MAJOR bargain retailer slashes price of huge box of Ferrero Rocher leaving fans saying 'that's highly unfair!'
A MAJOR bargain chain has sent chocolate lovers into meltdown after slashing the price of a 24-piece box of Ferrero Rocher to just £1 — sparking a frenzy online.
Shoppers spotted the mega deal at B&M, with customers across the UK now racing to grab the luxury treat.
The 300g box, normally priced at £5, has been reduced by a whopping 80% — now just £1. That's just £3.33 per kilo. Product code: 319629.
One eagle-eyed Facebook user shared the news, posting: 'Ferrero Rocher 24pc Box 300g for £1 at B&M,' triggering hundreds of comments from sweet-toothed bargain hunters.
One fan wrote: 'Well that's highly unfair…I was in there an hour ago and didn't see this post until now. These are my favourites.'
Another asked: 'What time please?' while someone else chimed in: 'I'm impressed.'
Many rushed to their nearest store in the hopes of getting their hands on the cut-price chocolates — with some warning that stock is flying off shelves.
The shock deal follows a similar CHOC SHOCK offer at Heron Foods, where the same 24-piece Ferrero Rocher box was reduced to just £5 — a 55 per cent saving on the usual £11 price tag.
That discount was also hailed as a great option for a last-minute Mother's Day gift. One shopper said: 'Great price if you have a Heron Food store near you and would make an ideal Mother's Day gift too. Everyone loves Ferrero Rocher so well worth stocking up at this fantastic price.'
The chocolates are often seen as a premium treat, perfect for sharing or gifting. Their golden wrapping and posh packaging make them a go-to choice for special occasions.
Ferrero Rocher says its chocolates are 'the perfect gift to share with your loved ones.' Its description adds: 'A whole hazelnut surrounded by delicious layers of crispy wafer, a velvety filling, smooth milk chocolate and finely chopped hazelnut pieces.'
Another delighted shopper said: 'Will be picking up some of these for my son, thanks for sharing.'
A third added: 'Brilliant price, cheapest I've ever seen Ferrero Rocher chocolates for a box this size.'
And it's not just B&M and Heron Foods slashing prices. Morrisons has cut the cost of the same 24-pack from £10.50 to £5 for More Card holders, just in time for Mother's Day on March 30.
Tesco has also joined the chocolate price war, with yellow sticker deals reducing 16-piece boxes (200g) to just £1.75. They're usually £7 — so shoppers are saving over 70%.
One savvy shopper, Matthew Dawes, shared his delight in a Facebook group, saying he nabbed three boxes. He joked: 'Me: Shall I go to little Tesco, see if they have anything nice for pudding?' His wife replied: 'Can do but I doubt you'll find anything.' His response? 'Hold my beer.'
The post racked up more than 200 likes and 35 comments, with others eager to find the deal at their local store.
While prices vary across supermarkets, fans are urged to shop around and act quickly — as these bargain boxes won't stay on shelves for long.
Retail experts also advise checking for loyalty card discounts and using online comparison sites to find the best value.
With Mother's Day fast approaching, these sweet deals could make the perfect gift — without breaking the bank.
So if you're looking to treat your mum, a friend, or just yourself, now's the time to stock up. But be quick — once they're gone, they're gone.
