Pretty sure this is one of those Uniquely British Things much like a lot of stuff involving Cadbury chocolate is.

 

[BIG ASHLEY]

No, a selection box is just a box with half a dozen different chocolate bars in it. There are no societal restrictions on what days you can eat them

Being the prime example of an american, I feel like I have seen something like this but it's a rare occurrence. Not many chocolate stores here tbh, the most I've seen is a Russel Stovers that was demolished to have a Starbucks put there. That might be part of the reason.
