Shoppers say supermarket has 'lost its mind' over £80 Father's Day gift
Father's Day is fast approaching and many people will be snapping up last-minute gifts for their dad or father figure. The supermarkets have all the usual items on offer, from beer sets to best dad mugs, but there's one product that's causing a bit of a stir with shoppers. Morrisons has launched a limited-edition Toblerone bar that weighs a whopping 4.5kg and is more than 12 times the size of the regular chocolate treat. But it's not the size that has people raising their eyebrows, it's the price as the bar, which is bigger and heavier than a newborn baby, costs £80 (£60 with a Morrisons More Card). A shot of the massive Toblerone was shared on social media in the Food Finds UK Official group where people were baffled as to why anyone would ever need that much chocolate. Teddy Lowki branded it 'senseless', writing: 'Question is, does anyone really need this chocolate bar? Parting with over £50 for chocolate, I don't see the logic. Even if it was a Christmas promotion, it's just senseless.' And Giulia Viglianisi said: 'They lost their minds' as Ranae Quinn posted: 'Not a chance, doubt anyone likes their dad that much.' Diana Brown also wasn't keen, sharing: 'Love Morrisons, love Toblerone, but would never buy one that big and for that amount of money.' 'No way would I pay that,' exclaimed Jenny Cornwell, as Ian Crist asked: 'How much?!!!' 'Ridiculous price for some chocolate,' agreed Paul Smith and Mark O'Donohoe added: 'How do you justify this to yourself £60 for a chocolate bar? That's a whole shop with other treats in that shop.' Others asked if it was a 'joke' and wondered how on earth anyone would break into a chocolate bar that size. Not everyone was opposed to the product though with some being fans of it. Scott Bishop revealed he'd had one last year, as Steve Clark posted: 'More reasons to shop at Morrisons.' Kimberley Ackew admitted the chocolate bar was her 'dream', as Bex Brown claimed people were buying them, as they'd all sold out in her local store. Katy Bailey was also a fan, sharing: 'My hubby bought me one a few years back, it took us months to eat, had to use a sharp knife to segment it, it was awesome.' According to Morrisons, the Swiss milk chocolate bar is £19.99 cheaper with a More Card than it is at alternative retailers such as Amazon, where it costs £79.99. Morrisons is going hard on supersizing things for Father's Day. As well as the giant Toblerone, the retailer is also selling a Footlong sausage roll for Father's Day and both of these are available in stores until June 15. More Trending And in Morrisons Cafés nationwide, dads (and anyone who fancies it) can also tuck into a ginormous breakfast feast, as the 'Big Daddy' is back. The 23-piece fry-up is £10 and features four bacon rashers, four sausages, four crispy hash browns, three slices of black pudding, three fried eggs, baked beans, sliced mushrooms and not one, or two but three slices of bread with butter. For Morrisons Scottish customers, the four sausages and four hash browns are replaced with four Lorne sausages and four traditional potato scones. View More » Chris Strong, senior café trading manager at Morrisons, said: 'Back by popular demand, our Big Daddy Breakfast is bigger and better! It's for the hungriest of dads and father figures that do us proud. We've created the Big Daddy Breakfast to be bold, satisfying, and full of classic favourites, all at a price that's hard to beat.'

Cheapest supermarket selling massive Toblerone bars for just £3 revealed as shoppers grab them for Father's Day
MORRISONS has the lowest price for a big Toblerone bar just in time for Father's Day. The major supermarket has slashed the price of the 360g block of chocolate in multiple flavours by 50 percent. 2 The £3 price tag for the tasty Swiss bar is available to those with a Morrisons' member card. This price is cheaper than the next lowest of £4.75 which is available at Tesco for Clubcard holders only. Otherwise the 40 gram bar of Milk Chocolate Toblerone and other flavours is currently listed for £6 at Tesco, Sainsbury' s and Ocado. The price drop comes days after Morrisons restocked the gigantic Toblerone bar which weighs 4.5kg and is more than 12 times bigger. The limited-edition bar is in stores now and will be until Sunday June 15, 2025 making it the perfect present for Father's day. While the bar weighs in at a hefty weight, so does the price, with the bar on offer at £60 for customers with a More Card. However, those without a More Card will have to pay the full price of £80. The chocolate bar is only available in store at Morrisons but is also currently sold on Amazon for £69.99. Along with the Toblerone deals, savvy shoppers noted how Morrisons is also offering a great price of Terry's Chocolate Orange. The major supermarket slashed the price of the beloved chocolate favourite and shoppers can choose from two different flavours. What is loyalty pricing? You may have heard of loyalty pricing, but do you know what it is? Sainsbury's, Tesco and Morrisons are three supermarkets that offer customers signed up to their loyalty schemes exclusive discounts - known as loyalty pricing. All three retailer's schemes, Nectar Card, Clubcard and More Card, are free to sign up to as well. The obvious advantage to loyalty pricing is that you can save potentially hundreds of pounds a year on your shopping, all without spending a penny. But different supermarkets offer exclusive discounts on different products, so do some research before doing your shopping. Either way, be wary of supermarkets artificially inflating prices to make it seem like you're getting a better deal than you are. A previous investigation by consumer group Which? found Sainsbury's and Tesco have increased the price of everyday goods then slapped loyalty prices on them thinking customers wouldn't notice. Either way, it's worth shopping around though. Supermarkets change their prices all the time, sometimes multiple times daily, so it's worth researching to ensure you're getting the best price on an item. You can use websites like Trolley to see how the major supermarket's compare in terms of price on any number of goods. Morrisons is selling the 90g ball in both the original and mint flavours for £1.50, for those with a member's card. The full price of the tasty treat is usually £2 and the reduced price is also cheaper than what Sainsbury's and Tesco sell it for, which is £1.95 at both supermarkets. Even with a Tesco Clubcard, Terry's Chocolate Orange 90g costs £1.75, making the Morrisons offer cheaper. 2

