Asda will be giving away hundreds of pounds worth of vouchers during December through the world’s smallest supermarket delivery vans.
This is part of the supermarket's new ‘Gnome Delivery’ service fleet which are fully functioning replicas of regular supermarket home delivery vans.
In a statement, Asda shared: "Measuring only 70cm long and 30cm high, they’re the perfect size for a gnome and have just enough room in the back for a compact Christmas shop."
They continued: "The fleet of five Gnome Delivery vans will be turning heads and raising smiles as they zip up and down the pavements, supplying free tiny Asda shops to the doors of hundreds of houses in London, Cardiff, Glasgow, Leeds and Manchester.
"Each tiny shop in the back of the vans will include Asda’s award-winning Exceptional mince pies (as seen in the advert) alongside a selection of other small, delicious festive treats.
"Residents receiving a Gnome Delivery simply need to open the tiny van and take their delightful free delivery inside."
