With Halloween and Christmas just around the corner, many smart shoppers are looking for ways to save on their festive and spooky chocolates. Luckily, we’ve found a sweet deal on Amazon Prime’s Big Deal Day that’s just too good to pass up.
Amazon has cut the price of its 2.4kg Celebrations Milk Chocolates Gift Bulk Box until 11:59 tonight (October 9) with customers able to enjoy a 25% discount on the massive 2.4kg box.
The Celebrations Milk Chocolates Gift Bulk Box usually retails for £28, but it can be snapped up for just £21, providing a substantial saving of £7, the M.E.N reports.
The gift box includes all of the favourite Mars chocolates including Maltesers, Galaxy, Galaxy Caramel, Milky Way, and of course, the ever-debated Bounty bar.
This sharing box contains four times more chocolate than the traditional tubs you find in supermarkets. It also turns out to be cheaper than Asda, Sainsbury’s, Iceland and Morrisons, where a 550g tub costs £6 – equating to £1.09 per 100g.
However, with the price reduced to £21 on Amazon, this mega box works out at 86p per 100g, making it cheaper and more efficient as it also comes with the advantage of free next-day delivery for Prime customers.
Whether you plan to distribute it at Halloween or save it for Christmas, this box is cheaper than current high street offerings. The Celebrations chocolate box, stocked with bulk confectionery, has garnered over 18,000 top-notch five-star ratings on Amazon from customers and is currently riding high as one of the marketplace’s bestsellers.

Shoppers have declared it ‘well worth the money’ and predict the stash could stretch beyond a month, that is, if one can exercise enough self-discipline.
One enthused customer confessed: “Bought for Christmas to divide up between people. Suffice to say I now need to repurchase as they’re all gone. Brilliant big box of chocolates, but absolutely fatal to open and just have one.”
Another happy buyer commented: “Bought for gathering during Christmas, turned out well lots of treats inside and good value for the price paid for these chocolates. Could see this being useful during larger events too for filling bowls/goodie bags and of the sort or even just for Christmas dinner.”
Yet another chimed in: “You get great value for your money with this box of Celebrations. It took me three weeks to finish. It’s much better value than buying the plastic tins that shrink every year that you get from the supermarket.”
A fourth added: “I brought this for Christmas and it was perfect and lasted me a whole month. Would buy again.”
Nonetheless, some buyers were not entirely impressed by the less traditional packaging. A particular critique cited: “The new packaging looks nice but I don’t like how it opens that’s the only reason I gave it three stars apart from that everything is great.”
For Cadbury chocolate lovers, the massive 2kg Cadbury Heroes Chocolate Bulk Sharing Box, typically priced at £25, is also currently available for £20.89 on Amazon.
Over at John Lewis, the Everything Sleekster Box from Hotel Chocolat is retailing at £29.95. However, if you’re interested in the Celebrations Milk Chocolates Gift Bulk Box, it’s available on Amazon for a discounted price of £21, down from its usual £28.
