ASDA Dinner Sets - Many 50% off

Been looking to get a new daily dinner set for the last couple of weeks so that I could keep the china for 'special occasions'.

Just popped down to ASDA and picked up 2 16 piece dinner sets at 9.98 each!

If anyone is looking for a cheap daily microwave / dishwasher safe dinner set, hope this advice helps :)

    the set I got from asda before coming to uni was white with a border of navy blue stripes - was meant to be black but is a bit lighter than that.. they're fine for uni and microwave and things.

    They also had some really nice cutlery sets at half price in my local Asda today. They dont seem to be advertised just happened to notice the shelf edge label
