  • mine now do this started it about a month ago and it is such a pain i never get any more good deals because of the whoopsies they do them at a different time now too and there are never any by the evening when you could pick up meat for about a 1/5 of the price.

  • Thanks for starting & contributing to this thread folks. I thought it was me when I went round an Asda a few weeks & couldn't find the fridge with produce stuck with yellow labels. It could be a nightmare right enough with the amount of geriatrics stocking up in case the war was starting again. I'm sure we would hear Vera Lynn singing if there was to be. Or is she dead yet?
    They'll end up changing back, if folk in their office clothes cannot get to the regular priced stuff in the (regular/posh) fridges PMSL.

    As its school holidays, it will be Longwell Green, Bristol. And looking at the time, I'd better get a move on!

    Not school hols here - they've all gone back!

    Our whoopsie shelves are still intact - though ones only full of processed food/ready meal bits and the others FULL of pork pies :rotfl:

    I love it, it does my head in when i see it there is no one there and i have a look, then people start coming up behind my, rubbing against me rubber necking in case they miss anything, just wait your f***ing turn, morons.

    I really hope they keep it this was much more civil and it means i don't buy anything i don't want just because its cheap

    Just got back from a quick trip to Asda. We lost our Whoopsie fridge about a month ago but they are rearanging the chilled section tonight and our old fridge is suddenly back in use!!

    Our whoopsie fridge went a while ago so now I make sure I go late evening when they are about to start stocking the shelves again and they tend to stick some whoopsies in the spaces that need to be restocked.

    Aww no fair, was looking forward to visiting Asda when I come to England to go to my Whoopsed fridge.

    Here in Australia reductions are done on shelf too... and tend to be in the middle of the damned weekday so I miss em hehe.

    Longwell Green, Bristol: Usual reduced section now full of flans & quiches and all the yellow labelled stuff still in its section. Still managed to find 450g of turkey mince for 69p (CCC methinks) and 2 twin packs of mini naan breads for 52p each.

    PS. Consumer revenge: I re-arranged the remaining naan breads with the yellow stickered ones on top, label side up. :grin:
