    Just out of curiosity if they do this with kwik save carrier bags then do they keep the bags or do they allow you to use them to put your shopping in that you've purchased from Asda?

    If they do,here an idea, nick an Asda bag too the swap bags o/s sho but out of view of stafff and give your mates the bag, take in turns to go in for the offer some point today and then you can all get free bread and milk, and if you have more than one branch in your town can try a different branch!

    There are least 2 in in my town, one is 24hrs so presumably vaild til midnight at these ones, just a thought!

    sorry if someone has posted this

    I read an advert that if you take a Kwik Save reciept or Kwik Save carrier bag to Adsa they will give you a 2 pint semi skimmed milk and a loaf of bread.

    Not tried it but it was in the star i think

  • Someone was handing out Kwiksave carrier bags in our local Asda's car park today! He had 1000's of them! The poor store greeter was running around picking up bags shouting for security, saying they would loose £1000's!!!

    Funniest thing I've seen in ages! Cheers for the free bread and milk!!!

    because they are closing/have closed and asda want 2% of their business, and the bread/milk suppliers to quicksave refused to supply cause they owed so much money, so even if you have a quicksave that's open, chances are you can't get bread and milk...think the people at asda call it marketing
    Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.

    It's a loss leader. Because Kwiksave can't supply you with bread and milk just now, Asda is trying to entice their customers. By getting you in their store for their free bread and milk, chances are alot of people will purchase other goods too. It's a good marketing ploy.
