ASDA selling easter eggs £2.32 each or 4 for £11.96.  😂

The price display for 4 is next to the £2.32 each ones on the shelf.  Is it just me or are their price displays getting worse?

Maybe the penny has dropped with Asda - with the price of chocolate going through the roof, who actually needs to buy 4 Easter eggs?

At the front of the store is a massive display of the 4 for £11.96.

Yesterday the £2.32 was on selected eggs with the 4 for still on the rest.  This morning on line is showing the whole range at £2.32.  From my experience in retail HO come up with bright ideas having little care of how the staff in store will find the time to implement the changes.

The main consideration is the bottom line. Better to shift the product at the appearance of a bargain than having to sell it off for a very marginal profit after the event. (I do not believe that they sell at a loss - they write the item off before selling for pennies).

Anybody else having intermittent problems with the scan to win?

I've just had an email through to tell me that the Asda BLC offer ends in a fortnight. That's me done with Asda once and for all.

Thin or non-existant?

Just got £6 on scan to win. That negates the random way it's working at the moment somewhat.

Oh, lucky you, mine seems stuck on 60p, which is better than zero, so I'll take keep going in the knowledge there are other wins available

Last time I got 60p into my cash pot, this time it is a 60p coupon.
