Last time I did a pickup from Asda I didn't check my substitutions properly.

I had ordered a curry deal, 4 items for a tenner. Ordered 2 curries and 2 rice. Thought they had substituted the rice for a different rice but they had substituted the curries for rice.

So I paid a tenner for 4 microwave rice portions and nothing to go on it.

I felt like Asda had just reached into my pocket and taken an orange note out of it. Bastards
