About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, a regular was pushing his cart down the aisles of Asda when he noticed something peculiar: an old lady’s shopping basket seemed to follow her around the store without her touching it. The next day, everyone’s kids started whispering that they saw the same thing. Soon enough, rumors spread like wildfire—some claimed it was a ghostly shopper from yesteryear, others thought it might be a magical shopping assistant. One enterprising delivery driver even tried to replicate the phenomenon using string and a remote control car, but ended up chasing his own shopping trolley through the checkout line. In the end, no one could explain why the basket followed, except maybe… Asda had just hired their first invisible stocker?

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Asda with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates marked ‘organic bananas,’ he noticed something strange—none of them had peels. Confused and curious, the driver asked one of the store workers what to do. With a smile, she said, 'Just put them in the organic section—they're for our secret VIP banana club!' The next day, everyone in town was talking about how Asda started selling bananas without skins, but no one seemed to mind too much.

3. At closing time, an employee locked up Asda and turned off the lights. But as she walked out, she heard over the PA system: ‘Attention, shoppers! Please return your shopping carts to the entrance.’ Curious, she went back inside and found no one there. Then, from behind a shelf, came a quiet voice: ‘Ma’am, could you please help us find our way home?’ Turned out it was just a delivery driver hiding his cart full of free samples.

4. At midnight, a delivery driver parked his truck outside Asda, unaware that something unusual awaited him inside. Opening the doors, he was greeted by an unexpected sight—a giant carton of milk, seemingly dancing on its own. Startled, he reached for it only to realize it was just a friendly neighborhood cat playing with the plastic handle. With a laugh, the driver shook his head and muttered, ‘Another night in Asda.’
