Supermarket giant ASDA has responded to claims it is 'shaming poor people' who are shopping in its stores. The retailer has found itself in hot water with shoppers struggling to make ends meet this week.
Earlier this month, ASDA brought out a new Essentials Range. The product line is aimed to help people shopping on a budget, and can easily be spotted by its bright yellow stickers.

I’m not bothered if everyone knows how much I’m being screwed over by the government and large companies and covid! A girls gotta eat!"
Nikki Piercy said: "I think it does the opposite, if you are looking for the cheapest then it stands out. You don't have to spend time hovering over everything trying to find the cheapest. Bright and bold, I love it! Well done Asda."
Pat Mortimer commented: "I am an Asda colleague and I don't think anyone should be embarrassed about the packaging whatsoever. I buy some of the products and they taste the same as the more expensive products. I really think that is the most important factor."
Clive Farnham said: "I couldn't give two toots who sees what's in my basket!! it's no one else's business. No one should
