The discount website Hot UK Deals has reported various Asda stores across the UK have been spotted selling the following items for £2.25:
- Quality Street (600g)
- Celebrations (600g)
- Roses (550g)
- Heroes (550g)
These discounts come just days after consumer watchdog Which? revealed prices of popular festive chocolates including Quality Street had increased in price this Christmas, some by more than 50%.
Shoppers have been crazy over the reported bargain, taking to the site to share their excitement.
One person said: "chocothon has started."
While another person, commenting on the new chocolate prices, said: "Bought 4 tubs in Asda Edinburgh Chesser on Boxing Day."
A third shopper added: "Got 3 in Asda Hatfield just before they closed, £2.25 a pop, well pleased.
"They were also giving away bags of Brussel sprouts FREE! (hardly anyone took them, it's not chocolate is it!)"

While shoppers took to the comments section to reveal the sites that had this deal, it seems not all Asda stores have the chocolates available at the £2.25 discounted price.
One disappointed chocolate fan, having searched for the deal at their local Asda, commented: "another wild goose chase."
Another person added: "None online."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
