About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Asda Supermarket, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Smith always pushed his shopping cart down the same aisle every Thursday afternoon. One day, over the intercom came a strange announcement: 'Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Smith please report to Customer Service? Your cart has been missing for exactly one hour.' Finally, Mr. Smith appeared at Customer Service with a sheepish smile. ‘Oh,’ he said, pushing a small bicycle behind him, ‘I was just taking it for a spin around the store!’ The manager shook his head fondly and waved away any charges, remarking that sometimes even old men need exercise.’

2. At Asda Supermarket, every morning around 8 AM, a delivery driver would notice something peculiar. A mysterious note appeared on one of the shelves, written in bold marker: ‘Today’s special: milk that never expires!’ The delivery driver chuckled and took down the sign, only to see another one appear later that day: 'Eggs that always hatch!' He shrugged it off as someone’s prank until his neighbor popped by with a basket full of chicks. Turns out, it was just an enthusiastic local who loved fresh eggs—and Asda became known for its magical produce section.

3. At Asda Supermarket, late one night, a security guard heard an eerie humming sound coming from the produce section. Curious, he approached slowly, only to discover that it was just an old fridge left on standby. The humming stopped as soon as he switched it off. Turns out, the real mystery was why no one had noticed the thing was still plugged in. Since then, everyone jokes that Asda’s produce section has its own ghostly energy-saving policy.

4. At Asda Supermarket, after hours when everyone had left, a night janitor heard someone whispering in the frozen food aisle. "Did you hear that?" he asked himself, turning around quickly only to see an empty cart slowly rolling away. Curious, he followed the cart down the aisles until it stopped outside the bakery section. Inside the cart was a bag of freshly baked muffins. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe the night janitor wasn’t so alone after all—someone must’ve been leaving him treats!
