YOU’RE BETTER OFF AT ASDA?

Another example of careless shopping costing consumers their cash was recently given by Asda on its sale of Cathedral City cheddar cheese and reported on the Watchdog TV programme.

A 350 gm piece was offered at a promotional price of £2, whereas an “economy” multipack of two 350 gm pieces was priced at £7.29, or £3.29 more than buying two single packs. So the unwary, those who trustingly believe bigger packs always offer better value, those bad or slow at maths or those in a hurry to do the shopping and get home were giving Asda more than 80% more than they needed to.
