B&M is selling Christmas sweets FOUR MONTHS early
The discounter is already stocking sweets with festive packaging even though it's only August
B&M has left shoppers baffled by stocking festive sweets in August - four months before Christmas.
Customers have already spotted tubes of Drumstick Squashies, Rowntrees Fruit Pastilles, Jelly Tots, Caramac and Haribo which are often sold in December as stocking fillers.
The packaging on the tubes has a snow covered Christmas trees, snowflakes and present bows printed on them.
The Drumstick chewy sweets come in three flavours, original, bubblegum and a festive cherry and apple pie.
Technically there isn't any reference to Christmas on the tubs and tubes of Haribo but you mostly find them for sale at the supermarket on the build up before Christmas.
Often, you'll find them on the shelves next to boxes of Quality Street and Heroes.
Instagrammer has been posting about his festive finds over the past week and customers are getting excited.
One person wrote that the sweets made her "so excited" while another said "I need to get my hands on them".
The boxes of Haribo cost £3.99 each while the giant tubes are £2.99.
We're not sure how much the other sugary snacks cost but we've asked B&M and will update this article as soon as we know.
They're not the only ones already cashing in on the festivities.
