The sandwiches come with a cookie waffle with whipped Milky Way filling, which is currently on the shelves in Home Bargains for just 79 cents.
The delicious treats are made by Mars Inc. The confectioner is known for producing several iconic candies such as Mars bars, Snickers and Skittles.
Chocolate fans went crazy on Facebook after hearing the news and the post was viewed thousands of times in just 24 hours.
One user said: “Omg I love this.”
Another said: “Keep an eye on this one.”
“OH MY LIFE,” a third user shouted.
“I have to get this tomorrow!!” said someone else.
Rumors circulated on social media in 2022 that the popular chocolate bar had been discontinued.
Spokespeople for B&M and the Co-Op told the Sun they no longer stock these.
They are not available online from a number of supermarkets including Tesco and Sainsbury's.
A spokesperson for Mars Wrigley UK told The Sun in 2022: “Although Milky Way Crispy Rolls are currently in a galaxy far, far away, we're happy to offer many delicious alternatives such as Milky Way Magic Stars, Maltesers, Mars and of course, the traditional Milky Way.
“The love for Milky Way Crispy Rolls is out of this world and we definitely noticed!”
However, sightings of the fan favorite have been made in various stores such as Poundland and Home Bargains.
It's worth taking a look at the chocolate shops, but keep in mind that prices may vary from shop to shop.
Online confectioners still sell the chocolates in bulk and you can find them on Amazon.
You can buy a box of 24 bars for £24.99 on CandyMail.co.uk and the product is also listed on eBay, where you can buy a box of 12 bars for £12.49.
If you can't get enough chocolate, 'tis the season to find deals.
