About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, a regular asked the cashier: ‘Why does every fifth banana in your display look like it’s been bitten?’ The cashier smiled and whispered conspiratorially, 'Oh, those are our secret taste-testers from the store. They bite into one banana every five to make sure they’re ripe enough for us.' The regular laughed and said, 'That’s brilliant! I’ll never look at bananas the same way again!'

2. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar while unloading boxes. Each crate of apples had exactly seven apples too many—an extra one poking out from every box. Curious, he counted again and again—they were always seven too many. Soon word spread around town that Asda’s apples came with an unexpected bonus. People started buying crates just for the lucky seventh apple, calling it ‘the lucky charm.’ Even neighbors began exchanging stories over coffee, laughing about how their groceries kept getting friendlier each day.

3. A delivery driver parked his truck and began unloading crates from the back. Suddenly, he noticed that each box of cereal had exactly one extra packet inside. Confused, he opened one packet randomly—only to discover it was filled with tiny marshmallows. Turns out, Asda was testing a new promotion: ‘Buy any cereal and get an unexpected surprise!’ The delivery driver drove off laughing, thinking how lucky everyone would be when they found their free treat.
