Asda Washing Up Liquid

Asda washing up liquid comes "2 for £1" which compares favourably to the likes of Persil which costs 99p for one bottle in my local shop (cheaper in Asda…but then if I was actually in Asda I could buy their own brand, couldn't I?). Therefore the question that springs to my mind is, since brand names cost about twice as much, are they twice as good, do they last twice as long, or are they twice as nice to use?  The packaging The bottles this stuff come in are highly unremarkable, just a clear plastic affair (so you can see the colour, and therefore deduce the scent of each version) ... more

With so many weird and wonderful products out there on the market for us consumers it is all too easy to dismiss something as simple as a washing up liquid, after all you only need it to clean the dishes not much important about that is there? Yet all our supermarkets have shelves and shelves full of different brands making wonderful promises about how lovely our dishes will be after using them, how clean, how fresh, how pleasant smelling.............you may not think there's a lot of difference between one brand and the next and imply grab whatever catches your eye first, I used to play about ... more

As most people who know me, I’m always on the lookout for a bargain and I love the usual brilliant value of Asda’s own make brands. Most of the time they are good quality copies of the product they are trying to mimic.

There are a few to choose from, but I am ... more

I love to cook, and as a result I always have a lot of dishes to wash, so I need something that is reliable, cuts through grease easily, and isn't going to wreck my hands - and Asda own brand washing up liquid ticks all those boxes . These are always on offer at 2 for £1, which is a pretty good price considering a bottle of Fairy in a slightly smaller bottle costs 96 pence . With Asdas own brand being a little over half the price when purchased on the multibuy offer, does that mean it's only half as good ? Not at all! The packaging for this is just a clear plastic bottle, thruogh which you can ... more

When it comes to buying washing up liquids I tend to not really ever go for what I think of as exotic fragranced liquids. I like original fragrances not stuff that smells liken bath foam to wash what I eat with and cook in with, however I was curious a couple of weeks back to try a washing up liquid called strawberry and apricot as I'd never heard or seen such a thing before and at only 88p for a bottle containing 740ml of it, it seemed a risk worth taking to me! The Packaging: The washing up liquid comes in a see thorugh plastic bottle with a red plastic flip top lid to the top of it ... more
