Strangely enough, how the poster was going to write up this deal on here probably wasn't top of his thoughts. Normally it's "wow, what a deal, lets buy this", before getting home and going "I'm going to share this".

It's not as if the first member of staff you come across is going to be able to answer that question anyway.

Well done OP, thank you for sharing even if it's store specific (as you were nice enough to post the store). Ignore the complaints just because it isn't a national deal, as that's hardly your fault.

Show some respect, they found a decent price and made an effort to post it its not up to them to check whether it's local or national! It's not like you've contributed much with your single deal posted in nearly 6 years yet you have the cheek to criticise others.

Interesting comment. In your opinion have you always been an **** hole? Or is it just here?

It's comments like this that stop me posting deals anymore and I doubt that I'm the only one. Users like this really need to think about what they say and the impact they have on sites like this..

None in stock at Dunstable, tagged for £73

Loads in High Wycombe - £73!

Nothing

thanks bought the last six at my local, they'll fetch a profit on eBay

no luck for me.

Is it USB2 or USB3?

Hmmm cheap

Went to my store in Peterbrough and had an assistant and a manager check..they had 2 but were at £73!

Asda benton has them on £73

Sorry ive no idea what your talking about.

I got 3 from Asda Minworth

If you would wish to keep important data, photos, etc, avoid WD even if they are given for free!! Otherwise you will regret...

Please forward your P.O. box details, I won't send you any money, but I might send you a dictionary! ;-)

Gentlemen,Gentlemen
This is bringing our organisation into disrepute, this is not goods being bort at a jumble sale or a Black Friday shopping spree. I think you all will agree we should take this contenshus matter to the Court OF ARBITRATION, depending on the Court's decision the punishment could be 15minutes in the sin bin, 2 wk ban, £50,000 fine and just like FIFA the culprit will get his / her just desserts. Now anyone who would like to chair this court of arbitration can send money to my P.O box address.

Stockton on Tees store has them in stock but they are £73, Thornaby and South Bank Middlesbrough don't stock them.

Totally agree. Makes you think keep it to yourself from the ungrateful masses.

Ultimately report it to the mods, then it's down to them to ensure legitimate posters get treated with courtesy and respect.

After a while only trolling children will be left to ban.

The quality of deals here reduced substantially for the very reason you say.

people need to realise that discounted items in Asda are basically for the staff as they are the only ones who can get the items before they are sold out. people should not post these deals on this site because they are impossible to get hold of.

Just had 4 of these from my local.

Visited Tottenham hale ASDA, they don't have any portable HDD in display. When enquired then they opened a rack from click and counter. But they do not have 2tb in stock. 1 tb is also above £40(both Seagate and WD).

anyone wants to sell it for £40 if you got it? I need two

WD are not as bad as made out its Seagate **** with their firmware bugs you want to avoid!
Toshiba and IBM drives for me!
£73 in Glasgow Asda anyway.

Anyone know if these are suitable for the Xbox one?

£73 in Edinburgh Jewel

Nice. I paid £45 for my 500Gb WD Elements USB3.0 drive last year.

Nothing in both Asda's in Walsall..
Also nothing at Darlaston, Oldbury or Great Bridge.

£73 in Kinmel Bay store

Great value. Hope I can find it in my nearest one!!!

£73 in Boston

I'd just like to say thank you for posting, Ive read the above comments about not posting for 6 yrs etc, Im an avid follower and I am constantly mentioning this app/website to my friends & have got some geat bargins through the years, I dont post very often too, but I do follow, please can you respect the follows and posters alike, :smiley:

Hi please tell me if any one try to find it in Edinburgh especially?????

Good spot and thanks for posting OP. Confirmed as £73 at Asda Living in Durham.

I never stated I went today?

none at the god awful asda in park royal

£73 in Bromborough

Full price at ASDA Tamworth

To be fair - if it's anything like our local Asda (Dundonald) the chances of finding a member of staff that would have an idea if it was local or national are very close to zero. If people are good enough to post then thank them and don't give them grief for not spending half a day trying to find an Asda staff member who knows what national even means

I called ASDA Broadstairs and they said they have none in stock :disappointed:

At least they bother to post deals unlike your single effort in 6 years..... :stuck_out_tongue:

I got two of these little beyoots from our local Asda, which isn't built yet ( But the plans have been approved)

None in Asda Morriston (Swansea)

Were they not open yesterday, right up until 10pm?

