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.

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.

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.
