Chocolate lovers rave as Cadbury slashes Easter egg prices to as little as 65p with up to 80% off sale
CADBURY has slashed the price of its Easter eggs to as little as 65p in a huge sale.
Discounts as large as 80 per cent off have excited chocolate lovers across the UK who are now rushing to snap up the incredible deal.
The discounts were spotted by a keen-eyed shopper and shared on Facebook.
Across Cadbury's online store, Easter eggs have been heavily discounted, just two weeks after Easter Sunday celebrations.
Attracting the biggest saving is Cadbury's 195g Creme Egg Chocolate Easter Egg, which has been reduced by a whopping 80 per cent.
Instead of its usual £7.49 price tag, shoppers can nab it for the steal of a price of just £1.49.
A number of delicious treats have earned a similarly hefty price cut of 73 per cent, including Cadbury's Easter eggs in flavours such as Caramilk, Orange Twirl, and Wispa.
While these luxurious snacks, which weigh just under 200g, will typically set you back £7.99, they are now selling for the bargain price of just £1.99.
Also earning a good discount are Cadbury's White Chocolate individual Creme Eggs, which now cost just 65p.
If you're feeling like stocking up on Easter egg supplies, you can also get your hands on one of the larger discounted packs.
Cadbury has reduced the price of its 12-pack Caramel Egg and Creme Egg bundle by a tasty 43 per cent.
Instead of the usual £105.48, shoppers only need to pay £60 to grab the dozen treats.
On top of this, Cadbury's Minis Mix Chocolate Eggs Bag, which contains 12 packets, each weighing 238g, has seen its price slashed.
The 63 per cent saving sees its price reduced from £80.28 to a staggering £29.88 for nearly 3kg of chocolate.
This comes just days after chocolate fans spotted a discontinued Cadbury treat, among other slashed-price Easter chocolates, at a Sainsbury's store.
The bargain bonanza was spotted at one of the supermarket's outlets in Hereford, where treats including the Cadbury Daim Mini Eggs were scanning for as little as 18p.
The Easter treat has returned after the Christmas version, Dairy Milk Robins was discontinued, leaving shoppers at the time gutted.
Other treats included the Kinder Mini Eggs which were available for 15p, as well as 5 pack of Creme Eggs selling for 40p.
SHOPPERS are scrambling to get to a major supermarket as boxes of chocolates have been slashed.
So if your purse is feeling tighter than ever before and you're on a mission to cut costs where possible, we've found just the thing.
And you've got a sweet tooth and fancy stocking your cupboards with tasty snacks, then you'll need to check this out.
One chocolate fan was left open-mouthed when browsing in her local supermarket, when she noticed that boxes of Celebrations had been massively reduced.
Thrilled with her find, which Cathy Pennington spotted in a Tesco store in Altrincham, the bargain hunter took to social media to alert others, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on BARGAIN LOVERS Poundland, Home Bargains, B&M, Primark, The Range & More, a public Facebook group with 805,900 members, Cathy shared a snap of the cheap treats, which many of us can't get enough of during the festive season.
Alongside her post, she simply beamed: ' Tesco £1.50.'
The 300g variety boxes of chocolates were once priced at £5.35, but have since been slashed down to only £1.50.
In this large box, you'll find all of the iconic favourites - Snickers, Twix, Mars, Malteasers, Milky Way, Bounty, Galaxy, and Galaxy Caramel.
The milk chocolate treats are still marked at £5.35 online, but if you fancy saving £3.85, then you'll need to move fast.
One eagle-eyed shopper took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group to share the haul.
They posted: 'In my local Sainsbury's – Creme Eggs 5 pack, 40p. Kinder Mini Eggs, 15p. Daim Mini Eggs, 18p. (Hertford). Still lots left.'
The post sent social media into meltdown, with choc lovers tagging mates and planning their next supermarket dash.
One replied: 'Omg 40p creme eggs xxxxx.'
Another said: 'Get to Sainsbury's lol.'
A third added: 'Loads of eggs in my nearest one.'

