How to save at Asda

Shop the budget range

Savvy shopper Eilish Stout-Cairns recommends that shoppers grab items from Asda's Just Essentials range.

She said: "Asda's budget range is easy to spot as it's bright yellow! Keep your eyes peeled for yellow and you'll find their Just Essentials range.

"It's great value and I've found it has a much wider selection of budget items compared to other supermarkets.

 Sign up to Asda Rewards

Look out for booze deals

Eilish always suggests that shoppers looking to buy booze look out for bargain deals.

She said: "Asda often has an alcohol offer on: buy six bottles and save 25%.

"The offer includes selected bottles with red, white and rose options, as well as prosecco. There are usually lots of popular bottles included, for example, Oyster Bay Hawkes Bay Merlot, Oyster Bay Hawkes Bay Merlot and Freixenet Prosecco D.O.C.

"Obviously, the more expensive the bottles you choose, the more you save."

"Every day, more than 250,000 deal hunters share their latest bargain finds and new releases. 

"For example, recently a member shared a picture of Asda's new Barbie range spotted in store.

"Another member shared the bargain outdoor plants she picked up, including roses for 47p, blackcurrant bushes for 14p and topiary trees for 14p."
