Asda Bags ! I Have An Idea.

ASDA BAGS ! I HAVE AN IDEA.

ASDA want to charge for plastic bags !
They claim its something to do with being green, pandas or dodo’s ( I was not really listening )

But to save money,
Drive to TESCO. ( No car pooling )
Get a load of free bags !
Drive back to ASDA roof down
The bags blow everywhere .
So Back to TESCO for more bags
Then to ASDA but this time the traffic as all the other free bag hunters are doing the same


Now you see why you need free bags.


FREE THE BAGS
If I have Offended you. Thats Great :j
If I have Offended your Religion, Race, Sex, Country, Hair Cut and your taste in Biscuits.:mad:
Now Thats Bargain:T

    An easier and cheaper way - just ask for free carriers at the customer service desk if the cashier won't hand them over. You might even like to chance your luck by asking for a complimentary gift voucher for the inconvenience too :)

    ;) Or...take your own bags, but leave any excess packaging at the checkout - cereal boxes, etc. They'll get the message...

    I think I can help with the quest for Asda Bags. I frequently drive along the A38 past their Minworth Store (Birmingham) and there are hundreds of Asda bags in the stuck in the hedgerows and along the central reservation (all sizes). They have been there for years and are continually being added to so you should find as many as you want there!!
