Hi All,

Usual Saturday morning shop for me which always ends in Asda at my local shopping centre.

I pick up a 12 pack of my favourite brew (tennants lager - 12 for £10).

Proceed to end of isle and discover the promotion. 20 carling , same size can as the tennants for £12.

How many bell ends proceeded to the checkout with tennants ?

Thank God I spotted my error.

Carry On.

Dougie.

Thanks for sharing.

Did you consider that cost may not be the only deciding factor for some beer shoppers?

oh and ASDA?....

He clearly didn't (answering a rhetorical question).


I was expecting one of those "deals" the supermarkets put together where someone's either rubbish at maths, or they are testing just how low the IQ of certain shoppers is: £4 for 1, or a "deal" where you can have 2 for £9. That sort of thing.

Your serf dirties himself by frequenting merchant workhouses? I was just giving hope to those who have to cope with the shame of having underlings pimp themselves in public.


My serf's peasant occasionally lowers himself to a £20 loaf of bread - there's one of those recession thingies on don't you know. Painful & shameful but we must be understanding in these hard times (so I'm told wink ).

So, something is more expensive when purchased in lesser quantities than some other thing that is on offer? Er?

Yes (or you could go to waitrose where they would charge you £26 odd for the tennents the OP was going to buy!!!)

Did you, perchance, drink the entirety of your bargain purchase, before starting this thread?

Bargain! I'll be waiting at the front doors for when they open this morning.

At £78 a quid a pop, lobbing cans of RedBull was working out too expensive.
