A HUGE bargain store with hundreds of stores across the UK is selling an iconic Nestle chocolate that was discontinued.
Fans have been left overjoyed after the nostalgic chocolate bar made a rare appearance at the grocer.

The iconic chocolate was discontinued in November 2023 after dwindling customer demand and sales.
But it has since made sporadic appearances, including most recently at Herons Foods.
Shoppers can pick a pack of three from the bargain retailer for just £1.
One excited shopper said: “I love Caramac, it reminds me of my childhood and carefree diet.”
Another person said: “This is great news. Thought Caramac had been discontinued.”
A third shopper shared: “I bought a bunch when it was originally discontinued….then it came back.”
While a fourth fan wrote: “Heaven in a bar. Just wonderful.”
It comes after a rare Cadbury treat from New Zealand returned to B&M.
The store is known for stocking unusual treats from across the world, but this particular chocolate bar sent customers into meltdown.
Perky Nanas, usually only seen on the other side of the world, are now being sold at the discount store for just £1.
The soft banana-flavoured 45g chew bar comes covered with Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate.
A snap of the sweets were shared on Dansway Gifts and Bargains UK Facebook page and followers were thrilled.
One wrote: “Love them, I buy 10 at a time, chewy banana filling! They always sell out though hence why I get so much, I don’t like when people get greedy but other people are doing it, I’m not going to miss out.”
B&M also shared the new arrival to their Facebook page.
“LOVE LOVE LOVE – one of New Zealand’s finest exports!” wrote one follower.
The Perky Nana isn’t the first chocolate bar to have shoppers singing from the rafters in recent months.
The store has introduced an Aero Milky Bar – which combines bubbly Aero and white Milky Bar in one chocolate – for just £2.99.
The Facebook page Food Finds UK Official posted the news to their hungry fans in January, and the replies are already flowing.
One person commented: “This I need to buy.”
Another commenter wrote: “I need this.”
A third put it best, by simply stating: “Ooo.”
The chocolate bar is not widely available in the UK and is typically found in Australia.
How to save money on chocolate
WE all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don’t have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs…
Go own brand – if you’re not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you’ll save by going for the supermarket’s own brand bars.
Shop around – if you’ve spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it’s cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you’re getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers – supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they’ve been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars – most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you’ve got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
