; marked up in white @ £1.51, but had sold out.

    I think it'll be a race tomorrow morning to see if the price updates in Birchwood!

    Hi

    I got the last one at Fleetwood. The price wasn't marked on the shelf but paid £1.51.

    Wierd, three on the shelf at Scun-thorpe marked on SEL at £4.50, asked checkout to scan one, scanned at £1.50, went got all three packs, all 3 scanned at £4.50 and refused to honour it so I left them. Supervisor didn't know about offer and thought must have just scanned one bottle originally from the four pack :mad:

    I ordered some last night with some other stuff to take the order to just over £50 so I could get free delivery. I've been back to Asda online this morning - thought I'd tick to accept substitutes but couldn't find how to do it, but my order now says £92!!
