Major supermarket slashes price of Quality Street, Celebrations & Heroes tubs as shoppers rush to nab deal
SHOPPERS are rushing to buy tubs of chocolate after a major supermarket slashed their prices.
Quality Street, Celebrations, Cadbury’s Heroes and Roses are going for £6 each at Morrisons, but the retailer is offering a deal for More Card customers who buy two tubs.
Those who are eligible can pay just £8 for two of the Christmas favourite collections.
There is a maximum of two per customer.
The offer was posted in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group by member Tracy Rudd Christopher.
Not everyone was impressed with the offer though.
One group member, Leita Fenn, said £8 was “expensive” for the treats.
Another member, Silvanna Yolanda, said the items were £4.40 in Tesco with a Clubcard.
One user, James Gorringe, wrote: “For everyone getting confused, this offer is 2 tubs for £8 when you scan your Morrisons More Card.
“Not £8 each. And yes I’m sure we are all aware that Asda had 2 tubs for £5 last weekend.”
Amanda Shaw wrote: “I got a tub of Quality Street in Aldi for £3.49.”
The Sun reported last month how a Cadbury treat that shoppers thought was “extinct” was spotted on the shelves at B&M.
It marked the return of an iconic chocolate bar – but this time in miniature form.
A picture of the Cadbury Fuse Mini Treats was posted to a Newfoodsuk Facebook group.
It wracked up more than 500 reactions and 70 shares.
Overexcited chocolate lovers rushed to the comments, with one telling their friend: “If you see these buy all of them.”
Others pointed out that the Mini Fuse Treats hailed the return of a cult classic – the Fuse bar.
Fuse, consisting of milk chocolate, nuts, raisins, crisp cereal and fudge pieces was another Cadbury’s classic.
The bar was originally launched in 1996 but lasted for a decade and disappeared from shelves in the mid-2000s.
After being discontinued in 2006, it does occasionally appear on specialist websites such as Bombon.
