Bargain Brita at ASDA!

thriftyjojo

Hi all

I was in my local Asda yesterday (Chatham) and found a BRITA Aluna water filter jug for £5. So, I bought it! Amazon are selling similar for about £14. It comes with one Maxtra cartridge which are the new water filtration cartridges and easier to get hold of than the older ones! My friend and I were thrilled to enjoy chilled, filtered water at such a bargain price.

They were also selling a Braun 2000w hairdryer for £7 - wish I'd got one now when I used my 1400w this morning...!

Hopefully this will be the same in Asda's throughout the land? Not sure if you can get online though.

Slapps

just to say that the water jug is £10 online so good bargin

These are more a loss leader, once you hav ethe jug you buy into the filters for ever more...

Boots do universal filters far cheaper than Brita (and usually 3 for 2) that fit the old style filters (round ones).

Only £1.94 per Maxtra cartridge if you buy 12...

Hmm

12 for £24 has to be an Amazon spacial price, they are £40 in other amazon places and £15 for 3 from the same company, probably a missprice. Generally they are a fiver a cart. Even the Boots own brand one is £4.40

gghh

Oooh thanks I need a new hairdryer!

I have a that jug (was £10 when I bought it!!) and ASDA and Tesco often have offers on the Maxtra cartridges

My local asda is doing this however the cartridges are also on offer as our kettle takes these for £5 for two so picked up two packets - just a thought if anyone needs them

It's definitely not a misprice.
