Best supermarket Christmas snacks including pigs in blankets crisps and white chocolate snowballs – prices start at 75p
CHRISTMAS is just around the corner and for those looking to indulge in some festive snacking, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite nibbles this year.
Top picks include Asda's pigs in blankets flavoured crisps and Sainsbury’s white chocolate and coconut hazelnut snowballs, and prices start from just 75p.
Most of the snacks are available in store and online but you'll need to remember to factor in delivery costs, plus minimum spends when shopping on the website.
Also remember to compare prices across supermarkets as buying a similar product that's not linked to the festive season is likely to be much cheaper.
We've already taken a look at the best Christmas buffet food and festive desserts available to buy from UK supermarkets this year.
