A SHOPPER who took to Facebook to boast about nabbing 19 bags of chocolate for just 10p each has been savaged by trolls.
Rosie Santos posted on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on the social media site, sharing a picture of the Cadbury funsize treat bags piled high on the self checkout.
She also posted a snap of the total of her haul – £1.90 – and wrote: "Just got these for 10p each in morrisons."
In an attempt to ward off trolls, she added: "Also to add there was about 10 more boxes full left."
But her bid didn't work, as critics were out in full force, with many suggesting they would have donated the chocolate to their local food bank.
"If I found these, would buy loads, as keep a couple of bags for my family, but then donate the rest to local food banks, so they have treats for the children in food parcels," one person wrote.

While another added in reply to that comment: "I’d probably do the same as well, some people don’t realise not everyone is selfish."
"I would buy and donate to my sons disability group," someone else commented.
"Think about yourself and not others," a fourth fumed.
But others insisted Rosie shouldn't have to "justify" her buy.

"Why do people feel the need to have to tell people they donate to a food bank just do it and leave this poor woman with her chocolate?" one asked.
"Now I have to go look," another added.
"I will get as many as possible as I am not adverse to clearing a shelf or two and I won’t and don’t see the need to justify myself."
"I'm just mad that you didn't get one more to round it off to £2.00," someone else hilariously wrote.
