Major discounter flogging Cadbury Flake bars for less than 1p each with chocolate lovers racing to fill their trolleys
A MAJOR discount retailer is handing away Cadbury Flake bars for less than 1p each.
Chocoholics are racing to nab the delicious goodies heavily slashed in price – perfect in time for Easter.
Bargain hunters were rushing to fill their baskets after discovering boxes of 42 Flakes were being flogged for just 30p.
The steal of a deal is currently running at budget shop Discount Dragon, and was shared on Facebook in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Group.
Shoppers are allowed a maximum of three boxes per order and each box comes with 14 bars.
You must also spend a minimum of £25 online.
The post read: “42 Cadbury Flakes For ONLY 30p At Discount Dragon.
“There is a minimum spend of £25 online, but delivery is free.
“There’s also lots of other discounted products available.”
A single box of “the crumbliest, flakiest milk chocolate” scans for only 10p, making it £2.15 cheaper than the retail price of £2.25.
The chocolate treats are “ideal for ice cream, hot chocolate and the decoration of desserts and cakes”, penned the seller.
Meanwhile, another savvy bargain hunter found boxes of Flakes containing a whopping 144 bars – for just £6.99.
The eagle-eyed shopper shared his discovery on a similar Facebook group.
Referring to the packaging on the box which said: “For ice cream and culinary use” one person jokingly posted: “Rude to assume they put for ice cream use, I could single handily eat 144 flakes.”
Another chocolate lover added: “More the merrier, any decent person can manoeuvre their way through a box of those within a time scale of less than half an hour. Best chocolate treat ever created by far.”
And, a third agreed: “I could demolish this box easy!”
Meanwhile, Asda, Morrisons and Tesco are all selling a multipack of four flakes for £1.65, according to Trolley.co.uk.
Sainsbury’s is also matching that with its Nectar price, otherwise it is 20p more expensive.
The supermarket giant is also selling a single, seemingly larger, Cadbury flake for 75p.
It comes as shoppers are also desperate to bag a classic chocolate which has been slashed in price.
The iconic Cadbury Milk Tray is on a special deal at a major supermarket – but it won’t be around for long.
Plus, Aldi is currently offering the cheapest selection of Cadbury creme eggs, which are priced at £2.25 for a 200g box.
And, choccy fans have been left “dribbling at the mouth” after a Tesco discounted the price of the UK’s second favourite chocolate.
The Galaxy Smooth Milk bar has had its cost halved in stores – grab them while you can.
Elsewhere, fans were excited after Nestle launched a brand-new chocolate just ahead of Easter.
The new treat, called the Nestle Aero share-a-bubble, comes in a choco hazelnut flavour – and shoppers claim it tastes just like Nutella.
