EARLIER this year people were scrambling to get their hands on the whimsical Chip mug from Primark's Beauty And The Beast range.

But shoppers needed a magic spell to get hold of one as they flew off the shelves up and down the country selling out virtually instantly.

Demand was so high for the cute £4 purses that sellers began listing the them on eBay for up to FIVE times the original price.

But Disney fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Primark announced they are relaunching the line.

From mid-July Chip will be back on the shelves and this time he'll be joined by four other characters from the film - all immortalised as coin purses.

The wardrobe Madame de La Grande Bouche, the teapot Mrs Potts, the clock Cogsworth and the candelabra Lumiere are all up for grabs for just £4 each.

The original Chip coin holder comes in the shape of the famous tea cup, features a zip fastening around the rim and a gold handle.

The must-have item sparked a frenzy online with one Disney-obsessive dubbing the craze "Chipgate".

Fans have already taken to social media to celebrate the news of its return.

Twitter user @ItsHarleyB said: "Primark has just announced more Beauty and the Beast collection  their bringing out more purse like the chip one @Primark Thank you."
