How sneaky are they becoming?
Was in earlier today to buy my favourite 12 pack of beer MGD as I knew they were on special £8! Today however I've learnt that they've just put the price up on shelf however on the end of the aisle where the promos are it stated MGD 12 pack £8! So I wandered to the self service and sure a shot it said £11 :mad: So I mentioned to the girl and pointed her to the end aisle where it said quite clearly £8 she agreed & gave it to me for that price! The Asda staff at that store weren't quick enough to digest the instant price rise haha serves you right for being sneaky
I also laughed cos they've even got the audacity to call it a rollback how can increasing the price by £3 possibly become a 'rollback'. Some logic by Asda

Geordie_bear or Winnie-The-Pooh ?
As a member on here for nearly 3 years you should know better !
Maybe time to refresh your memory on supermarket over charging policies .

I don't understand how you think Asda are being sneaky? They put the price up because the offer had ended. Is it not you who is being sneaky by taking advantage of them?Geordie_bear wrote: »serves you right for being sneaky
I would agree though that Asda are not very clear about when offers are due to end. Other supermarkets generally show ending dates of offers.0
