The VERY unexpected item flying off shelves at Coles and Woolworths right now: 'Everyone is obsessed'
A surprise new supermarket item has landed in Woolworths and Coles - and it's sending Aussie fans of music and sweet snacks into a spin. The buzz began in the US, where the item launched in early June and promptly sold out nationwide. Now, the long-awaited treat has finally arrived Down Under, and it's already flying off shelves. The product in question? None other than Selena Gomez 's limited-edition Oreo cookies - a horchata-inspired, chocolate-and-cinnamon flavoured twist on the iconic snack. The special edition cookies are currently on shelves at Woolworths for $3, but bargain hunters will want to head to Coles, where the range is on special for just $1.50. The cookies aren't just tasty - they're personal. Each one features one of five embossments inspired by the superstar herself, including her signature cookie and playful designs like 'Selena in the Studio' and 'Play Your Heart Out,' with a vinyl spinning as if on a record player. Selena shared her excitement on Instagram, writing: 'I'm super excited/geeked out to share that I'm collaborating with Oreo! I'm so grateful for the chance to create my very own flavour... I can't wait for everyone to try it!' Selena shared her excitement on Instagram, writing: 'I'm super excited/geeked out to share that I'm collaborating with Oreo! I'm so grateful for the chance to create my very own flavour... I can't wait for everyone to try it!' The cookies have already made waves online, with Aussie fans rushing to post reviews. 'These are so delicious,' one shopper wrote. 'I love Selena Gomez and cinnamon so I definitely need to try these,' another added. A third said, 'They're so good I went back and stocked up on more.' 'Don't judge if you like cinnamon scrolls and expect the same thing from these cookies - I really loved the amount of cinnamon in it, not overpowering,' a foodie wrote. The release also comes with a digital twist - each pack includes a QR code that unlocks exclusive content for fans. With limited stock and high demand, shoppers are advised to move fast if they want to score a taste of Selena's signature flavour before they disappear from shelves here, too.

Yao Chen on her Labubu: The only profitable investment in my life!
25 Jun - Yao Chen recently revealed that she had actually made a profitable investment, albeit unintentionally, when she decided to buy a Labubu. The actress recently shared a photo showing her collection of stuffed toys, including one Labubu doll wearing a bucket hat and brown sweater. She wrote, "Last year, I spent several hundred yuan to buy this little monster with sharp teeth when I was shopping in a store. My colleagues laughed at me and said it was ugly. But it became a global hit this year." To make it even funnier, Yao said that she actually had bought a limited edition Labubu that is worth a lot of money, adding, "This is probably the only profitable investment in my life." When one netizen asked why she decided to buy it at a time when it wasn't a craze yet, she said, "Because it smiles so widely, it gives me a familiar and friendly feeling." The particular Labubu, called "Dress Be Latte" was priced at RMB 499 (USD 69.50). A Pop Mart source stated that the said latte version is currently out of stock. (Photo Source: Yao Chen Weibo)

Mystery surrounds 'huge' Woolworths news that foodies in the know are gossiping about
FEMAIL can confirm that a banana bread flavoured crumpet is soon set to arrive in Woolworths stores - but mystery surrounds the highly anticipated launch. Rumours of the new Golden Bakery Banana Bread Crumpets started circulating online in recent days, generating huge interest among crumpet fans. The news was first broken by Melbourne food reviewer Nectro Vlangos, who goes by the online name @NectoriousPapi, after he posted about the upcoming launch to his TikTok account. In a 17-second video titled 'New and Coming Soon to Woolworths', one of the featured product items that momentarily flashed on-screen was a product image of the new Golden Bakery Banana Bread Flavoured Crumpets. The brand's iconic crumpets have been reimagined with a 'banana bread' flavour, and are set to be sold in a packet of six square-shaped crumpets. According to the product label, the product is a 'new limited edition' variety and is 'made with real banana'. FEMAIL spoke to an inside source who confirmed that the upcoming product launch would be available for a limited item frame and would be sold in select locations. They were unable to confirm the exact launch date in stores. Golden were unable to be reached for comment by FEMAIL. But their own social media channels have thus far remained tight-lipped about the upcoming product launch. Nevertheless, the comments section of the @NectoriousPapi video were alight with excitement from Aussie shoppers interested in tasting the new breakfast hybrid food. 'I don't even like crumpets but banana bread anything, count me in,' said one shopper. 'Keen for the crumpets', added another. Rumours of the upcoming special variety crumpets also reached Facebook, revealed in one post that solely contained the six-word headline: 'Look what is coming to Woolworths'. The Facebook post attracted loads of replies from curious foodies, with some already planning how they can use the new 'game changing' item to level up their breakfast. 'This with butter and maple syrup will be next level!' replied one. 'I'm imagining spreading with butter and cinnamon sugar, added another. 'Pour some custard in the holes and air fry for a few minutes then drizzle with maple syrup,' suggested a third person. However, a few commenters expressed concern about the unusual flavour combination. 'I can't help but think these will taste like the 80s... When your sandwich got packed in the same lunchbox as your banana so everything tasted like banana,' read one laughing reply. 'Cannot put vegemite & cheese on banana crumpets, that ain't right,' said another. 'Does it taste like real bananas or does it have that yucky fake banana taste? I wouldn't mind trying it but depends what everyone else thinks,' questioned a third. George Weston Foods, the parent company of Golden Bakery, recently launched a quirky new advertising campaign under the slogan 'make every bite Golden'. Although the new campaign champions the classic Golden Bakery Crumpet, a spokesperson told B&T that the message was about inspiring Aussies to reimagine the humble crumpet with delicious new possibilities. 'Golden crumpets have always had a place at the table, and now we're giving people more reasons to bring them back, play with them, and make them their own,' said George Weston Foods marketing and innovations director Brett Grebert.

