A company has recalled some rum products from Asda and Aldi over fears that some bottles may contain small fragments of glass.
The cuts come as the supermarket is expected to post the worst sales figures among its major rivals for the festive period.
Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Tesco have cut the cost of their petrol to under £1 a litre - bringing "Christmas cheer" to motorists.
The retailer is credited with introducing the sales event to the UK in 2013, but says customers don't want the flash sales.
Asda has recalled a number of gluten-free products, warning that they could actually contain the protein composite.
A possible fault in packs of 'Little Angels 2 Newborn Soothers 0+ Months' were discovered after a customer complaint.
A children's Spiderman dress-up suit has been recalled by Asda due to safety fears.
The light-up costume has been taken off shelves across the country after an investigation by the supermarket chain discovered a fault with the battery.
The investigation follows a complaint from Steve Slaughter, who bought the £12.50 outfit for his son Stephen to wear on World Book Day.
Mr Slaughter, from Middlesbrough, complained to Asda earlier this month after the detachable chest piece - containing a battery pack - appeared to blow up and flew across the living room after it was left lying on top of a storage unit.
A spokeswoman for Asda said: "Asda George has issued a recall of its Spiderman light-up dress-up costume. The wrong batteries have been included inside the costume's removable light-up unit resulting in a potential safety issue.
"The care and safety of our customers is our number one priority, which is why we have taken the precautionary decision to recall the product based on the outcome of our investigation."
Customers who have already purchased the costume have been advised to return it and claim a full refund.
Firefighters rescued 42 people after they became stranded in the Asda supermarket in Kilmarnock by heavy flooding.
Latest tests on fresh chicken being sold at major supermarkets show contamination of campylobacter has increased.
The CEO of Asda has said prices would rise in an independent Scotland. Following comments from John Lewis earlier, Andy Clarke said that the supermarket would have to 'reflect' the costs of operating in Scotland.
If we were no longer to operate in one state with one market and – broadly – one set of rules, our business model would inevitably become more complex. We would have to reflect our cost to operate here.
