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."
