'My favorite things' say Aldi shoppers rushing to buy counterfeit Cadbury item
ALDI shoppers are rushing to buy an “unreal” chocolate treat that tastes like a discontinued Cadbury snack.
The bargain discounter, with more than 1,000 UK stores, is known for its dupes which are usually much cheaper than branded versions.
And one in particular has had shoppers singing from the rooftops.
Customers are rushing to their nearest Aldi branch to buy Choceur Waves, a copy of Cadbury Snaps, which were discontinued earlier this month.
Post to the Extreme Coupons and Bargains UK Facebook Page One shopper shared a photo of the sweet treats they found in their local branch.
They captioned the post: “These cost £1.75 in Aldi, they are so nice.”
The post has racked up nearly 170 likes and dozens of comments from fans who love the supermarket dupe.
One said: “My favorite things, like a chocolate Pringle”, while another said: “I love them. They remind me of Cadbury snaps.”
A third commented: “I love the mint varieties of this,” and a fourth added: “Salted caramel ones are unreal.”
Anyone wanting to “get” one of the Choceur Waves can choose from four flavors – mint, orange, salted caramel and milk chocolate – all priced at £1.75.
But remember, you can't order them online as Aldi has stopped its home delivery service.
However, you should be able to find them in your nearest branch. You can find your nearest store using the retailer's store locator.
It comes after Aldi shoppers shouted: “I need these in my life” after spotting peanut butter and salted caramel Easter eggs.
Meanwhile, shoppers are rushing to their nearest Aldi branch to pick up fresh new flavors inspired by a takeaway favourite.
The German discounter sells Golden Wonder 'Chippie' chips in the deep-frying curry sauce and the flavors salt and vinegar.
One online shopper commented: “They're amazing – yesterday I polished off a pack of curry in one go.”
Meanwhile, a second added: “I got some from Asda not too long ago and they had loads of flavour.”
How to save money at Aldi
It's not just dupes that can save you money at your next Aldi store.
It's worth keeping an eye out for the retailer's red stickers on the products; the staff will add these if something has been reduced in price.
But it may catch some shoppers off guard, as most supermarket chains are putting yellow stickers on discounted items.
In the meantime, follow the advice of super saver Tom Church and shop at the German discounter on Wednesday at 10am.
This is the time when the staff restocks their regular items and you have the best selection of products to choose from.
Or you can buy one of the energy-saving gadgets from the discounter, so you don't have to turn on the heating.
