The 850g Cadbury Dairy Milk Gift Bar has been slashed by 33% in Amazon’s Prime Day sale, and it’s now £9 cheaper than supermarkets like Sainsbury’s, Tesco and Asda
Amazon Prime shoppers are snapping up a ‘massive’ Cadbury Dairy Milk bar as it’s reduced in the retailer’s colossal two-day sale. The Prime Big Deal Days runs until 11.59pm tomorrow (Wednesday, October 8) and has slashed prices on countless products across its entire website, including chocolate.
The 850g Cadbury Dairy Milk Gift Bar usually costs £14.02 but shoppers can grab it for just £9.34, offering a discount of 33%. To put it another way, it costs £1.10 per 100g.

This deal is more cost-effective than buying a 360g bar at Tesco, which costs £5 and works out to be £1.39 per 100g. At Sainsbury’s, the 180g bars cost £2.50, equating to £1.53 per 100g, and Asda sells the 180g bars for £2.48, costing £1.38 per 100g.
It’s also cheaper than purchasing directly from Cadbury, where the bar costs slightly more at £11.50, plus you’d also have to pay for shipping. On Amazon, Prime members will get the bar delivered to their home without having to leave the house for free.
The chocolate bar is Cadbury’s flagship brand, made with 100% sustainable cocoa. I ordered this the last time it was on offer to see if it was really that big and, most importantly, worth it.
While I won’t bore you with a review – it’s Cadbury Dairy Milk, so it’s obviously tasty – the thing was nearly as big as my noggin. Even for me, a person with such a sweet tooth that the sugar in Tesco’s baking aisle takes flight at my approach, couldn’t polish it off in one go. In fact, it took a week. The bar is absolutely colossal.
Back on Amazon, the whopping 850g Cadbury Dairy Milk Gift Bar makes a cracking gift, or you could squirrel it away for continuous nibbling. Customers are over the moon with the size and quality of the chocolate bar, which has bagged a rating of 4.7 out of 33,912 reviews.
One happy customer remarked: “Lovely thick Dairy Milk chocolate. Makes a smashing present for those that love chocolate. Decent value for money considering the novelty of it.”
Another chimed in: “This was on offer so a great price, well packaged and arrived a lot earlier than expected. Use by date was about 6 months so plenty of time to enjoy.”
A third added: “Got this for my husband for Valentines day, the only thing he said would make it better for him would have been if they were separated into smaller packets inside, I thought the huge packet was great.”
The majority of grumbles were due to dodgy packaging. One disgruntled customer stated: “Good product but the box was damaged and the bar is snapped. Bought this for a Christmas present and I’ve had to bin the outer box which is disappointing as it made it look more like a gift.”
