If you bought a million eggs from Asda you probably wouldn’t get a repeat of your experience. But you were dead right to complain and it is pleasing to hear that you were compensated.

I would like to see the big supermarkets also reimburse people with the cost of bringing the defective item back. If it is food you have to take it back the same day otherwise it may go off and destroy your evidence. I mean imagine buying some pre packed food only to find that when you got home it was mouldy. Imagine the state if you left it until your trip the following week. Ugh! It doesn’t bear thinking about.

I have asked in the past but got nowhere with my request.

One occasion a few years back I bought the Asda own brand fish pie by mistake and it was tasteless. So the following week I presented them the box and asked which counter sold the flavour sachets to go with the fish pie. Their sense of humour was sadly lacking.
