The supermarket giant, known for its bargains, has introduced a range of large candles which resemble a much-loved and much more expensive brand.

Pacific Wax Co, on sale at the majority of stores, comes in a variety of fruity smells.

Classic scents, such as vanilla and cotton fresh, are also available.

One shopper took to Facebook to share the two “gorgeous” candles she had brought this week.

Judith Vincent purchased a large ‘Limoncello Sorbet’ and ‘Celebration’.

She said: “[These were] £3.50 each. Large candles [in] Asda.

“[I’ve] tried lemon & it smells gorgeous.”

One person commented that she couldn’t agree more and that the candles were lovely.

The same size of Yankee Candle usually retails at £30 – saving customers a whopping £26.50.

Smaller versions of the brand are available for around £2.

Asda is also selling Pacific Wax Co wax melts for just £1.50.

It comes after one savvy shopper found the “bargain of the century” in-store this week.

Mum Charlotte Quinn found a 32-piece grey cutlery set – including a tray – for just 60p.

Alerting others online, she wrote: “Being a mother of five I’m always short on cutlery, I’m sure they eat yogurts and throw their spoons in the bin.

“Anyway, I was looking for new cutlery and saw these on the shelf marked down from £12 to £6. I thought I’ll grab one at the price.”

But Charlotte then shared: “Scanned through at 60p so I went back for another.” 

What should have cost Charlotte £24 for two 36 piece cutlery sets, in fact cost her only £1.20.
