MORRISONS is selling festive-themed butter that's actually in the shape of a snowman and Santa.

The Christmas centre pieces are designed to bring even more joy to the dinner table over the festive season.

 The packs of butter cost £1 each and are available to buy from Wednesday

Each pack of salted butter weighs 100g and costs £1.

You'll be paying over the odds for the novelty butter though as a a 250g normal shaped salted butter costs £1.60 from Morrisons.

That works out 64p per 100, making it 36p cheaper than the festive-shaped butter.

We couldn't actually find any other fun butter shapes like this so prices aren't likely to be able to be beaten elsewhere.

Here's how to cut the cost of your grocery shop

SAVING on your shop can make a big difference to your wallet. Here are some tips from Hannah Maundrell, editor of Money.co.uk, about how you can cut the cost of your shopping bills:

  • Write yourself a list – Only buy items that you need. If it isn’t on your list, don’t put it in the trolley
  • Create a budget – Work out a weekly budget for your food shopping
  • Never shop hungry – you are far more likely to buy  more food if your tummy is rumbling
  • Don’t buy pre-chopped veggies or fruit – The extra they’ll charge for chopping can be eye watering
  • Use social media – follow your favourite retailers to find out about the latest deals
  • Be disloyal – You may want to go to different stores to find the best bargains
  • Check the small print –  It’s always worth checking the price per kg/lb/litre when comparing offers so you’re making a like for like decision as a bigger box won’t necessarily mean you get more
  • Use your loyalty cards – Don’t be afraid to sign up to them all. They all work slightly differently – work out what bonus suits you better and remember to trade in your points for additional rewards

It's not the first time the supermarket has stocked the festive spread - it first proved to be a hit among shoppers back in 2017.

They'll be available to buy in all stores from Wednesday (December 4) although some stores have already started stocking them.

The butters will also be made available to buy online later this week, although there's a minimum spend of £40 before you qualify for delivery, which costs between £1.50 and £5.
