Coca-Cola has brought back an iconic campaign
3
'Share a Coke' was originally launched in 2013 and has returned with a new spin
3
Cans will have a wider range of names and be customisable this summer
One customer posted the nostalgic find on Instagram page New Food Spotter UK, with a video showing big 1.75l bottles of Coca-Cola going for £1.99 – that's 50p cheaper than the usual £2.49 retail price.
The same clip also showed 330ml cans selling for just 65p each.
Printed on the back of each can were popular names including Billie, Stephen, Louise, Henry and Charlie, bringing back memories of the original viral campaign.
First launched in 2013, the 'Share a Coke' bottles featured personalised names on the label, replacing the brand logo with names of friends and family.
Now, more than a decade later, they're back – and Coke has brought the campaign into 2025 with even more names and phrases to collect.
The return also includes nicknames and terms of endearment like 'My Bestie', 'My Bae', 'My Mate' and 'My Day One'.
Shoppers can even scan a QR code on packs to create their very own personalised virtual Coca-Cola can, thanks to a digital tool called Coke Memory Maker.
The feature lets users generate memes and videos with mates – all part of Coke's push to connect a new generation to one of its most iconic campaigns.
And while it's officially rolling out nationwide now, shoppers at Home Bargains are already bagging them.
As always with in-store stock, it can vary by location – so it's worth checking your nearest branch if you want to snap one up.
Coca Cola Christmas, over the years
When 'Share a Coke' was first rolled out in Australia, using the top names at the time, it quickly soared in popularity.
It then was rolled out to over 80 countries - and the re-launch will be another global campaign.
Earlier this week, Coca-Cola fans were raving over the company's version of one of the world's most recognisable drinks as it lands in UK stores for the first time.
Its Bacardi & Coca-Cola ready-to-drink beverage, which is a take on the famed Cuba Libre cocktail, is available now across major supermarkets.
Cuba Libres are usually made with Bacardi Rum, Coca-Cola, and lime, and the beverage maker hopes its pre-mixed drink will achieve the same taste as a freshly made cocktail.
The 250ml cans have an RRP of £2.30 and are 5% alcohol by volume (ABV).
The news comes after the drinks giant recently released pre-mixed 330ml cans of Jack Daniel's & Coca-Cola Cherry which available to purchase in Tesco.

Sophie Habboo opens up on husband Jamie's reaction after 'pregnant' comment
Sophie Habboo shared a hilarious story about the time she told Jamie Laing she might be pregnant and he 'went green', just months before she announced that she was expecting for the first time Sophie Habboo has revealed the moment Jamie Laing turned "green" after she teased him with a surprise baby revelation, months before the couple discovered they were actually expecting. The pair, who first met on Made In Chelsea before tying the knot two years ago, took to Instagram last Tuesday (June 3) to share the delightful news that they're expecting their first child, receiving a flood of well-wishes from fans and fellow celebs. In addition to their baby joy, the duo also announced a major change to their popular NewlyWeds podcast, which has now aptly been renamed NearlyParents as they gear up for the new adventure. However, casting her mind back to the time before the pregnancy was confirmed, Sophie recounted how Jamie was initially apprehensive about fatherhood. She reminisced about his pale-faced response during a meal out last year when she quipped about possibly being pregnant. On their revamped NearlyParents podcast, Jamie probed Sophie for a "totally honest" account of his reaction when she first expressed her desire for children. Sophie revealed: "You went green. You went green. In fact, we went for lunch with my sister and I said just as a joke, maybe I'm pregnant. I was like a day late on my period." She continued: "We were not trying at this point. We hadn't really discussed it, and Jamie left the restaurant and never came back." Trying to shed light on his past reaction, he admitted feeling "panicked" about becoming a dad, recalling the episode as: "I was having a mild panic. This was like last year and that was a bit... Honey, it was scary for me at that point." He also expressed the fears many feel on the brink of parenthood: "You don't understand how scary it is when you're like going into this world of having, or even thinking about having kids." Yet, speaking of his change of heart, he's now eager to embrace fatherhood, eagerly anticipating the arrival of their first child in the upcoming months. As for Sophie, she reminisced over the shock of learning she was expecting, after doing a pregnancy test back in December. Jamie meanwhile, shared his overwhelming joy upon her announcing the pregnancy, comparing the elation to their wedding day, stating he felt like he was "floating" when she delivered the wonderful news.

All about Megan Moore and when she is joining Love Island 2025
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MEGAN Moore was supposed to be a Love Island bombshell in 2024, but decided to pull out and never graced our screens. But that is all set to change for this year's summer series, so here's everything you need to know about Meg. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Meg Moore is a new Love Island star Credit: Shutterstock 3 Meg's looking for a man who is tall and tanned, with nice eyes and a nice smile Credit: Instagram 3 She's ready to bring the drama if anyone tries to steal her man Credit: Instagram Who is Megan Moore? Megan Moore, a payroll specialist from Southampton who also goes by Meg, is set to star in Love Island 2025. The 25-year-old was going to be in the cast of last year's instalment of the steamy show as a bombshell, but passed the opportunity up after watching the series and realising that "no one was my type". She was approached again to be in the original line-up for 2025, and thought "what have I got to lose?" Meg explained: "I was in a WhatsApp group that was to keep me updated on the show. "I'd tell them who I fancied and would my top three be. "It just got to the point where I felt like I wouldn't really have fitted in or that I would really get on with that person. "They always kept me in the loop and then it just all happened really quickly and I didn't really think about it, I was still living my normal life. "So then obviously it came around again this year, and they said, 'Meg, would you go for it again?' "I said, 'Well, nothing's changed, I've been on no dates, I'm still single, so what have I got to lose?'" Meg is looking for a man who is tall and tanned, with nice eyes and a nice smile. Love rats & machete arrests: Love Island's most DRAMATIC launch ever?! She said her biggest ick is men in flip-flops and bad hygiene. Meg added: "He needs to have a good fashion sense and a really good, funny personality that I can get on with." She's also prepared to bring the drama if someone tries to move in on her man. "I'll probably be in the thick of the drama. I don't cause it, it just comes to me, so... "But at the same time, if you're going to try and steal my man, you're going to get the drama." When is Megan Moore joining Love Island 2025? Meg is a contestant on the show's 12th season, which premiers at 9pm on Monday, June 9, 2025. She is one of the initial batch of Islanders entering the famous villa at the very start of the series, rather than joining cast as a bombshell — as she nearly did in 2024.
