A customer scanned the Peppa Pig My Favourite Days Plush at Sainsbury's, found to be priced at just 1p.
They shared the find on Facebook's Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, and thanked iconic supermarket for the item.
She said: "Going in my loft till Xmas for my little granddaughter!!!
"There was no shelf ticket but I was using the self-scan gun!!"
More than 150 members on the group reacted to the post.
One respondent wrote: "Great find."
Another added: "Well done for finding this, nice to see the odd penny item can still be found.
"I have seen 5 different items scanning for 1p in the group this week."
The same toy, with Peppa in her Snowy Days outfit wearing a furry purple winter coat, woolly hat and matching boots, is also for sale at other toy stores for much more.
At Hamleys and Toys4you, it is on sale for £9.99 at both stores, making the Sainsbury's version a significant bargain.
Tesco and Sainsbury's 'secret codes' revealed
The plush toy is part of a collection of three of the loved character "in a cute outfit, all dressed up and ready to do her favourite things".
There is also one of the pig dressed in a unicorn dress getting ready for a day of reading and playing with her magical unicorn.
Another one has Peppa in a Rainy Days outfit, with a red waterproof coat and boots "ready to splash in muddy puddles".
A number of other toys have also been spotted on sale at Sainsbury's for just 1p.
One mum showed the whopping collection she had got her hands on from the supermarket.
This included Ninja Turtle plush toys for £2 and Star Wars figures for 1p as part of her Christmas shopping.
Another bargain hunter managed to snap up a Vtech Marble Rush Super Sky Tower set for just £20 at Sainsbury's as a Christmas present for her children.
This proved quite the bargain, when Argos was selling the same product for £80.
