In one video on TikTokthey shared a look at the red machine, which had “Chocolates” written on the top and two slots for one-cent pieces.
They also used to contain mini bars containing Cadbury chocolate and were hugely popular as gifts at Christmas.
In the clip, a woman was shown throwing a coin in, before pulling out one of the bars and holding it up in delight.
“Your childhood memory unlocked,” they wrote in the caption.
“Hands up, who had one of those!”
The comments section was immediately filled with people contributing, with one writing: “Please make them again!
“I loved mine in the 90s!”
“BRING IT BACK PLEASE,” another added.
“The best toys. These need to be returned,” a third commented.
“OMG please tell me you’re going to bring this back, this was my favorite,” someone else wrote.
“Bring them back.” another begged.
“Hell yeah,” someone else wrote.
“I loved mine because I threw this back.
“I felt great putting 2 cents into getting my chocolate the way I put it there in the first place.”
“Why did you stop producing it?” another added.
‘Best chocolate ever. My grandmother bought me a package every Christmas.
How to Save Money on Christmas Shopping
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to save money on your Christmas shopping.
Limit the number of presents – buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb.
Instead, why not host a Secret Santa among your inner circles so you don’t have to buy multiple presents?
Plan ahead – if you have the stamina and the budget, it’s worth buying your Christmas presents for next year during the January sales.
Make sure you shop for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you don’t spend more than you need to.
Buy on sale on Boxing Day – some retailers are starting their Christmas sales early so you can actually score a bargain before December 25th.
Delivery may cost you a little more, but it could be worth it if the savings are significant.
Shop through outlet stores – you can save a lot of money by shopping through outlet stores such as Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts.
They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually the wear and tear is minor.
“I would like it if you brought them back.”
Others admitted they were always desperate to get their hands on one of the machines before Christmas.
“I’ve asked for one almost every year, but I never got one,” one person sighed.
“And now I can’t get one as an adult, what’s that about?”
“I begged, I got one, my mum ate all the chocolate from it before Christmas so it was useless,” another added.
“I wanted one so bad. I know it’s a gimmick but…” someone else laughed.
And trying to get one of the machines now is a costly affair.
Because they sell for over £27 on auction sites like eBay.
Some of them even reach that price with pieces missing, which shows how much people want them.
Furthermore, although you can buy the chocolates that come in on other websites, they are not from Cadbury as they no longer make them.
