UK supermarket cuts price of Quality Street, Celebrations, Heroes and Roses to just £2

A major UK supermarket has cut the price of a host of chocolates ahead of Christmas. Morrisons is offering Celebrations, Quality Street Heroes and Roses for just £2 to loyalty card holders.

But there's a catch, as shoppers can only enjoy the offer when they spend £45 or more in-store. The deal is available from Friday, November 15 to Thursday, November 21 nationwide.

And you won't be able to stock up as only one tub will be allowed per customer. Tins of chocolates are a staple in many households over the festive season after first being launched decades ago.

POLL: Will you be visiting the German Market this year?

Cadbury and Rowntree were among the first companies to create chocolate boxes in decorative tins, which became popular for gifting from the early 20th century. The tins often featured ornate designs, portraying British culture, landscapes, or even famous artwork.

They were luxurious items, often reused long after the chocolates were finished, WalesOnline reports. Quality Street launched in 1936 and was the first widely popular chocolate assortment in a tin which has since become a plastic tub.

Sustainability concerns have pushed some brands to return to metal tins or more environmentally friendly packaging.

Brumwish 2024 - buy a gift for a child in need

BrumWish 2024 is Birmingham Live's festive drive to get thousands of gifts to children and young people across our city - among them the homeless, the vulnerable, kids in care, kids who are poorly or struggling, and kids who have little.

There are THREE simple ways to help.

1. Buy a new gift from the Brumwish 2024 Amazon giftlist. In just a click your donation will be whizzing its way to our volunteers at Edgbaston Stadium.
2. Donate money to the appeal fund hosted by Thrive Together Birmingham - this will help pay for gifts for kids with specialist needs or specific wishes.
3. Buy a gift and, even better, rope in friends, neighbours and workmates to do the same, then drop off your pressies at Edgbaston Stadium, Edgbaston Road, B5 7QU on Friday 6th December, 10am - 3pm; Saturday 7th December, 10am - 1pm; or Monday 9th December, 10am - 1pm. Volunteers will be there to help you. Please don't wrap your gifts. You can also drop off by arrangement until Monday 16th December - contact Louise on 07469 979286.

Thanks to our partnership with #Toys4Birmingham, every single gift will find a good home in the loving care of a child living in B&Bs or hotels, hostels or refuges, children receiving support from specialist organisations and charities, and families being supported by children's centres and charities around the city.

Making up the Brumwish and Toys4Birmingham gang are Thrive Together Birmingham, Birmingham Playcare Network, Warwickshire Cricket Foundation (the charitable arm of Warwickshire County Cricket Club), Birmingham Forward Steps and BirminghamLive/Birmingham Mail.

Thank you to Amazon UK and the amazing team at the Sutton Coldfield depot for their support.
