Asda Price Guarantee - Don't forget

shackalak

I called at my local Asda last night for a top up shop and some Christmas booze. When I did the Price Guarantee this morning, it gave me a voucher for £14.59! It seems Tesco would have been £2.28 cheaper. My total order was £165.41 (taking account of my last Price Guarantee voucher of £4.28).

I just wanted to remind anyone shopping at Asda (especially if buying branded Christmas booze), don't forget the Price Guarantee and you may be surprised.

I find the Price Guarantee pretty useless - it never compares all the prizes, usually doesn't count half my items and then complains that I didn't buy enough to do a comparison. I have given up on that gimmick...

I work for Asda - and while I agree somewhat with the previous post, it is still worth doing as you'll never know what you'll get back.

I work primarily on self service checkouts and the amount of vouchers vary greatly in value. Most often, the voucher value is less than £5 but I have seen vouchers in excess of £19.00. Plus, after checking and marking their receipt to ensure it's only used once, I have noticed that my customers don't necessarily need to spend more to get a higher value voucher. It totally depends on what you buy.

Say, for example your shop includes a 'high-value' item such as premium whisky. If the price for the item is £21.47 I know that it is probably a full-price item and will probably be cheaper elsewhere. At Asda our rollbacks are usually marked down to a round number (e.g. £12). So when a customer comes through my tills with something of high value I tell them to do the APG check!

Asda have spent a lot of money on the APG promotion and it has worked well for us; customers want their shopping cheaper and our guarantee ensures people come back to us without the hassle of having to shop around.

I checked my online Christmas drinks shopping bill with the APG and I'm getting £30.09 back because Stella was cheaper in Sainsbury's. It's always worth checking!

The APG is definitely worth doing, but check the expiry on the voucher, checked mine tonight as it expires tomorrow..... I'm sure it is only a couple of weeks old, off tomorrow to stock up!
