A MAJOR supermarket is selling tubs of Quality Streets for a shockingly low £3.95.
Sainsbury’s has also dropped the price of its Creme Selection share bag to just £3.50.
But you’ll need to be quick, the price cut for its festive chocolate box is only running between today and December 2.
Shoppers can get their hands on the reduced goodies if they have a Nectar card, otherwise, the box costs £6.
You can grab the handy loyalty card on Sainsbury’s website by filling out a form for free.
The offer is for a 600g box full of individually wrapped milk and dark chocolates, toffees, and fruit cremes.
This is currently the best on the market, even beating Aldi‘s low price of £4.49.
But prices can change regularly and deals can start and end at any time, so the chocolate tubs could still be cheaper between now and Christmas.
Sainsbury’s is far from the only supermarket to cut the price of its Christmas chocolates in the run-up to the festive season.
Remember to always compare prices when shopping so you know you’re paying the right amount for what you’re getting.
A great way to do this is via the comparison site Trolley which will show the prices for every store.
A quick search with the Google Shopping/Product tab can also bring up what some retailers are selling items for too.
It’s also worth noting that fresh deals are sure to crop up as we get closer to Christmas.
Prices have already been slashed to as low as £2 at Morrisons – although this deal has now ended.
Plus B&M recently reduced the cost of a tub to £3.50 – but this has now gone back up to £5.50.
It’s worth going direct to discounter’s websites like B&M and Home Bargains too as they often have cheap chocs on sale.
For other chocolate box deals, Ocado is selling a 385g box of celebrations for £4.95.
Meanwhile, you can get your hands on a tub of Heroes for £6 at Asda, Tesco and Ocado.
Nectar is a loyalty card which is free to sign up for and allows customers to collect and spend points.
The scheme provides discounted prices on hundreds of products in-store and online.
Much like Tesco‘s Clubcard, you earn points when you buy selected products in-store by scanning your card or app when you checkout.
You need to be 18 or over to become a member and will need to register online to get your Nectar prices.
You need a Nectar account to get Nectar Prices and Your Nectar Prices.
It takes a few minutes to join and you get other great benefits too. You’ll need to be 18 or over to become a member.
If you are shopping online, make sure you add your Nectar card to your online Sainsbury’s account.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save money on your Christmas shopping.
Limit the amount of presents – buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb.
Instead, why not organise a Secret Santa between your inner circles so you’re not having to buy multiple presents.
Plan ahead – if you’ve got the stamina and budget, it’s worth buying your Christmas presents for the following year in the January sales.
Make sure you shop around for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you’re not forking out more than you should though.
Buy in Boxing Day sales – some retailers start their main Christmas sales early so you can actually snap up a bargain before December 25.
Delivery may cost you a bit more, but it can be worth it if the savings are decent.
Shop via outlet stores – you can save loads of money shopping via outlet stores like Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts.
They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually any wear and tear is minor.
