DELIVEROO users can potentially get more than £10 off tubs of their favourite Christmas chocolates thanks to a savings hack. 

You can get three tubs of Quality Street, Celebrations, Heroes and Roses for just £2.50 each from One Stop on Deliveroo if you follow these steps.

According to the tip-off from a user called bunny_boiler on , One Stop is selling £5 tubs of the festive chocolate favourites. 

You can then use the code ROOUK10 on Deliveroo to get £10 off a £15 spend across your first four orders if you’re a new customer. 

Of course, this does mean this deal won’t be available if you’re using a Deliveroo account you’ve already ordered from. 

The savvy saver says using this trick will take your spend to £7.59 including delivery - or £2.53 a tub - down from £15 plus delivery.

Your delivery fee may vary depending on how far you are from the shop, and some One Stop stores appear to be selling the tubs for £6. 

It’s also worth noting that stock varies across stores and deals can get snapped up quickly, so you might not find the tubs in stock at your local One Stop. 

The Sun did see the chocolate tubs still available in stores in Salford and Taunton, for example, but stocks appeared to be lower in London

It could be worth phoning your local store in advance to check their stock levels before trying to order.

The deal expires on 31 December just before midnight. 

One HotUKDeals user said they managed to get three tubs for £6.30 using the hack, while another said: "Order for £8.09 for 3 tubs. Also added loaf of bread as needed that anyway, so saves nipping out later!"

Another said: "I ordered mine last night when I got home, had to try 4 different one stops as some didn't have all the tins in stock.
Arrived 20 mins later for £6.80."

A third said: "Worked for me. Thank you for the share."

If you’re buying tubs of Quality Street, Roses or Heroes elsewhere, the cheapest you can find them for is £6. 

Tubs of Celebrations are slightly cheaper at £4.49 at Aldi, although they are selling for £6 at Asda

Therefore if you bought three tubs of the chocolates in your local supermarket, you would be paying up to £18. 

That means if you buy using this deal instead, you’ll make a maximum saving of £10.41. 

What other savings can you get on Quality Street?

If you’re looking for more savings on Quality Street - after all, it is a Christmas staple - three retailers have started selling the tins even bigger and cheaper. 

Home Bargains is selling the 813g metal tin for just £7.99 - the equivalent of 98p per 100g of chocolate. 

Asda and Sainsbury’s are selling them for a penny more at £8, much lower than the typical retail price of £12. 

These are better value than the £6 600g plastic tubs sold at Tesco and Aldi, which are the equivalent of £1 per 100g. 

To get the deal at Sainsbury’s, you will need to have a Nectar card - otherwise, the tin will set you back £12 instead. 

You don't need a loyalty card for the Home Bargains or Asda deals.

Another great deal can be found at Morrisons, where you can get two 600g Quality Street tubs for £7 - working out at just 58p per 100g.

To take advantage of the savings, you will need to be a Morrisons More card member.

Elsewhere, Lidl is currently offering Lidl Plus members the chance to pick up Quality Street, Roses or Heroes tubs for £4.49 each, or two for £8.

It's always worth shopping around first to get the best deals ahead of Christmas.

Supermarkets will often battle it out to offer the best deals on household staples and Christmas favourites in the run-up to the big day.
