One shopper shared the find with on LatestDeals.co.uk, sharing a photograph of the chocolate tubs.
That makes it the cheapest deal on the market right now.
It is important to know that this deal is in store only.
Shoppers were buzzing with the find with one person replying to the post: “Wow. It’s an absolutely fantastic deal from Farmfoods. I will pop into my local store at the weekend. Thanks for sharing this yummy deal.”
Another wrote: I’ll be buying a of these celebrations for Easter tomorrow and other bargains cheers for sharing.”
A third said: “Oh yes fantastic offer for this price as it’s very good to share with friends and family.”
A fourth chimed in: “What a fantastic bargain on these box of chocolates and my sisters birthday is coming so guess who is getting chocolates.”
Tesco is currently selling the same item for £6 although it is important to note that it is reduced to £3.50 for Clubcard holders.
Sainsbury’s had reduced the tub to £3.50 but the item is currently listed as out of stock on their website.
Elsewhere, Ocado is selling the sweet treats for £6.
However, Farmfoods still comes out on top for bargain hunters.
Meanwhile, other major bargains could be heading your way as Tesco’s plans to start giving yellow sticker deals to customers for free.
The UK’s biggest supermarket is set to introduce the freebies on food due to go out of date across selected Express stores as part of a trial.
The free products will be available for shoppers who visit these branches after 9.30pm.
The move comes as Tesco looks to cut its food waste.
The supermarket giant said it will continue giving some of the end-of-life products to charity as it currently does.
Staff will also get priority for the free products reduced earlier in the day.
How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don’t have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs…
Go own brand – if you’re not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you’ll save by going for the supermarket’s own brand bars.
Shop around – if you’ve spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it’s cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you’re getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers – supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they’ve been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars – most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you’ve got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
