Those that couldn't get into a physical store ordered their packages online, so there are very few leftover.

Prices start from $1.50 for the large rectangular boxes - down from $6.35 - while three packs are $2.75 down from $11.

One woman said she was disappointed she didn't spot them on shift because she 'works at Woolworths' and would have liked to stock up.

'Now I see why I can never get these containers when they're on sale,' joked another lady.

It's not known how long the clearance sale will last for but customers are cautioning those that haven't yet to 'get in quick'.
