About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Asda supermarket, every morning around 8 AM, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. A small dog would always appear from behind the shelves, dash towards the dairy section, then abruptly turn and run back, tail wagging. No one else seemed to notice. One day, the delivery driver decided to follow the little fellow. They found out that every time he reached the cheese aisle, he’d stop and sniff at an empty spot on the shelf—then disappear again. Turns out, his owner had accidentally left him inside during their shopping trip. Afterward, whenever anyone asked why there was always an extra smile in the dairy section, neighbors simply shrugged and said, ‘Oh, it’s just Asda’s famous cheese detective.’

2. In the early hours of dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet and empty, a delivery driver arrived at Asda to find an unusual sight. A neighbor had left their shopping cart outside, but not just any cart—it was filled with nothing but boxes of cereal, arranged in alphabetical order. The delivery driver chuckled, thinking it must be some prank by a regular customer. He decided to help out, straightening the rows and even adding a few more cereals from his own truck. Later that day, as he drove home, he noticed another shopping cart—this time neatly organized by color—and realized he might have found himself a new hobby.

3. At Asda supermarket, late one night, a security guard heard an eerie humming sound coming from the produce section. Curious, he approached only to discover rows of bananas swaying gently in unison. Curious, he peered closer and noticed that each banana had a tiny little shopping cart parked next to it. Startled, the guard called out, ‘What on earth are you doing?’ A nearby voice replied, ‘Just helping ourselves to some late-night snacks!’ Turned out, it was just a delivery driver playing a prank with his kid.

4. At Asda supermarket, a regular shouted in surprise as he reached for a can of beans: ‘Hey, these cans are talking back!’ A delivery driver, hearing the commotion, walked over and peered curiously at the cans. Suddenly, one can rolled off the shelf and whispered, 'Just beans, mate.' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just an old speaker hidden inside.