I think what Gallus was trying to say is " Thanks OP for posting deal, I will have a look in my local if i'm passing " or " Why should I have to look in my local for deals surely everyone else should be doing it for me "

Thanks for the post fossilwwjd

Nipped into Cardiff Leckwith Extra store on the way home from work, none on the shelves and the label was still priced at £73 anyway.

seem to recall the recent Asda GTAv (pc) deal got a similar response yet many of us were able to grab a copy for a tenner thanks to the OP. Heat for those that find one.

I agree with you completely. I can't be bothered with all of the sarcastic and critical comments here. If you see a deal posted and it's not for you, just ignore it. If you see a deal and think it's not a deal, vote cold. But don't have a go at a poster for sharing the information that they found out. Anyway, asking a sales assistant in Asda if a deal is national is pointless. They won't know.

I got a sea gate expansion 1th in Asda yesterday for 24gb but haven't had the time to post it

No memeber of staff is going to be able to confirm if it is a national deal unless they have recieved specific promotion information from head office. ASDA's stock system called SMART can't even tell them the price being charged at other stores, it can only tell them the current price as set by head office. If not all stores are scanning at £34 then it is probably the case that the manager of that specific store has chosen to change the price on the SMART system for his store via the scanner gun which also gives them a recommended price for the reduction, such a change only effects that store.

Bishop Auckland ASDA had the SEL saying £34 but sold out however I did manage to get a 1TB Seagate Expansion Portable Hard Drive for £24 and looked like it was the last one. Bought it on Thursday, store are now displaying out of stock labels for both when I was in on Saturday.

COLD - £200 in petrol to find one

​true if your online only

​how do you know which harddrive has the saves located on as I do this myself ?

You normally do your shopping in Harrods or Selfridges can I be your Toy boy since your in to low price gizmos.

​Saves are stored using xbox live cloud though...

Wow. :confused: This is flaming hot for a portable 2TB drive.

Some of the comments from posters in here make me laugh. Some people are so rude and they enjoy moaning about the quality of the posts made by others

How many people are going to run out to Asda stores now and will not find this,but will buy a lot of other stuff they might otherwise have bought elsewhere are Asda and Tescos playing us for fools.So many deals used to be national now they are getting as much publicity and deal hunters turned customer with just isolated store specific deals.Are they turning the tables on us bargain hunters I think so.Great deal thanks for posting.

Staff always rinse these and or they put behind till so you have to ask and so not to have all brought by one person.

Been to four different shops none had this deal

Interesting comment. In your opinion have you always been an **** hole? Or is it just here?

At least they have the brains to post deals that might help others.

You have managed a whopping one deal in six years. Bravo.

Normal price in Beckton (upon scanning them, said they’re “live”, so they’ll be the indicated price).

But when people have asked the staff usually reply with "probably" never a definitive answer because they don't work nationally!

Shame it's not national, four stores and none have them at this price.

so lucky

Wild
Goose
Chase

HOT!
Never get any decent deals like this in my store - Ever !! I expect even if our store got any the staff would get first dibs on them ......

Got one at feltham asda...one more left...

it easier to post here than it is to ring a store though

Hot deal but nothing doing in my 3 local stores.

Strangely enough, how the poster was going to write up this deal on here probably wasn't top of his thoughts. Normally it's "wow, what a deal, lets buy this", before getting home and going "I'm going to share this".

good deal, wish it was near me

Not a surprise is it in Bradford

​they were at the same price in Bradford, but sold out

Not national, good luck if you find one

I just got the last two at farnborough asda £32, also a ultra scan disk 32gb for £5:50,

still scanning at £73 in Newport Wales :disappointed:

Best deal if you can get it. Most of the time staff hide it!

2tb drive for £36.
don't know why people are voting this cold.
heat from me

where is your shop?

excellent price for 2TB drive...heat

Looks like a one off, phoned my 2 local stores which are very big and stock everything and they are still up and scanning at £73.

is that portable? can you please give me barcode number?
