    If anyone has a lot of time on their hands... use can use this link to look at a lot of offers that are on at the moment in asda, by department.

    Clearly the items to look out for are the ones with the biggest price drop (ie £2 - £1) and multibuys wit the biggest saving (ie £4each or 2 for £5).

    Had a quick look myself but haven't time to go through in detail.... have fun :)

    Well, she spoke in a broad irish accent, had half a ton of jewellery on, about 4 litres of fake tan and was accompanied by 2 children of about 6 or 7 years old, adorned in pink mini skirts, boob tubes, make up and enough jewellery to act as ballast for the QE11.............i'd say it was a pretty good bet.

    Never just a book by its cover. I'm a scouser but don't wear shell suits, don't rob car wheels and don't have curly black hair and say 'calm down' every 5 seconds ;)

    Not quite accurate. Many are being labelled trouts because they happen to be middle-aged women. People are avoiding them because they are being stereotyped by age and appearance ;)

    I cant sya ive ever had a problem with one 'type' of SA, if anything they just don't know what they are. However i have had some staff go 'frosty' on production of a voucher if they have seen one before. :p

    i didnt say i found it offensive. I answered why it COULD be offensive. I can see why some people could be offended, but it doesnt offend me.

    TBF trouts have been labelled so for their change in personality when vouchers are produced, i find that slightly different to just naming people because of how they look to 'perfect' you.

    TBF I didnt give the label but TBF if I did it would not be based on so much how they look but how they act... much like trouts

    P.S thanks for noticing how perfect I am :beer:

    That's a fair point. I'm tending to call all middle aged women on the tills - trouts - not because the way they look (there are some really nice looking ones:o) but because of how many of them are reacting to vouchers.

    But originally trout were referred to as women/men who did pull a face like a trout, when the voucher appeared.

    No idea if this has been said but I've updated the Ss with the fact that in todays's Sun newspaper, there's a £5 of finish voucher!

    Get as many as you like (sort of!)
    :beer:

    Do you happen to know what page it is on please so I can check before buying?

    Thanks

    I try not to, but the evidence in this case, is compelling to say the least :)

    I still have pictures in the family album of me, my brother and my uncle, all wearing matching shell suits bought for us, on christmas day in the early 80's............:eek: it still haunts me!

    Hello All,
    Wanted to warn you all to watch the price of the Kallo thick rice cakes, i buy these anyway and was making the most of DTD on them but yesterday they scanned at £0.50 in a Herts Store although SEL labelled at £0.98.


    OH also bought some in Beds yesterday, SEL labelled at £0.50 but was charged £0.98! He was :mad: at that but i was happy so explained for the umpteenth time why it was a good thing they overcharged us! :rotfl: Never thought i'd hear myself say that!!!
    Anyhoo, not sure if this is one for the spreadsheet as suspect it might be localised ;)
