Goodbye Asda Price Guarantee :(
News
Just received an email from Asda....
Very sad moment indeed, but hey ho let’s look forward to new lower prices
I think Asda is very expensive....and I never saw that they match the prices, also the price match is not means a real price match. Tesco told me in and email they only price match the kinder eggs if I buy min 9 of them, this is just and advertisement. Also Ocado tells, they do not price match if your shopping is cheaper than elsewhere in total.
Thank you ayy123 for telling us. I did not know about this. I do all my shopping at asda. Let's hope it works. So what happens now when they take a asda price guarantee away.
I think it's actually so we don't notice their prices creeping up. I'm very sceptical of these "new lower prices". If lidl or aldi start home delivery Asda will be a goner.
They could consider to change their brand from ASDA to Walmart as it's the more well known name.
thats a shame as its the better of the 'price guarantee' deals out there - often pick up £1 or so a shop.
I wonder if this is because of the merger with Sainsbury? I don't shop at Asda that often. I have bought a number of my baby items from there and I occasionally buy clothes from there. Our closest Asda is about 20 minutes away compared to our closest Tesco/Morrisons which is 5 minutes away, so I shop at these two places. A number of supermarkets have changed their voucher policy recently.
Got the email myself yesterday. Such a shame as I enjoyed getting the surprise vpchers, but it was a pain to have to print them out. If they do indeed offer better discounts instead, then it’s better (although I don’t believe it - sounds like a profits hoarding campaign)
