Morrisons is doing four tubs of Christmas choc for £5 – but you’ll have to be quick

WE all know Christmas is the best time to munch on chocolate and sweets - and now Morrisons is selling four tubs of just that for £5.

But the offer is only available for a limited time and as long stocks last, so you’ll need to be quick.

Morrisons' offer includes Cadbury Heroes and Celebrations as well as Maynards Bassetts Wine Gums and Jelly Babies.

The chocolate tubs normally cost £2 and the fruity sweets £3 per tub, so customers who pick up one tub each of the four will save £5.

Customers who prefer the sweets before the chocolate and buy four tubs of those instead, will save a total of £7.

It is currently the cheapest deal around compared to other supermarkets.

Tesco is selling Cadbury Heroes for £1.50, down from £3, compared to Asda, which sells the chocolate tub for £2.50, down from £4.

Tesco is also offering Celebrations at the same price as Cadbury Heroes, while Iceland is selling two tubs of Celebrations for £4, or £3 for one.

Both Sainsbury's and Tesco are also selling Maynards Bassets Wine Gums and Jelly Babies at a £1 discount - customers can pick up the packs for £1.50 each at Tesco or £2 each at Sainsbury's.

These prices will come in handy if you're not keen to pick up a large amount of tubs.

But if you see this as the perfect opportunity to stock up in time for Christmas, keep in mind that Morrisons doesn't allow each customer to buy more than 20 promotional items.

You may also want to be careful about how much you eat, the packs which range from 185g-400g, contain between 329-493 calories per 100 g.

Perhaps understandably, the chocolate tubs have the most calories with 475 calories and 493 calories per 100g.

If you're unable to pop by a Morrisons store, you can order the tubs online but you have to do so by October 9.

Customers who like to buy chocolate at Christmas should watch out for festive packaging, some shops charge double just because of this.

Recently it was also revealed that Quality Street had ditched the Honeycomb Crunch flavour, after bringing back Toffee Deluxe.

Meanwhile, from mid-October Morrisons shopper will no longer be able to enjoy the lucrative option of buying gift cards in order to earn points - the supermarket chain has decided to cut the points earned by 80 per cent.
