It just shows you how stale that stuff really is by the time you get around to buying it.
I was eating Creme Eggs on Dec 27.
Co-op had them out on Hogmanay 🤷♂️
Happy New Year
Why have they skipped valentine’s day? Isn’t that usually pushed first?
Or are we to buy valentine’s eggs this year?
You think it’s bad but they’re all for next Easter.
Just in time for me finishing my new year’s diet
They’ve been in the warehouse since just before Christmas eve
Tesco do this every year though, they know they’ll sell.
And the Co Op, short dated hot cross buns on the bargain trolley as well so it’s been a day or two.
Morrisons are doing this too – have been for a few days. So sad, they don’t even taste the same anymore.
Shakes head in disappointment ….
Somewhere I try to avoid…
Creme Egg and Mini Eggs come out at Christmas now because there are so many others taking the mantle. Malteaser, After Eights and Reeces are all pretty decent too so it’s forced their arm.
The Twirl & Smarties Easter Eggs, I don’t understand. That’s fucking mental.
There were eggs in some shops before Xmas ffs!
And Christian’s have the cheek to claim they are persecuted while their weird ass holidays take over every shop for more than half the year.
Same in Asda and Morrisons
These have been out since boxing day.
It’s quite clever really. Everyone expects this to happen but people still get indignant when it happens and post pics all over the internet creating free advertising for the stores.
Was in home bargains few days ago. They are the same.
When I worked the coop a few years ago, I was putting Easter stuff out on Boxing Day.
Brilliant, I love the mini egg bars they get in.
Boooo Tesco
2 weeks ago celebrate Jesus being born, now celebrate him dieing lol
My mum is delighted because she can get stuck into the white choc Creme Eggs and salted caramel Lint ones
If it means I can start binging mini eggs then I won’t complain. Much like when the Christmas food aisle comes out at tesco meaning I can have the sweet and salty pretzels they do.

Same as every year
yeah, the shops get their Easter stuff coming in before Christmas has finished.
Nothing new, they started putting them out on Boxing Day years ago
I find it funny because people on the Ireland sub also pointed this out a few days prior.

You mean you’re not EGG-CITED^© to have marketing season after marketing season rammed down your throat every time you go shopping for essentials, reminding you to be constantly having spending money unnecessarily on your mind at all times? You have to buy buy buy. Go to work, and spent it on our products or you’re a bad person to your friends and family.
I got a fair few mini eggs in my delivery on the 23rd of December. Like, Christmas hadn’t even been lol
It’s a meme that gives them so much publicity,
Eggcellent – more chocolate goodies to remind me I’m still broke from Christmas never mind all the stuff that comes before Easter.
If people didn’t buy it, it wouldn’t be out. They’re supplying what people want.
