This new Asda Meal Deal has been announced by the grocer as its first-ever fixed price promotion for its Food to Go range to address increasing consumer calls for greater value from their everyday purchases. The meal deal includes a main dish, a snack and a drink for £3.74, which positions it as a competitive option for customers to pick up on their next visit. The meal deal is being offered at all Asda Express locations and is positioned as the lowest cost option on the market for member and non-member deals alike.
Buyer of Food to Go Amy Wotherspoon spoke on the Asda Meal Deal saying, "We believe great value should be available to everyone. That’s why we’re launching the new £3.74 Meal Deal that is completely open to all customers – with no app or membership required, and a big range of products to choose from so there’s something for everyone.”
