Three novels for a quid in Asda

I was in Asda this morning and found some paperback books reduced. These included a number of 'three in one' books including Tami Hoag, George Pelacanos and also (I think) Ian Rankin. These had stickers showing reduced from £14.99 to £3.
I picked up the Tami Hoag one and took it to the self scanning checkout where it scanned as being £1. I've never read anything by Tami Hoag before so I don't know if I'll like this or not by for a quid it's worth a go.

The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water

Have read some Tami Hoag and they are fine. Don't particularly remember the story but do tend to remember if I dislike an author so I can avoid them in future.0 -
Quick update. This morning they had a decent selection of books and packs of books all now showing as £1 on the SEL. This included a number of three in one books and multipacks as well as normal books.
Off the top of my head I remember seeing John Grisham, Alex Kava and Jonathan Kellerman but there were quite a few others. Also a three book set of Bratz books for the kids (the female ones at least!).The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water

Yes to the first part - and I prefer the Guardian to the second part
A little judgemental

I favour the Times, Charles - but then I shop at Tesco, Sainsbury and Morrison as well as Asda.......
not that it really matters - does it??
The books I got would be £6.99 each if bought separately, and I got 3 for £1 - and you think I'm stupid????Why does nobody say Thank You anymore??:mad:Debt Free as of September 2011 :jSealed Pot 2009 number 334 - £100 Saved! yey!!Sealed Pot 2010 number 334 - £116.51 Saved! Yey!! YIPPEE!!0 -
just to add, Ian Rankin books still 10 for £10 at the Book People, plus p and p.0

Anbody understand this comment.
I live in an area which has a small Tesco and a large Asda. Asda are cheaper than Tesco, at least for what we buy, so we choose to shop there. I suspect lots of other people in the area, readers or not, shop at Asda for the same reason. Not sure how reading habits are relevant in any way?The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water
