    Watching people raid through the fridges at Asda just to find a bottle of pop with their name on, unreal.

    It certainly is, I've seen people scrambling through the shelves at Asda looking for one with their name on it, absolute madness.

    That doesn't mean they are all buying extra bottles, just the same people looking for particular bottles maybe?

    my kids names arn't in the top 150 popular names, so not available.

    I should have named them something more traditional like Faisel, Mandeep, Priya, saima salma, Imran

    What a brilliant idea it is. They've pulled off a real masterstroke with that one because even the really little bottles which are usually about 85p have got names on them, and they're charging £1.10 for them and people aren't even battering an eyelid.

    My girlfriend was a bit annoyed though that they don't have her name, yet they have 2 different spellings for Rachel/Racheal, Sara/Sarah, Sean/Shaun, and Steven/Stephen, as well as Sandeep and Mandeep.

    Pepsi have been doing it for years, although, for some reason they only used one name on their bottles. Who knew Max was such a popular name?
