Aldi is selling a chocolate sloth for Easter and it costs £3

ALDI is selling a chocolate sloth figure for Easter – and it’s better value than what you’ll find at M&S.

The supermarket is selling a “Sonny the Sloth” chocolate lolly, a hollow figure, plus a sloth-themed Easter egg complete with cuddly toy.

The cheapest of the bunch is the 35g chocolate lolly, which comes to 85p, while the 200g edible sloth figure costs £2.99.

For those looking to splash out this Easter, which falls on 12 April, 2020, the 122g Easter egg and sloth plush toy set is priced at £4.99.

The cute treats were flagged on the Money Saver Bargain Hunters Facebook group by one happy customer.

Fellow excited shoppers have since been replying to the thread, saying that they’ll be hitting up their nearest Aldi soon.

One customer said: “Mia would love this!”

While someone else replied: “I got my girl the lolly yesterday. She was so happy.”

The hollow sloth figure is around £2 less than what you’ll find for an almost identical version in M&S – and you get more choc for your money.

M&S’ “Seth the Sloth” chocolate comes in at 135g, which is 65g less than Aldi.

The new sloth chocolates come as part of Aldi’s new Easter egg collection which features a range of boozy eggs.

Costing £5 each for 180g of chocolate, the supermarket is selling both gin and Prosecco infused Easter eggs.

Aldi’s white chocolate egg and Tesco’s choccy dinosaur have been named among winners in the annual BBC Good Food blind taste test.

Meanwhile, Asda is selling a Ferrero Rocher egg for £10.

B&M shoppers can also pick up a white chocolate strawberries and cream Baileys Easter egg for £8.99.
