ASDA not showing Smart Price products?
I've noticed that some ASDA Smart Price products have started to not be shown on their website when you search for the product. For example, a search for "baked beans" shows the own brand and branded items but the SP one is conspicuous by its absence. A search on "smart price baked beans" finds it. A cynical ploy to trick…

Xsell Chicken Nuggets
Hi there all. My family are huge fans of Xsell nuggets,I know that I can make my own, but they don't taste as nice, and my family are convinced that they're McDonalds nuggets.