Sainsbury's set to revolutionise supermarkets with major in-store change
Sainsbury's set to revolutionise supermarkets with major in-store change The supermarket are trialling the use of new digital features in stores Sainsbury's are testing whether the change will improve customer experience (Image: Getty ) Sainsbury's has joined the growing list of UK supermarkets trialling electronic shelf-edge labels (ESLs) in a bid to modernise its stores and boost efficiency. The supermarket giant began quietly testing the digital pricing technology in three of its larger-format stores late last year, including its 'Future Store' in Oxfordshire, which underwent a refit in November 2023. The move is part of a wider supermarket trend towards ESLs as a means to streamline pricing, cut labour costs, and improve accuracy on the shop floor. Speaking to The Grocer, a Sainsbury's spokeswoman said: "We are trialling electronic shelf-edge labels in a small number of our stores." However, the supermarket declined to provide further details on the pilot, which is being closely monitored for both customer experience and back-end efficiency gains. Industry insiders have revealed that Sainsbury's is testing ESLs across a range of product departments, including beers, wines & spirits, health and general merchandise. The trials are reportedly assessing both the hardware used to display prices and the potential labour savings that could be achieved through automating price displays, reports the Express. Article continues below The new technology should minimise pricing errors (Image: Getty ) Fixtures specialist Harrison Retail collaborated with Sainsbury's to develop the bespoke shelf fixings needed to support the devices. For money-saving tips, sign up to our Money newsletter here . The ESL technology itself is believed to be supplied by multiple providers, though neither Sainsbury's nor Harrison Retail shared specific details about the tech partners involved. This new way of labelling is becoming increasingly popular in the retail sector due to their ability to update pricing in real time, allowing supermarkets to swiftly respond to market changes, minimise pricing errors, and manage promotions more effectively. Sainsbury's Witney store has been leading the supermarket's trial. As part of Sainsbury's ongoing programme to modernise store operations and improve customer experience using digital tools, the supermarket has been investing in its 'Future Store' programme. Article continues below While it is still uncertain whether Sainsbury's will implement ESLs across its entire estate, these trials reflect a growing trend among UK supermarkets to digitise shelf-edge pricing. Tesco, Morrisons, and Co-op are also known to have conducted similar tests. For the time being, customers in selected stores may notice the sleek new screens slowing replacing traditional paper tags.

All the retailers hit by recent cyber attacks as two more become latest victims
Marks and Spencers was the first company to get hit back at Easter weekend and now more brands are joining the list. Cyber attacks have taken yet another hit at high-profile retailers as two more well-known brands have become the latest victims to this online crime. Luxury jeweller Cartier and fashion brand North Face have become the latest victims of cyber criminal reign. It has been reported that both Cartier and North Face have revealed that customer data was breached - including email addresses and names. However, the firms did also emphasise that no financial information was taken. The cases of malware hacks has been increasing over the past few months since Marks and Spencers was attacked back in April. As a result, the company had to temporarily shut down their online shopping, which is still yet to reopen more than a month after the attack. This was followed by Co-op being hacked and having to cancel their delivery service. Adidas, Victoria's Secret and Harrods have also joined the list of notable brands that have been victims of cyber criminals. North Face sent an email out to their customers recently informing them that it discovered a "small-scale" attack back in April this year. It went on to say that the hackers targeted the company by using a technique called "credential stuffing", which is when crooks try to use usernames and passwords from another data breach in hopes that customers have reused the same password. It was also noted that some of the hackers may have been able to get access to some shoppers' shipping addresses and purchase history. Those who were affected have been urged to change their passwords. Luxury brand Cartier also sent out an email which informed shoppers that "an unauthorized party gained temporary access to our system" and that the crooks "obtained limited client information". They also said that no passwords or card details were accessed. The firm added: "We contained the issue and have further enhanced the protection of our systems and data." James Hadley, founder of cyber-security company Immersive, has said that cyber attacks are the "harsh reality" of the retail industry. As luxury and high street brands are "overflowing with customer information", he says they are becoming more of an "easy target" for cyber crooks. M&S has still yet to recover properly from the attack in April, with owners saying that their online services are likely to be disrupted until July. Additionally, the company had estimated that this inconvenience will end up costing the company £300million. Within the breach, hackers managed to gain access to a variety of customer personal data, including names, email addresses, postal addresses and dates of birth. Since the incident, Scottish law firm Thompsons Solicitors have filed a multi-million pound class action suit against the company. This was followed by the Co-op and Harrods being forced to shut down their IT systems and restrict their internet access to try and ward off further attacks. On May 2, a Co-op spokesperson revealed ongoing "sustained malicious attempts by hackers to access" their systems. It also said it was "a highly complex situation" following reports that the same cybercriminals had taken responsibility for both breaches. At the same time, Harrods restricted access to their sites following an attempt to gain access to their systems. However, the company was able to keep its stores open and continue their online sales. At the time, a statement from Harrods said: "We recently experienced attempts to gain unauthorised access to some of our systems. "Our seasoned IT security team immediately took proactive steps to keep systems safe and as a result we have restricted internet access at our sites today. "Currently all sites including our Knightsbridge store, H beauty stores and airport stores remain open to welcome customers.

