In case you missed it, Trader Joe's released their own version of Dubai Chocolate bars earlier this week, and they reportedly sold out within a day. But if you live in the tri-state area, our KCL deal hunters found them in stock at a store in New Jersey, and as promised, it was only $3.99. They'll likely sell out quickly, so stop by Trader Joe's ASAP if you've been waiting to try it. (We found it on an aisle endcap near the front of the store.)

Why's Dubai Chocolate so popular anyway?
Dubai chocolate bars, made from dark chocolate and filled with pistachio cream and kataifi, went viral on TikTok a few months ago. While shoppers still can't get enough of them, who doesn't want them for less? Leave it to Trader Joe's, who recently made headlines for offering the best price for eggs, to offer yet another great bargain.
Is Trader Joe's $3.99 price tag on Dubai Chocolate a good deal?
Well, given that the original Dubai Chocolate bar, made by FIX Dessert Chocolatier in Dubai, costs a whopping $120 for a pack of six, the short answer is a big yes.
But in the land of budget-friendly varieties, the answer is a little more nuanced. Let's do the math: A Trader Joe’s Dubai Chocolate bar weighs 3.52 ounces, which breaks down to about $1.13 per ounce. While this unit price is higher than Costco’s price of $0.74 per ounce, the total package cost of Trader Joe’s chocolate is significantly lower, as you're only spending $4 instead of $12 for a bag at Costco.
Either way, this deal is worth snatching up, but keep in mind that Trader Joe’s has placed a purchase limit of five bars per customer, ensuring more shoppers can try it. (In the spirit of smart couponing, we always recommend buying what you'll use, rather than clearing shelves.)
