Send your Valentine a message through the Green Room


What with all the excitement of our Coleraine proposal and the recent Your Asda wedding competition to get an all-expenses paid ceremony and reception in an Asda store, it’s no surprise that we’re feeling a little bit romantic here at the Green Room at the moment.

And with Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we wondered if you’d like to join in and use the Green Room to send a message to the current (or potential) love of your life!

If you and your partner met at work, post a comment below and tell us how it happened.

If you’re still looking for love and would like to send a romantic Valentine’s message to someone at work, post a message to them below and you never know what might happen!

If you’d like to send us a picture or video too, just use the ‘Join in’ link on the right-hand side of any Green Room page.

If you’d like to keep things a secret, we don’t mind if you call yourself snugglebunny or cheekychops in the box that asks for your name – just this once.

We promise not to tell!

Calling all ECs: Asda's new store locator needs your help!

We’re in the process of re-developing one of the most popular parts of asda.com and we need your help to really make it stand out from the crowd.

The Asda store locator is used by thousands of existing and potential customers every day to help them find the best store for their shopping trip.

We’re currently building a great new version of the store locator which is much easier and quicker to use and gives you the chance to share specific information about your store – including a message from the GSM, his or her photo, some friendly driving directions, and even a gallery of store photos.

And that’s where you come in!

Is your store taking part in our Big Read storytelling promotion?

Our Big Read promotion has been taking place this week in stores up and down the country and we’d love to hear how it’s been going.

Research conducted by our Books team suggests that the classic stories that some of you may have grown up on are slowly but surely falling out of favour and being replaced with more modern fiction such as Harry Potter and Twilight, or with books by celebrity authors.

Our Big Read puts some of the classic books firmly back in the spotlight.
