When it comes to shopping during a cost of living crisis everyone is looking for the same thing - rock bottom prices. But when Asda started selling vases shaped like a female backside for £2.50 customers didn't know what to comment on more.
Some took to social media to question the somewhat risqué 'private parts' design, while others paused to question whether or not the reduced £2.50 tag was still too much to ask. However, when one savvy punter pointed out something about the vases' appearance hundreds of fellow bargain hunters couldn't help but agree with her.
Commenting on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook page - which supplies regular alerts about the latest good buys nationwide - eagle-eyed Rachel Mason posted, "Is it just me or does the one that's showing its bum look like a dog's face?" "Yes, I see the bum as a large dog with two eyes and a nose," replied another.

"The dimples in the small of the back are its eyes and the bum cheeks are its jowls," posted a third. "I can't unsee it now either - so thanks for that." Nevertheless, the items, billed as a 'grey body vase', seemed to win themselves a few fans online.
"Take me after work to get one," said Jade Browne. "Get down to Asda and buy me one," added someone else, excitedly.
That said, the majority weren't that keen on the anatomical flower holders, which are thought to have been previously priced around £15. "My six-year-old saw these in Asda, picked one up & bellowed, 'back bum, front bum!'" posted one mum.
"Is it reduced cause it’s got a crack in it?" joked one shopper, while another posted, "Sorry but the only reason they're only £2.50 is because nobody wanted to buy them. I've also seen candles like this too - I mean, why?"
