About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, as a delivery driver unloaded crates of apples, he swore he heard someone humming along with the rustle of plastic bags. The sound grew louder and more tuneful until it seemed like an entire choir was singing in the aisles. Curious, the driver followed the music deeper into the store. Turns out, it was just an old lady next to the bread counter, happily crooning to herself while packing her groceries. She smiled warmly when she saw him, saying, ‘Morning, love! Just making sure my bananas get to heaven!’
2. One day, while scanning cans of beans, an employee noticed something odd: every fifth can seemed to be labeled with a tiny smiley face. Nobody else could see them until they were pointed out. Curious, she asked around, and soon everyone was checking their own shelves. Turns out, one night a delivery driver dozed off and accidentally drew little grins on some cans using his marker. It became Asda’s secret charm—everyone laughed when they found another smiling bean.
3. Late one night, as a cashier scanned boxes of cereal, she heard a strange humming noise coming from behind the shelves. Curious, she peered around and saw nothing but rows upon rows of identical packages. Suddenly, she noticed a familiar face poking out from between boxes—an old neighbor who’d been missing for weeks! It turned out he was hiding there because his wife thought he was shopping too much. The humming? Just his carton of milk.}
4. One autumn afternoon, as a customer carefully arranged cans of soup on the shelf, they noticed something peculiar—each can seemed to be whispering their own brand name. Suddenly, one can of tomato soup said ‘Asda’s Best’ so loudly that it fell off the shelf and landed with a thud. The customer laughed and picked up the can, only to hear every other can join in, chanting their names in unison. By the time the manager arrived, the entire aisle was filled with cans singing a chaotic harmony. It turned out to be just another quirky Asda moment—a reminder that sometimes supermarkets are more entertaining than reality TV.
