SHOPPERS are rushing to buy a new festive chocolate bar that doubles up as a fun Christmas game.
Bargain retailer Asda is selling Merry Chocolate bars which can be turned into a classic game of dominoes this festive season – and it only costs £3.
An eagle-eyed shopper spotted the steal dead at the bargain chain.
Posting about the proud discovery on Facebook, they wrote: “Chocolate Dominoes Spotted At Asda.”
The post wracked up hundreds of likes and comments with many group members expressing their Christmas excitement.
One such user said: “One way to win is to eat them when others are not looking.”
Another said: “Need to buy this asap.”
One sceptic user wrote: “As kids it was knocked into us not to play with your food.”
Shoppers can play the Dominoes and have fun during festive gatherings using the chocolate bar.
1. Place all the chocolate dominoes face down on the table.
2. Divide the dominoes equally between players, leaving any spares in a pile.
3. Each player sets their dominoes up on their sides facing them.
4. The player holding the double-six, or failing that the double-five and so on, plays first and places the domino face up.
5. Continuing clockwise the next player places a domino matching one of the numbers shown and places it short end to short end. Double numbers are placed long end to short end.
6. If you cannot match a number, then pick one domino from the spares pile. If no spares remain the player knocks on the table and play passes to the next player.
7. The winner is the one who uses up all their hand first and is rewarded with a ‘winner!’ chocolate.
Meanwhile, a chocolate classic is getting a revival just in time for Christmas.
