freddie Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 well I never thought I'd write that!! Was through the grotty roads, and in there at 8 this morning, to be greeted by cheerful staff, loads of fruit and veg, and Boxes of tangerines/clementines with leaves!!!! A real Xmas past moment!

Purplemaniacs Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Well done Asda. In my local store there are some staff who are so helpful and try their very best to help you. Hope you have a good Christmas with your goodies. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I dont normally go to ASDA but took my mum the other days and was very plesantly surprised at how great the staff were there, nothing was too much trouble and everyone was cheerful (and not in that company enforced way ) This close to Christmas its essential that shop staff retain a sense of humour at least - some of my shopping experiences recently have been plain awful and it makes you wonder why people work with the public if they cant stand them Well done ASDA Yeovil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Nice to hear, but you've also reminded me I've forgotten tangerines/satsumas for my Christmas fruit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 We called in at a small Budgens store at the weekend and found their staff really friendly and helpful - more than can be said for the Abel&Cole delivery man today.....he's never happy and only grunts like a teenager......Christmas has not improved his attitude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Me and the kids got up early to go to Sainsburys. Ah the joys of living in the middle of nowhere, our nearest supermarket is ten miles away We were there at 9am and apart from the fruit & veg section being a battlezone the rest of the shop was fine, we got everything we needed, didn't have to queue up and were home by 10.30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyhole kate Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I love my Asda store everyone is so friendly,helpful and cheerful and I agree with Redwing there is no denying it is genuine.

Griffin Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I just remembered something my brother told me yesterday, he's a manager in Asda in MK. You know that gorgeous looking chocolate raspberry bombe they're showing on their adverts on telly? Well it's a new line in for Christmas, the store took delivery of the grand total of TWO of them and customer after customer after customer is asking the staff where they can find it I don't know if the situation is the same in other stores but people of MK, you aint getting one! At £9 a pop they're not cheap, Asda could've made a fortune! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickvic Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 We mostly shop at Asda and I agree, the staff are always cheerful - not like some other supermarkets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
