A MAJOR supermarket has slashed the price of its Quality Street tubs this week in a post Christmas price cut.
Shoppers have been rushing to buy the bargain tubs of the chocolate treats but you'll have to be quick.
Asda shoppers have spotted a store in Doncaster is selling giant 871g Quality Street tins for just £3.
Posting the find onto deal-finding site Hot UK Deals, one eagle-eyed shopper shared the bargain.
The deal has since received a 1000+ hot rating on the website.
It's worth noting that the tub was priced at £6.50 on the shelf, according to the shopper, but then scanned at £3 at the till.

Prices and deals do differ from store to store depending on stock levels so make sure to check your local Asda before you make a purchase.
Do bear in mind though that in the post-Christmas rush, stocks of treats like this could run low so you'll have to be quick.
This deal is the cheapest we've seen, Ocado has the giant tubs listed for £8 online – £5 more than the Asda deal.
But, it's always worth comparing with prices of smaller tubs of Quality Street.

Supermarket slashes the price of Xmas chocolate including Quality Street
B&M is currently selling 650g tubs for £4 – or 62p per 100g.
Meanwhile, Asda has also slashed the price of its 600g tubs too, to just £2.
It appears that most major supermarkets have sold out of both the 600g and 871g Quality Street tubs online as shoppers rushed to grab them in the run-up to Christmas.
So, we'd recommend popping into your closest stores to see if they have any tubs in their reduced to clear section.
It's important to note that the larger size Quality Street do come in a tin, rather than a tub.
You might want to fork out a little bit more for an old-style tin, that you may be able to reuse as something else.
Comparing weights, as well as prices, can help you to work out if you're getting the best deal.
Prices can also vary day to day what deals are on at the time and remember you might pay for delivery you're ordering online.
You can compare prices on websites like Google shopping and Trolley.co.uk – which compares the prices of 130,000 products across 14 major supermarkets.
The Latest Deals app also lets you search items and lets you compare prices at several supermarkets to see where it's cheaper.
We had a look around and found several retailers do have the smaller 220g cartons of Quality Street still in stock, and many have cut their prices too.
Here's how prices of these smaller containers of Quality Street compare at supermarkets and high street stores this week.
Asda
Asda is selling the 220g cartons for £2 this week, so if you're looking for something smaller this could be your ideal find.
Although, the bigger tins and tubs we mentioned earlier are better value for money so do keep an eye out at your local stores.
Morrisons
Morrisons is also selling its cartons of the choc treats for £2.
It was also selling the bigger 871g tins and the 600g tubs but both are out of stock online at the moment.
This means your closest store may still have some in stock though so make sure to check for the best bargain before you buy.
B&M
The discount store B&M is selling the smaller cartons of Quality Street for £3.
They are only available in store though so keep an eye out when you're doing your Boxing Day sales shopping this week.
Tesco
Major supermarket Tesco is also offering the cartons for £3 both online and in store.
Unfortunately, its other tubs and tins do appear to be out of stock.
Do check the stock in your local supermarket though in case there's some in-store bargains available.
Waitrose
Posh shop Waitrose is selling the cartons for slightly more, at £3.15.
It is also sold out of its bigger containers at the moment online.
