Guest Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Just in case you need to be prepared!!!! Look here! Linda Just ignore this second link-it didn't work first time and now I can't delete it!!! Look here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquieL Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Yes I saw them. Isn't it ridiculous! Easter is in April this year as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Easter is in April this year as well. As well as what? As a lifetime devotee of the Cadbury Creme Egg I shall no doubt be perusing the Tesco Easter display! But realistically who is likely to be buying their Easter eggs now - I'd only eat them before April! Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquieL Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 You know what I mean Maz Easter is later this year and in April not March, so even more time to buy and eat those eggs before Easter itself. I can only buy nibbles at the last minute before an 'occasion' as I have no will-power, and will end up eating them too soon. Then I have to go out for some more. I used to like Cadbury's creme eggs but now find them too sweet. I think they've got smaller or is it a matter of comparison and have I just got bigger?

Guest Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 But realistically who is likely to be buying their Easter eggs now - I'd only eat them before April! Maz That's probably the idea - marketing tactics to make all us chocaholics buy twice as many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacquieL Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 So do Tescos and M & S. Oh well the world moves on and the lines between festivals become blurred. Didn't it say in that article link that Summerfields hailed Easter as the celebration of Christ's birth! At this rate we'll be having Christmas all the year round. Perish the thought!

Guest Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I was in tesco working today and we do not have our easter eggs out, yet!!! I can tell you that, apparently, we were the first store in Northern Ireland with our christmas stuff out on shelves, as we were used as the standard by which the other stores had to go by. Here's hoping someone else is setting the standard for easter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 And now I've just seen an advert on the tv for cadburys creme eggs, and I haven't taken my christmas decorations down yet. Almost as annoying as all the ads for holidays jackie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
