Cadbury Freddo chocolate bars on sale at Sainsbury's for 10p

Cadbury is responsible for a range of chocolates including Boost, Crunchie, the classic Dairy Milk as well as Easter favourites Creme Eggs. 

Arguably one of the most popular chocolates in its range is Freddos.

The price of Freddo chocolate bars always used to be 10p.

But over the years, due to inflation, the prices of Freddo chocolate have begun to increase. 

The price of a Freddo in 2024 is 25p, but it has been as high as 36p in the past.

But now, as part of celebrations for 200 years of Cadbury, Sainsbury's has dropped the price of Freddos back to the "prehistoric price" of 10p, down from 25p.

However, there is a catch. To claim the 10p Freddo offer you must be a Nectar member.

If you aren't already a Nectar member, all you have to do is sign up online - which can be done via the website here.

You'll also have to be quick as the 10p Freddo offer for Nectar members will only run from April 17 to April 23.

Last time you could get a Freddo for 10p was in 2005.
