Petrol costs are through the roof with the average price per litre on April 21 hitting 162.1p, according to confused.com. The ECHO decided to investigate how the price of a Freddo chocolate bar has increased with the cost of living.

The 18g bar has become a benchmark to measure inflation, with many seeing it as the most relatable way to see how much the price of food items have risen. The frog-shaped chocolates were initially 10p when they were relaunched by Cadbury back in the 1990s.
