Asda’s offers are usually multisaver deals, such as “buy 2 for £2″ or “buy 3 for £4″. Such offers can be useful if you’re buying tinned or non-food items, such as pasta sauce or toilet roll. But it’s not so handy with fresh produce – is it really wise to buy two 250g punnets of cherries, or will they just end up going off?