Morrisons shoppers can bag freebies worth £30 through loyalty scheme perk
Scroll down to see what freebies are on offer CASH IN Morrisons shoppers can bag freebies worth £30 through loyalty scheme perk MORRISONS shoppers can bag free goodies worth up to £30 through its reward scheme. Customers with a More Card loyalty scheme can claim premium kitchenware for free through a lesser-known stamp promotion currently available in stores. 2 Morrisons is giving shoppers the chance to win freebies worth up to £30 Credit: Morrisons 2 Shoppers have until the end of next week to collect stamps Morrisons is giving shoppers the opportunity to continue collecting stamps until next Sunday, June 8, with redemption available until June 22. The supermarket giant is giving away Pyrex containers, including a 2.6L dish normally worth £30, to shoppers who rack up enough stamps. For every £10 spent in-store, you'll earn one stamp, and once you hit 30 or more, you can start trading them in for top kitchen gear completely free. One Morrisons worker spilled the beans in the Extreme Coupons and Bargains UK Facebook group, writing: "Lots of customers don't even know about this scheme, so it's been a nice surprise for them!" All you need to do is check your stamp balance, it's printed on the bottom of your receipt or visible in the More Card app and then head to the till with your chosen Pyrex item and scan your More Card. If you've got enough stamps, it's yours for free. The range includes handy tubs in sizes from 600ml to 2.6L, plus a pump to suck out air and keep your food fresher for longer. One happy shopper shared: 'I got the largest rectangle yesterday and still have some stamps left!' You'll need 30 stamps to bag a small item, 40 for a medium, and 50 for the top-of-the-range large dish, meaning you'd need to spend around £500 to earn the full set. But considering it's a freebie just for doing your usual food shop, savvy shoppers say it's 'always nice to have something for nothing'. Exploring Popular Supermarkets in the UK If you're not already a More Card member, you can sign up for free by downloading the app on Google Play or the App Store. And while you're collecting stamps, you'll still earn More Points as usual which can be converted into vouchers for money off future shops. You can find your nearest store using the store finder tool. Morrisons loyalty boss Kate Lavery said the new perk is a 'bonus layer' on top of points and discounts, giving customers even more bang for their buck. It comes after the supermarket giant has made a huge change to its loyalty scheme and shoppers can now earn EXTRA points towards their purchases. Morrisons originally scrapped its More Points scheme in 2021, rebranding as My Morrisons, but reversed the decision in 2023 after shopper demand. Now, Morrisons More Card holders can collect points with over 300 popular brands including eBay, Just Eat, Expedia, Asos, Very, and loads more. Once 5,000 More Points are collected, shoppers will be handed a £5 voucher – better known as a Morrisons Fiver – to redeem on their next shop in store or online. How to save money on your food shop Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save hundreds of pounds a year: Odd boxes - plenty of retailers offer slightly misshapen fruit and veg or surplus food at a discounted price. Lidl sells five kilos of fruit and veg for just £1.50 through its Waste Not scheme while Aldi shoppers can get Too Good to Go bags which contain £10 worth of all kinds of products for £3.30. Sainsbury's also sells £2 "Taste Me, Don't Waste Me" fruit and veg boxes to help shoppers reduced food waste and save cash. Food waste apps - food waste apps work by helping shops, cafes, restaurants and other businesses shift stock that is due to go out of date and passing it on to members of the public. Some of the most notable ones include Too Good to Go and Olio. Too Good to Go's app is free to sign up to and is used by millions of people across the UK, letting users buy food at a discount. Olio works similarly, except users can collect both food and other household items for free from neighbours and businesses. Yellow sticker bargains - yellow sticker bargains, sometimes orange and red in certain supermarkets, are a great way of getting food on the cheap. But what time to head out to get the best deals varies depending on the retailer. You can see the best times for each supermarket here. Super cheap bargains - sign up to bargain hunter Facebook groups like Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK where shoppers regularly post hauls they've found on the cheap, including food finds. "Downshift" - you will almost always save money going for a supermarket's own-brand economy lines rather than premium brands. The move to lower-tier ranges, also known as "downshifting" and hailed by consumer expert Martin Lewis, could save you hundreds of pounds a year on your food shop. How does the Morrisons More Card work? The Morrisons More Card lets you earn points on purchases which can be used to get money off future shops. Once you get to 5,000 points you can keep saving, or convert them into a voucher worth £5 to spend in-store or online. You can't earn loyalty points when buying certain products though, including tobacco, infant milk or formula and gift cards. The full list of excluded products is on the Morrisons website. The More Card also gives you access to personalised offers based on your shopping habits, including discounts on specific products or extra points on certain purchases. You can get a physical More Card and scan it at the till or swipe a virtual card via the app when shopping in-store.
