‘I’d actually cry’ shoppers wail as Stacey Solomon fan spots glaring issue with £5.50 buy from her Asda home range
FANS of Stacey Solomon have been going wild for her new collection with George Home.
The budget-friendly range includes 268 pieces, with Stacey herself having designed 180 of them.
But some fans of the Loose Women star have already noticed a bit of an issue with one of the bargain buys.
One shopper took to TikTok to see if others had the same problem, and it turns out she’s not the only one.
The range, which hit the shelves on September 6th has loads of staples for the home, like glass jars for kitchen storage.
However, one of the jars, which seemed to be the perfect size for storing dried spaghetti might’ve just missed the mark, as the shopper found out.
“I love Stacey Solomon but this needs to be a bit taller,” she wrote over the clip, before showing herself trying to squish in the spaghetti.
The jar, which is available to buy for just £5.50, comes with a lid to help keep produce fresh.
But the shopper was stunned to find she was unable to put the air-tight lid back on the jar once it was filled with dried spaghetti.
She captioned the clip: “I absolutely LOVE Stacey Solomon so so sooo much, this is absolutely no hate towards her – hence why I bought all the jars (some multiple).
“However this one is a little on the shorter side.”
The shopper asked for other ideas on what she could keep in the jar, but admitted she had her heart set on storing spaghetti in it.
Other Asda fans confessed they had the same problem, with one even revealing she cut her spaghetti to fit in the jar.
“I literally cut mine to fit, as crazy as that sounds,” one said.
“I snapped about 3cm off mine to make it fit,” a second chimed in.
And a third had the same problem: “I had to snap it to fit now it’s just my ‘show spaghetti’.”
“You’d be surprised how many don’t fit spaghetti, I wanted one and had to take my packet of pasta with me in the end,” someone else commented.
And another said: “I’m pretty sure people had the same problem with Mrs Hinch‘s range!”
Luckily, people did have some other ideas of what she could use the jar for.
“I put my utensils in mine, just kept the lid off,” one wrote.
Another said.”I have oats/cereal in mine.”
Meanwhile, someone else suggested using it to store other pasta shapes, like penne, instead.
And others thought it could be put to use for storing scent boosters for laundry.
Speaking about the collection when it launched, Stacey shared: “I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I launched my homeware collection in Asda.
“I’m having so much fun working with the team and creating this collection has been a dream.
“It’s perfect for anyone that loves making the home cosy in preparation for the darker nights, and I’m always proud of the great quality and value.
“Our kitchen is the heart of Pickle Cottage, so I’m excited to be introducing kitchen and bakeware to the collection for the first time ever.
“With Halloween and Christmas around the corner, there will be lots of new decorations to come… I love how special and fun they make the house feel for the whole family.
“I really hope this range brings you just as much joy as it has me.”
