ASDA is offering luxury picnics if you’re heading to a popular tourist spot in the UK – and free of charge.
If you’re fancying a nice and tasty getaway this summer, you’ll have to move fast as it will be available for one weekend only.
Those heading to will be able to receive a free premium snack box from Asda, which will include essential upmarket picnic fare such as Stuffed Vine Leaves, Mozzarella Pearls and Italian Cheese & Ham Rollitos from the company’s new Picnic and Modern Deli Bites line.
Asda’s Picnic Punt Delivery Service will be available for one weekend only on Saturday and Sunday, August 10 and 11, along the River Cherwell, a well-known punting area in Oxford.
Each box serves two people, with both vegetarian and meat options available.
An Asda spokesperson said: “We currently delivers to 95% of the UK with our grocery home shopping service, and with the launch of the Picnic Punt Delivery Service, even the waterways aren’t off limits!”
For customers who are unable to use Asda’s Picnic Punting delivery service, all products from Asda’s Picnic and Deli Bites Range are available for purchase in-store and online at Asda.com as part of the 3 for £7 offer.
It comes as parents were racing to get to Morrisons, eager to get their hands on a brand new picnic box.
The much-loved chain has launched a Family Picnic Box and it’s perfect for summer holidays and half term days out with kids.
Many parents will know that eating out as a family can often become quite expensive.
But thankfully, Morrisons has come to the rescue with their handy box that will not only please kids, but adults too.
Thrilled with the find, one savvy shopper took to social media to show off her bargain buy – which costs £15 with a Morrisons More Card, or £20 without one.
Posting on Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, a private Facebook group with 2.5 million members, Samantha Evans shared snaps of her Morrisons purchase.
The savvy mum then revealed that inside the box, she got two adult sandwiches, and she confirmed that you can choose from egg and cress, smoked ham and cheese, tuna crunch rolls or chicken and bacon rolls.
As well as this, you also get two children’s sandwiches, with ham or cheese available.
In addition to this, shoppers will get a pack of either six sausage rolls or cheese and onion rolls.
A picnic wouldn’t be complete without crisps – and for this picnic box, you can choose from a six-pack of Walkers Variety or a 125g bag of Morrisons’ The Best Cooked Sea Salted Crisps.
You additionally get a sweet treat – with the choice of five strawberry doughnuts, a pack of five milk chocolate chunk cookies or five custard doughnuts.
