Duty free 'costs more than supermarkets'

TRAVELLERS hoping for pre-Easter chocolate bargains could find airport duty free outlets more expensive than supermarkets.

Treats such as a 400g bar of Toblerone can cost as much as 5 in duty free compared with 2 at Asda, the retail price comparison website mySupermarket.co.uk found.

A 400g box of Cadbury Roses can cost 5.50 in duty free compared with 2.69 at Sainsbury's, and a 400g Lindor offering costing 10.50 at duty free is 6 at Ocado.

MySupermarket.co.uk spokesman Jonny Steel said: "Many holidaymakers are still under the illusion that products in duty free always represent good value which is sadly not always the case."
