Home Bargains is selling giant boxes of 100 Jaffa Cakes for just £4

Huge boxes of Jaffa Cakes have been reduced to £4 at Home Bargains.

Home Bargains is selling massive boxes of 100 Jaffa Cakes for the fine price of £3.99.

No, this is not a drill.

The brilliant offer is the store's 'star buy' this week, but you'll have to brave the cold and trek right down to your closest Home Bargains if you're keen to purchase - as it is unfortunately only available in store.

A box of 18 normally costs around £1, so if you're a fan of the tangy chocolatey treats then you'd be saving £2 by treating yourself to this deal.

The offer was initially spotted on the Dansway Deals Facebook group and word pretty much just spread like wildfire from there.

One group member wrote: 'Wow I need a box. Great price.'

Another Facebook user spoke on behalf of the nation with this comment: 'I wouldn't care buy them!! Too much temptation.'

It has not yet been confirmed just how many stores this offer is available in, so if you'd like to investigate further then your best bet would be to head down to your local shop to see if Jaffa Cakes have been reduced in price.

With all this recent cold weather sweeping in and presenting us the threat of being snowed in, this box is actually multi-purposed. Apart from providing enough snacks to last you a whole weekend indoors (hello, there's 100 of them!?), it also gives you the ability to pig out while you and your loved ones spark up that age old debate: are Jaffa Cakes a biscuit, or are they a cake?

Tesco is selling half price Easter eggs that come in at only 75p each

If Jaffa Cakes don't tickle your fancy, then also be sure to brave the wet trek to Tesco, as its stores are selling Easter eggs at half price this week, meaning they come in at only 75p each.

That should definitely be enough chocolate to get you through the blisteringly cold weather. Good luck out there, over and out.
