There are less than 12 weeks until Christmas and supermarkets are going head to head in a bid to be the cheapest to bag everything you need for the big day, from toy sales to price cuts on essentials. Big shiny offers and discounts may make you feel as though you're getting the best price, but that's not always the case.
We know if might be difficult not to raid the tin of Toffee Pennies or Malteaser choccies before the festive season truly kicks in - marked with the start of Manchester Christmas Markets, no less. But it could pay off to bag them early to get the best price - if you know where to shop. Tesco Tesco have ditched their popular Clubcard deal on festive chocolate boxes which previously saw selected tubs reduced from £4 each, to two for £7 with a loyalty card. Their 600g boxes of Quality Street, Heroes and Roses, as well as 650g boxes of Celebrations, are back to their original price of £4 with no multibuy offer.
All of the other prices and deals remained much the same, though, with Heroes costing £10 for a 900g tub for £10, or £5 for a 600g tub, which is half the price for a two thirds of the contents. Those with smaller families may want to get the 382g or 220g pots, but these are priced at £3.50 and £3 respectively, totalling 98p and £1.04 per 100g.
Ocado Ocado have extended their deal on a giant box of Heroes, which sees a whopping 2kg box slashed from £23 to £16.50. The huge box of confectionery works out at 82.5p per 100g, which is cheaper than their 600g boxes, which are £5 and equal around 83.3p per 100g. Last week, the 290g boxes of Roses and Heroes were £4 each or two for £6. Instead, they’re now £3 with no multi-buy deal, which means you don’t have to bulk buy if you just wanted the one box.Most expensive deal at Ocado: 800g tin of Roses for £12
A 600g box of Heroes is the same price as Quality Street, as is the 600g of Roses and 650g of Celebrations. Options with prices somewhere in the middle sees 357g of Heroes cost £3.50 with a 75p cash reward on the app, which matches the price of 382g of Quality Street. Last week 380g of Celebrations, costing £3, would also earn you 75p back on the app. This deal has since been swapped to apply to the smaller, yet more expensive 370g tin, which is £3.50. With the cashback, you could consider these to be £2.75, though.
