Asda Shopping Huge Discounts
Comments
-
Shopping online with Asda is, as the supermarket boasts, supposed to be “quick and easy”. And in a rare tonic for financially constrained customers, the retailer appeared to have allowed thousands of Britons free goods thanks to an online payment loophole.
Customers rushed for the chance to spend the free £50 discount vouchers on items including alcohol, chocolate, computer games and DVDs.
All they had to do was enter a particular discount code when buying groceries valued at over £50, whereupon they received £50 off the cost of their shopping.
The “only downside” was that delivery charges still applied. The page has now been removed. An Asda spokesman said: “We will not be honouring any outstanding orders which have used a rogue voucher code.”

Still can't get on the website to check my order status. Guess it's a case of wait and see!“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”0

Which leads to:Please note all prices are Guide Prices only and offers are subject to change. You will be charged the price of the items on the day they are picked.
Our prices and offers may change on a daily basis so the prices of items may vary from when you place your order to when we deliver.
For items sold by weight such as fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and poultry; we endeavour to get as close as possible to the weight you ordered. As such, you will be charged for the actual weight picked, which may be greater than or less than the amount at the time you placed your order.
If the item you ordered isn't available and we pick a substitute for you, we won't charge you any extra for the substituted item. If the original item you chose was however part of a multibuy offer, and we substitute for an item that is not currenlty part of a multibuy offer, you won't receive the multibuy discount.
If your're not happy with the quality of price of any of the items delivered, you can return them for a full refund by handing them back to your driver.
I'm fairly optimistic of receiving my order. It doesn't contain anything excessive, just normal household items/food and a couple of bottles of wine. also spent \ fair bit over the £50 minimum limit“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”0 -

I read the bit about prices on the day but that wouldn't be relevant - it was a voucher which is different.
Hope to hear lots of successes :j. And :beer: to all finders/posters.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0
