SHOPPERS are racing to Home Bargains to grab a limited-edition drink selling for a dirt cheap price.
The unique product combines the favours of an iconic soft drink and a popular cookie that foodies love worldwide.
Home Bargain is selling limited-edition cans of the all-new Coca-Cola Oreo flavour for just 75p.
An eagle-eyed shopper spotted the unique drink at one of the Home Bargains’ stores.
Sharing a picture of their proud discovery on the popular Facebook page NewsFoodUK, the customer wrote: “Limited Edition Oreo Coca-Cola spotted at Home Bargains!”
The post wracked up hundreds of likes and comments with many group members tagging pals to talk about the unique flavour.
One user said: “I need to try this!”
While another shopper shared: “OMG! This is great news.”
A third person shared: “Feels like I have been waiting for this all my life.”
Coca-Cola announced earlier it is set to launch a new divisive flavour inspired by the classic biscuits.
The unique beverage will be available in 250ml slimline cans and is said to combine the classic Coca-Cola taste with “flavourful hints” inspired by Oreos.
Customers are also able to find it in select restaurants, including Pizza Express, Popeyes and Slim Chickens.
Oana Vlad, global vice president of brand strategy at The Coca-Cola Company said the collaboration combined the “playfulness” of Oreo with the “magic” of Coca-Cola.
It’s not the first time Coca-Cola has brought out a different flavour.
Earlier in the year, Coca-Cola Lemon returned for what was believed to be the first time since 2006 – and was available at all retailers nationwide.
Fans went wild saying they “need” and “must have this”.
One fan said: “My dreams have come true.”
While another said: “I feel like this is screaming my name!”
A third said: “Finally a new drink that doesn’t contain sweeteners or Stevia.”
Other fans suggested it would be a good drink to have as a mixer with their alcohol.
One said: “To have with our vodka!”
The drink was discontinued in 2006 but remains available in various countries, including Spain, Portugal and France.
In 2007, the company launched Diet Coke Citrus Zest, which featured a combination of lemon and lime flavours.
But this was quietly discontinued in 2018, much to the dismay of loyal fans.
Coke isn’t the only brand to bring out new flavours recently either.
Pepsi MAX Mango hit shelves last year and proved a hit with fans.
The beverage was described by manufacturers as “the brand’s best ever” new summer flavour.
Shoppers have also been racing to get their hands on a “banging” new Sprite flavour released in time for summer.
The Cherry Lime Sprite can be purchased online from Ebay, King’s Candy, World Snacks UK, Dunipace Village Store and several other stores.
Tango also released Raspberry Blast and Cherry Blast flavours, which are the two flavours in the Ice Blast slushy.
THERE are plenty of ways to save on your grocery shop.
You can look out for yellow or red stickers on products, which show when they’ve been reduced.
If the food is fresh, you’ll have to eat it quickly or freeze it for another time.
Making a list should also save you money, as you’ll be less likely to make any rash purchases when you get to the supermarket.
Going own brand can be one easy way to save hundreds of pounds a year on your food bills too.
This means ditching “finest” or “luxury” products and instead going for “own” or value” type of lines.
Plenty of supermarkets run wonky veg and fruit schemes where you can get cheap prices if they’re misshapen or imperfect.
For example, Lidl runs its Waste Not scheme, offering boxes of 5kg of fruit and vegetables for just £1.50.
If you’re on a low income and a parent, you may be able to get up to £442 a year in Healthy Start vouchers to use at the supermarket too.
Plus, many councils offer supermarket vouchers as part of the Household Support Fund.
