ASDA (Associated Dairies, if you are old fashioned, Wal*Mart if you are young) took over Netto's UK stores in 2010, to convert them in 2011.
The Woodseats one is one of the first in Sheffield to be converted to a mini-ASDA (I think Manor Top opened earlier?). Quite a change for ASDA to run small shops (whilst Tesco, Sainsburys and Co-op do convenience stores, ASDA tend to stick to the "hypermarket" end of the scale).
But with less scope for growth in big shops, and competition from smaller operations like Lidl/Aldi (with smaller overheads), this is ASDA fighting back by going small.
There was an Asda trolley dumped here several days ago. That disappeared (amazingly, not into the canal at the back). This is a popular drop off point for errant trolleys, many of which end up in the canal. I suspect someone in the houses here likes to “borrow” trolleys to fetch stuff home. You never see anyone walking empty trolleys back into town though.
Photo taken at the Roehampton Hill branch of Asda on the morning of Saturday 5th January 2008, whilst I was waiting for my brother to get some money from the nearby ATM.
Asda's over cautiousness in full effect, pity they forgot about the book title being on the spine too.
Wednesday 8 April 2015 - London, UK: The Pan London Challenge, held at Millwall FC in partnership with the Millwall Community Trust, brought together the four London boroughs which hosted Asda Foundation Community Champions Tournaments over the past year for one final tournament to celebrate the success of the Asda Foundation and Active Communities Network programme partnership, entering its second year.
The ASDA Foundation and Active Communities Network aim to support young people from the most disadvantaged areas of London to improve their skills for employment and other outcomes relating to their attitudes, confidence, self-esteem and education. ACN are delivering a package of sports and youth work to support young people into volunteering, accredited training and work-experience/placements.
The Pan London Challenge featured three different groups of young people engaged through sport across the day. Over 100 U16 and 100 U18 boys featured alongside 40 13-16 year old girls.
The U18 and U16 boys groups took part in a football competition run by Millwall FC Community Trust coaches with the teams consisting of young people from the ASDA Foundation and Active Communities Network programme partnership projects across London.
The girls and U16 boys group also took part in a fitness challenge run by community delivery partners ‘Train Station’. This consisted of six fitness station challenges with young people competing as teams.
After the Train Station challenge the girls took part in a workshop delivered by Active Communities Network trainers focusing on female participation in sport and empowerment.
Tower Hamlets, Sutton, Brent and Enfield were represented at the event through Asda Store Managers, Colleagues and Community Life Champions as well as through young people – in addition to young people from Lewisham, Lambeth and Southwark who participated in the activities, held in the school Easter holidays.
There is now an established delivery programme across the following London boroughs Lambeth, Southwark, - Croydon, Sutton, Lewisham, Tower Hamlets, Enfield, Brent and Ealing and store engagement with Old Kent Road, Ealing, Wembley, Isle of Dogs and Clapham.
Same as the last one, I think Asda should start paying me.

My most intresting images on Flickriver
My Blog Site. Not much on it yet.
First roll back from my double exposure mod on one of my Vivitar Ultra Wide and Slims.
Now I can shoot perfectly aligned double exposures, at least with myself. Although I kept forgetting not to wind one after each shot so ended up with quite a few single exposures on the roll.
