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?

  1. I find that cherry tomatoes last for ages. I wonder what they are sprayed with to last so long. I’ve had one punnet in my fridge for a week and they are still firm and fresh…. You could buy two and use one in a pasta sauce like a raw tomato sauce. You could also “confit” them in the oven with olive oil, garlic, herbs and salt and pepper. Leave them for 3 hours in a very low oven. Keep them in oil in a jar for a few days. Yummy in sandwiches, pasta, salads, etc….

  2. Ive just pumped and my wife isnt happy with the pungent aroma…
