Lucky mum bags £5,000 ticket in Aldi chocolate bar- and there's still more to find

An Aldi shopper had a lucky shopping trip when she found a golden ticket in a bar of chocolate.

Like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, golden tickets can be found hidden in Aldi's Dairyfine Golden Giveaway Chocolate Bars.

The special tickets can be worth £5,000 or a life changing £10,000.

After one shopping trip with her son, Sian Walker bagged the £5,000 that has allowed her to build her home's 'dream extension', Manchester Evening News reports.

The 43 year old explained she was 'joking' with her son, pretending they had won-unbeknown to them, there was a genuine golden ticket inside the snack.

She said: “I couldn’t believe it. I first picked up one of the smaller bars of chocolate then swapped it for the larger one to share with my son.

"We were joking around pretending we had won and then when we opened it up it was such a surprise to see the golden ticket inside!

“It’s such an amazing gift and has come just in time for helping us build our dream extension on our home.

"Thank you so much Aldi, this really is going to make such a big difference!”

Only three winners across the country have been announced so far which means 22 golden tickets are still up for grabs.

The only thing shoppers need to do to be in for a chance of winning is enter any Aldi store and buy a giant bar of Dairyfine Milk Chocolate.
