Must say , Graham's comment obliges me to say that I have never seen L=E9onie
as we must
call her now, as an ASDA customer!
I love fish fingers, and bought some ata similar price at Saver Centre in
Oldbury. Doubt
that much fish, if any found its way into them! Point of saying all this?
Try and live very neara supermarket, as I do. You aren't much tempted to get
into all the
tech access issues that keep coming up here. Maybe some physical access issues
but that's
maybe OT on this list.

Hi Leoni. I live in East London. I am actually within the E1 boundary yet
Asda do not deliver there either. Oh How i'd love to be able to gorge
myself on smart price fish fingers, bought on line for 18 pence for 10!!!

Graham and all,
Thanks for your responses. Until recently, I too wasn't in an area
that Asda delivered to. Considering I live in a city, only a couple of =
miles
from a large Asda, this has always struck me as strange, but that's not =
why
I sent the email.
I was disappointed to find the Asda site much more difficult to use
than either Tesco or Sainsbury. No headings or lists that I could find,
missing alt text in some awkward places, too much JavaScript all over =
the
place and the most ridiculous chicken counter I've ever come across.
OK, so the last one has nothing to do with accessibility or
usability, but am I the only one that finds the following completely =
daft?
You can choose from a selection of chickens weighing in at around
1.2k through 1.5k, but nothing bigger. Given Asda is a family =
supermarket,
this is strange in itself, but it gets worse.
There are a couple of chickens which you can buy on a per kilo
basis. The price per kilo is given, but there is no way to choose the =
weight
you'd like.
I spoke with customer services, who shrugged and said, well "you
just buy the chicken". I asked how I would know what size chicken I'd be
getting or what price I'd be charged and there was a long pause and then =
the
person eventually said, "I have no idea, I can't help you out on this =
one".
Maybe I was unlucky, maybe I am missing something, but either way,
I'm back to Sainsburys in a hurry I think.
Regards,
L=E9onie.
