She posted pictures of her savings on the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK.
According to the mum, she found some of her bargain buys on “the normal shelves”, while others could be found in the reduced section.
“Apparently they have a number of lines they are no longer stocking so are reduced to clear,” she told her fellow Facebook users.
And despite the shockingly low prices, the poster said all her Asda buys had “really long dates”.
Her haul included everything from cereal and snacks to cleaning buys and toiletries.
“I bought all the Radox Shower gel bottles on the shelf as it’s the one I use but the rest, there were loads left on the shelves,” she explained.
“It may seem a lot to buy but I have six children, including four teenagers, so we get through a lot of food and the amount of shower gel we get through is crazy.”
The photos in the post showed the size of her impressive shopping spree.
She picked up 10 bottles of Radox Shower Gel, which normally retails at £1.44, for just 50p each.
The mum also purchased four Radox Shower Gel refill pouches at 88p each, these are available on Asda’s website for £1.73.
She picked up a Carex Hand Soap refill pouch, reduced from £3.50 to 80p.
The mum also stocked up on five Cussons Creations hand wash for half off, at 50p each.
She made significant savings on a 64-pack of Finish Dishwasher Tablets after the price was slashed from £11.38 to £2.98.
Also included in the haul were six tubes of £1.50 Colgate Sensitive Toothpaste, which were 50% off, and three tubes of Colgate Cool Stripes Toothpaste, reduced from £3 to 75p each.
She picked up two bottles of the Zoflora Multi-Purpose Cleaning Spray, which was available for 50% off at £1.25.
How to save at Asda
Shop the budget range
Savvy shopper Eilish Stout-Cairns recommends that shoppers grab items from Asda’s Just Essentials range.
She said: “Asda’s budget range is easy to spot as it’s bright yellow! Keep your eyes peeled for yellow and you’ll find their Just Essentials range.
“It’s great value and I’ve found it has a much wider selection of budget items compared to other supermarkets.
Sign up to Asda Rewards
The savvy-saver also presses on the importance of signing up to Asda’s reward scheme.
She said: “Asda Rewards is free to join and if you shop at Asda you should absolutely sign up.
“As an Asda Rewards member, you’ll get exclusive discounts and offers, and you’ll also be able to earn 10% cashback on Star Products.
“This will go straight into your cashpot, and once you’ve earned at least £1, you can transfer the money in your cashpot into ASDA vouchers.
We’ve previously rounded up the best supermarket loyalty schemes – including the ones that will save you the most money.
Look out for booze deals
Eilish always suggests that shoppers looking to buy booze look out for bargain deals.
She said: “Asda often has an alcohol offer on: buy six bottles and save 25%.
“The offer includes selected bottles with red, white and rose options, as well as prosecco. There are usually lots of popular bottles included, for example, Oyster Bay Hawkes Bay Merlot, Oyster Bay Hawkes Bay Merlot and Freixenet Prosecco D.O.C.
“Obviously, the more expensive the bottles you choose, the more you save.”
Join Facebook groups
The savvy saver also recommends that fans of Asda join Facebook groups to keep in the know about the latest bargains in-store.
Eilish said: “I recommend joining the Latest Deals Facebook Group to find out about the latest deals and new launches in store.
“Every day, more than 250,000 deal hunters share their latest bargain finds and new releases.
“For example, recently a member shared a picture of Asda’s new Barbie range spotted in store.
“Another member shared the bargain outdoor plants she picked up, including roses for 47p, blackcurrant bushes for 14p and topiary trees for 14p.”
The mum also nabbed a six-pack of Appletiser, which normally costs £3.24 for just 25p.
An eight-pack Rice Krispie Squares was reduced from £3 to 75p, with the Facebook user adding three to her trolley.
She also picked up six boxes of Cheerios, which normally cost £3.50 a-piece for just 28p each.
There were six boxes of Pop Tarts in the haul, reduced from £3 each to just 75p.
And while her two 500 gram tins of KP Nuts only cost her £1.05 each, a 250 gram bag would set you back £3.25 on the Asda Website.
The mum also picked up seven 32p Quakers Oats Pots, which normally retail for £1.29.
Finally, she added two tins of Bisto Gravy Granules to her trolley for just £1.86, a half-off special.
In total, a shopping haul that should’ve set the mum back £136.09 only cost her £44.11, saving her a whopping £91.98.
Facebook users shared their thoughts on the impressive savings in the comments section.
“What an amazing shop,” wrote one impressed commenter.
“Wow this is excellent. I wish we had an Asda near,” said another person.
“From a family of four, two of them being teenagers. That is not a lot. Congratulations on your bargains,” commented a third Facebook user.