Rare Cadbury chocolate treats spotted on B&M shelves
CHOCOLATE lovers are going wild after a rare Cadbury treat from overseas was spotted on B&M shelves. The 5 Star Mini Treats – a caramel-packed favourite usually found in far-flung places like India, Brazil and South Africa – are now being sold for just £2 in UK stores. 1 The surprise choc drop includes 15 individually wrapped caramel nougat bars, each coated in Cadbury's smooth chocolate. It's not listed on the B&M website, so it's likely a limited-time offer – meaning fans will need to move fast if they want to snap one up. B&M teased the arrival on Instagram, said: 'The newest treat has just flown into B&M. These 5 Star Mini Treats are fab for sharing… Who'll be grabbing a packet before they're gone?!' And fans wasted no time flooding the comments. One shopper wrote: 'They look bloody good. I looked at these yesterday but didn't buy them… now I've seen the inside I'm off to B&M in case they sell out.' Another simply said: 'Running to @bm_stores.' A third tagged a mate and asked: 'Wanna try these?' And a fourth added: 'They look lovely.' The 5 Star bars aren't normally sold in the UK – instead, they're a global favourite in countries like Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Egypt. But now Brits can finally try them without hopping on a flight. Exciting new chocolates that have been spotted on shop shelves The 150g family-style pack sits among B&M's other Cadbury chocs – but not every store may stock them, and prices could vary slightly. To find your nearest B&M branch, head to the store locator on its website. As always, it's worth using price comparison sites like to check where the best deals are – especially if you're stocking up. In other chocolate news, Toblerone confirmed it has axed an iconic chocolate bar leaving shoppers devastated. Sweet giant Mondelez exclusively told The Sun, shoppers will no longer be able to get their hands on the dark chocolate version of the bar. Recently, shoppers were seen flocking to Morrisons to get their hands on a whopping 360g Toblerone bar. The sweet treat was being snapped up for just £3 using Morrisons More card. The bars previously hit shelves for £6.26, meaning shoppers are making a saving of over 50%. Elsewhere, shoppers spotted Cadbury's Daim Eggs back on shelves for just £1.50 on B&M shelves. The Easter treat made its return after the Christmas version, Dairy Milk Robins, was discontinued, leaving shoppers gutted. Whilst, Morrisons slashed the price of a number of its big packs of Cadbury chocolates to just 87p. The chocolates include Bitsa Wispa, Crunchie Rocks, Oreo Bites, and Cadbury Animals, all going for a fraction of their usual price. The 110g bags of sweet treats usually range anywhere between £1.75 to £2 at the major supermarkets. Remember to compare prices It is important to always shop around as you might find a cheaper alternative. Websites like Trolley and Price Spy let you compare thousands of products across different retailers to find the best price. Price Spy even lets you see how much an item has cost over time, so you can see if the current price is a good deal. A quick scan on the Google Shopping/Product tab will also bring up how much retailers are selling a certain item for too. How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.

'I just thought it was really nice. It was beautiful. And I knew it would be something that she'd like.' The watch was promoted as 'one of 250' made, 'So that attracted me,' Petit said. Despite liking the style of the watch, Petit's wife Melanie said she noticed the misspelling right away. 'The T is missing. It just says R-U-M-P,' she said. 'How could they process this and go through something without checking their work?' Ultimately, Petit said he is 'very disappointed.' 'I wanted to do a special thing for her,' he said. 'And we expected that it would have the integrity of the President of the United States and good follow-through.' says it has a license to use Trump's name, and likeness and promotes its products as 'official.' The site adds that the watches are 'not political' and 'are not designed, manufactured, distributed or sold by Donald J.

Petit added, 'I think that someone needs to be aware of it in their licensing department, that someone's dropped the ball big time.' The Daily Beast has reached out to Trump Watches for comment.
