Exciting new chocolates that have been spotted on shop shelves
Just this week shoppers spotted the Cadbury Dairy Milk Slices Shortcake Biscuit chocolate bar in B&M stores, despite the bar usually only being available in Australia.
Other recent Aussie finds have included a raspberry smash flavour Mars Bar and a Peppermint Dairy Milk bar.
A Honeycomb Sunday Swirl Twirl also hit shelves in early March, gaining tons of traction online.
And a healthy Pinky Chocolate bar, also only typically available in Australia, was snatched up by UK punters in July last year.
Other international treats which have hit B&M shelves include chocolate from India and Brazil.
To find out which exclusive chocolates are hitting B&M, it helps to join local Facebook Groups, or snack-hunting ones like Food Finds UK.
This way you can be the first to get the news when brand new items appear.
You can find out where your nearest store is located by using the Store Finder tool on B&M's website.
If you can't find it in your local store, bear in mind that stocks may not be the same everywhere, so ask a member of staff or call ahead.
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.

Tesco's £339 ‘anti-ageing' gift set is slashed to just £49 – it's lightweight, brightens complexion & only takes 2 drops
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TESCO has slashed the price of an incredible "anti-ageing" gift set by nearly £300. Originally costing £339, the set is now on sale at the supermarket for just £49. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Tesco have slashed the price of a popular skincare product Credit: Alamy 3 The Dr H set is now on sale at Tesco Tesco is selling the highly coveted Dr H vitamin C anti-ageing night skincare deluxe gift set. Featuring a facial serum, a cleansing soap and a night moisturiser, it's designed to both hydrate and cleanse your skin. The product includes Aloe Barbadensis leaf extract and sodium ascorbyl phosphate - which is said to 'brighten your complexion'. The Dr H set also contains extracts of green tea and tiare flower. However, shoppers won't be able to buy the set in-stores. Instead, customers will need to log onto Tesco's marketplace and order the product online. The set qualifies for free standard delivery, though faster options are available for an additional fee. The news comes after Tesco announced that it was considering axing a huge shopping feature in all of its stores. The supermarket said that it was planning to remove barcodes from its products, in a bid to make shopping easier for its customers. Barcodes would be replaced by QR codes, which are easier to scan and will enable shoppers to see additional information about the item. Tesco fans are set to love the latest items in stores for 25 per cent off when you use clubcard Around 20 per cent of Tesco's South Eastern stores will be included in the trial. Ahead of the trial, Isabela De Pedro, supply chain development and change director for Tesco, said: "It's certainly our intention to make sure the customers better understand the product. "You've got a real limit on the current packaging and there are so many regulatory things you have to put on there, that gets priority. "The QR opens up the door to do all of this stuff…to talk about origin, nutritionals, health, alternatives, locally sourced stuff."
