Asda Smart Price Stuff - Trys and Reviews

I looked and can't find a thread for Asda's Smart price range. I have been trying this range for the last few weeks. Some things I have been pleasently surprised by.
I thought it would be nice if we had a thread were we try and then review a product....
Here goes:
sp Toilet Rolls - Very small and need to use twice as much - Wont buy again
sp Air Freshner - I thought it smelt quite nice - Would buy again
sp Furniture Polish - I thought was okay - Would buy again
sp Yorkshire Puddings - Tasteless - Would not buy again
sp Scones - Lovely - Would buy again

When I think of some more I'll add to the list. Please join in folks:D

    we have the tinned tomatoes - all tastes the same once its made into bolognese!
    and we have the lasagne sheets and cant tell the difference between them and brand name ones.

    oh and i second the furniture polish aswell!
    What matters most is how well you walk through the fire
  • I have been using the smart price biological washing powder for my OH working clothes and it gets them as clean as leading brand powder.
  • we have just had som of the packet instant custard and it isnt very nice
  • I don't like Asda Smartprice pasta, Morrissons Value pasta twists are much nicer!

    SP Lasagne sheets are ok,
    Oranges and satsumas are great
    Grapes not so good cause the SP ones are seeded and my OH finds it too difficult to fiddle about with seeds.:rolleyes:
    Scones they are great I buy the big pack and freeze individually so I can take out when we have visitors or for quick breakfast.
    Kitchen roll-okayish but you need alot to soak up a spill
    Strawberries- Good again , but fruits fruit really:j
    SP Flour and SR Flour- What can I say Flour is Flour to me :o
    Think thats all I have tried yet, Great thread by the way :T

  • Jelly is ok
    Jam is a little bland and not very fruity
    Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together. :p
  • we will eat most sp tinned fruit or veg ,
    again the toilet roll is rubbish
    i always use sp flour
    some of the biccies ,gingernuts are nice as are the custard creams

    not keen on sp choc digestives

    will use sp lemon cleaner

    I use sp bio washing powder all the time and it`s every bit as good as expensive brands - DS is a mechanic and it usually gets his clothes clean.
    Prefer sp digestives to McV`s, but not so keen on rich teas. sp tomatoes, peas and carrots are all in my cupboard too - lots of pretty green and white tins. Lol.

    Smart price bread is horrid.
    Smart price flour is fine.
    Butter is ok, but I prefer country life
    Oats are fine
    Kids like the cereals - I don't.
    Beans are ok
    Tomatoes, no different to any other
    Fruit and veg are ok, but don't seem to last as long as others.
    I like the teabags - several people have also said they make a nice cup of tea. You do have to brew them a little longer though, but at 28p for 80, I'm not going to complain about that.
    Soups are a bit, blah.
    Fish fingers....yeuch.
    Coffee..yuck. well, hub thinks so - I think it was ok. A little like mellow birds.
    Proud to be dealing with my debts :T
