ade-in accepts gadgets like mobile phones, satnavs, digital cameras, MP3 players and portable games consoles, and from June customers will be able to trade in larger electronic gadgets such as laptops, tablets and games consoles.

The service is backed by a promise that Asda will not be beaten on price by Mazuma, Envirofone, Tesco, Sainsbury's and Boots. It will scan the prices offered by these competitors at the time the electrical gadget is entered on the Asda site. If the customer can show that Asda's price is not the best offer for any particular gadget in 24 hours, it will pay the difference.
