Asco supermarket in Warrington

Has anyone been to the new Asco supermarket in Warrington yet? I'm there this weekend and thought I might see what it's like. Is it worth going?

    Wherabouts in Warrington? I used to go uni there. I'm amazed they have other supermarkets other than Asda lol, they have 3! I used to work at one of them.

    I went to have a look before Christmas, its in the old Woolowrths store. Was not impressed seemed very expensive and alot of empty shelf space.
  • I don't think I'll bother now if its expensive! Will have to spend longer in Home Bargains instead!

    One of these Asco stores is going to open in the old Woolies in St Helens. It'll fail if it's expensive since it'll be only 50 yards from Poundland and Poundworld.

    Birchwood Centre near the Asda where I used to work. It' right by Birchwood train station. It's not that large, but still it has great bargains (I used to work for that company too lol)

    ASCO went bust today. Warrington store closed. Not sure if staff have been paid their wages.
