I was up in Tescos over the weekend and they have there Easters Eggs on the shelf already.

FFS we've got Valentines and Mother's Day before then

 

Yeah I saw that in the papers the other day. Dont hurt to keep the seasonal isle ticking over besides, early production will hopefully mean some bargains lol.

Hotel Chocolat only for me though lol

 

I've already eaten an Easter Egg in 2009 ..... yummmmmm

 

Seeeee method to their madness lol

 

Me too, but I still don't want to relieve it by going back to work tomorrow. If it was Easter at least it would be warm enough to work on the car, but not while the drive is covered in snow.

 

Aye. Desperate credit crunch merchandising. May be, they are insecure of Asda doing one over every other supermarket. Saying that, I recently bought some crabsticks and soups in Asda. The tasted nothing as good as Tesco's.

 

smacks of desperation you ask me ..!

 

We bought a chicken for the Sunday roast, and tasted better than any of the ones we've had from Asda recently. Glad they were on 3 for a tenner as I've now got some more tasty birds stuffed away in the shed.

 

i admit to eating 4 creme eggs already this year

 

the 3 for a tenner chicken we bought was lovely too, apparently the lamb chops were a bit shoddy, yet to try the porkie chops

Im not gonna complain about any bargains on offer right now

 

2 for me so far lol.
Oh and why did Tesco have to drop the price of Quality Street tins to £4 !!!

 

make that 5

 

Years ago when I worked in retail we always put the Easter eggs out in January, it's certainly never bothered me as a consumer what the shops choose to put out and when so I could never understand why customers got so worked up over it.
Funny thing though - it was the same customers who spent two months prior to Easter complaining about how early we were that would then come in late on the Easter Saturday and cry that there were no decent eggs left.

 

Costco had them out on New Years Eve

 

John Lewis had some Valentines stuff out before Christmas

 

ATEOTD I suppose it is all consumer driven, if we didn't buy it now they wouldn't sell it now, so we only have ourselves to blame.

Bunny curry anyone

 

I bought easter eggs last year on easter tuesday when they were cheap, I still have them on top of my fridge for this year Also I even still have an egg and a half on my fridge from two years ago !!!!

 

nowt wrong being a little eggcentric

 

eggactly...

 

Roses and Quality st were 2 for £7 in the run up before Xmas at Asdas. Promotion didn't last long though.
