Halloween sweets UK: Treats and chocolates from M&S, Aldi, Iceland, Waitrose, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda, Ocado

Halloween is synonymous with sweets and chocolates. Whether you want delicious treats for yourself and your family to enjoy on 31 October, or you want to make sure you’ve got plenty of goodies to give the trick or treaters who will come to your door.

But, with the cost of living crisis continuing and showing no sign of coming to an end any time soon, it’s important to get the right goods at the right price so you can enjoy the season without having to worry about the impact on the bank balance.

So, here at NationalWorld, we’ve rounded up some of the best value Halloween sweets you can buy from high street shops, supermarkets and grocery stores. We’ve got all the top bulk buy deals, cut price items, branded items and own-brand goods. The good news is that if you happen to have any left over - perhaps if you didn’t get as many trick or treaters as you anticipated - then you can save them for Christmas. It’s a win/win because no matter what you will save money.

So, let’s take a look at some of the best Halloween sweets and chocolates deals for 2023, including goods from M&S, Aldi and more.
