FAQ

- I am seeing \u* before my outputs(for example in price) This is a unicode symbol. For example: \u00a3 is a UK pound sign, so \u00a3250.00 would be £250 if you encoded the unicode character.

- The URL output from searchresults.py is not a full URL Add https://www.amazon.co.uk in front of it. (Or whatever amazon region you want to scrape, this example goes to .co.uk)
