B&M shoppers rush to snap up rare Australian Cadbury treat back on shelves
B&M shoppers are rushing out to buy a rare Aussie Cadbury treat that's back on shelves.
The retailer is known for selling a variety of quirky chocolates, with one in particular recently catching customers' attentions.
1
The discounter is stocking packs of Cadbury Dairy Milk Rounds, usually only seen down under, for £1.25.
One shopper posted a picture of a box of the rare chocs on the Food Finds UK Facebook page after finding them in their local B&M branch.
The post has notched up hundreds of likes and comments from shoppers desperate to nab a pack.
One, tagging a friend, posted: "Bit of us."
Meanwhile, a second commented: "Love those."
And a third added: "Yes please....yummy."
Anyone looking to snap up a pack of the rare Dairy Milk Rounds won't be able to order them online as B&M doesn't offer a home delivery service.
You aren't guaranteed to find them in your local branch either so bear that in mind before heading out to buy some.
Remember, you can find your nearest B&M branch by using the retailer's store locator tool via bmstores.co.uk/stores.
In any case, make sure you shop around when buying a product like this as you might find it cheaper elsewhere.

However, in this case we couldn't find any other retailers selling the Dairy Milk Cadbury Rounds.
CADBURY LAUNCHES NEW BAR
Cadbury has confirmed it is launching a new Dairy Milk bar in days.
The Sun exclusively revealed the Iced Latte bars will hit retailer's shelves in June.
The new flavour combines classic Dairy Milk chocolate with a creamy coffee filling and crunchy biscuit pieces.
The chocolate brand is also introducing four limited-edition Dairy Milk Summer Edition bars for £2.
The bars are wrapped in packaging that changes its appearance when cooled.
Mara Popa, from Cadbury's parent company Mondelez, said: "With our limited-edition Cadbury Dairy Milk Summer Edition Bars and innovative colour-changing packaging, we're celebrating the fun and unique ways people enjoy their chocolate."
It's not the first time Cadbury has launched a coffee-inspired chocolate bar, drawing on the nation's love of the hot drink.
B&M shoppers recently spotted Cadbury's Twirl Iced Latte in stores, giving the bar glowing praise.
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.

Bargain Hunt expert jailed for offences under Terrorism Act
A BBC Bargain Hunt art expert who failed to report a series of high-value art sales to a man suspected of financing the militant group Hezbollah has been jailed for two and a half years. Oghenochuko Ojiri, 53, sold artworks worth a total of about £140,000 to Nazem Ahmad, a man designated by US authorities as a suspected financier for the Lebanese organisation, a court hearing was told last month. Ojiri, of Brent, north London, previously pleaded guilty to eight offences under section 21a of the Terrorism Act 2000. He is believed to be the first person to be charged with the specific offence. The art dealer, who has also appeared on the BBC's Antiques Road Trip, was charged with failing to disclose information about transactions in the regulated art market sector on or before dates between October 2020 and December 2021. US prosecutors say Ahmad was a 'major Hezbollah financial donor' who used high-value art and diamonds to launder money and fund the group. Ahmad is accused of evading terrorism sanctions by using front companies to acquire more than $160m (£120m) in artwork and diamond services. After the introduction of new money-laundering regulations in January 2020 that brought the art market under HMRC supervision, Ojiri is said to have discussed the changes with a colleague, indicating awareness of the rules. The court previously heard the total value of the artworks sold was about £140,000. Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb sentenced Ojiri to two years and six months in prison at the Old Bailey on Friday, with a further year to be spent on licence.