Later on in May, sportswear brand Adidas also disclosed that hackers had been able to steal customers' personal information, which "mainly consisted" of the contact information of people who had been in touch with the help desk. Again, the brand said that passwords and card details, along with other payment data, had not been compromised. On its website, Adidas said: "We remain fully committed to protecting the privacy and security of our consumers, and sincerely regret any inconvenience or concern caused by this incident." Lingerie firm Victoria's Secret was also a victim of a cyber attack, which saw them take down their US website and replace it with a customer notice saying: "Working around the clock to fully restore operations". Some in-store services were also taken down at the time. However, the company's UK website seemed to be unaffected.

Tesco shopper fury as supermarket axes dinner staple from shelves
We reveal what other notable products have been discontinued below OUT OF STOCK OUT OF STOCK Tesco shopper fury as supermarket axes dinner staple from shelves Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TESCO will no doubt have sparked shopper fury after axing a dinner staple from shelves. The UK's biggest supermarket has discontinued the BBQ essential and own-brand line. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Tesco has discontinued its own-brand eight packs of beef sausages Credit: Tesco Tesco eight packs of beef sausages are no more after it is understood the supermarket stopped stocking them. The meaty item is also showing as "currently out of stock" on the chain's website. Customers can still buy six packs of Tesco Finest Aberdeen Angus Beef Sausages for £3 and four packs of Tesco Finest Pork and Beef smoked sausages for £4. Retailers often discontinue products to make way for newer items on shelves and based on sales and customer demand. Tesco recently confirmed it axed popular southern fried chicken flavour instant noodles, for example. The pack costed around 50p and was available in store and online, but was dropped and replaced with another chicken flavour shoppers could buy. Tesco also recently cut its own-brand tomato and basil soup from its chilled range. The retailer confirmed it had made the change because it adjusts its soup range across the year to reflect seasonal demand. Tesco shoppers were also shocked to find the supermarket no longer stocks six-pint cartons of milk. OTHER DISCONTINUED PRODUCTS The Sun exclusively revealed last month Cadbury's has axed Fry's Coffee Cream after first launching it in 2023. Weetabix discontinues popular cereal flavour Cadbury didn't say when the Fry's Coffee Cream multi-packs were discontinued - just that they were available while stocks lasted. Carlsberg Britvic has also axed Tango Dark Berry Sugar Free after customers reported struggling to find it on shelves. A spokesperson for the drinks maker said it stopped making the fizzy drink earlier this year. Meanwhile, Sainsbury's recently confirmed it had discontinued its Patisserie Valerie cake slices from branches. Aldi also axed its popular Deli smoke pork sausages across 100 stores leaving shoppers devastated. Lidl dropped beloved fridge essential Dairy Manor lactose-free skimmed milk from shelves recently too. Sainsbury's has also axed popular own-brand Meat Free Steaks to customer frustration. Baked goods giant Greggs recently caused a stir after dropping ham salad baguettes from menus, as exclusively revealed by The Sun. The lunch item was axed in favour of other fresh baguettes, despite its popularity among hungry shoppers. Why are products axed or recipes changed? ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders. Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether. They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers. There are several reasons why this could be done. For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes. Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs. They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable. For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018. It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version. Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year. Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks. While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose. Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?
