I cant believe it!!!!!!
Went to Tesco yesterday and YES they`ve got cream eggs on the shelf already. I suppose by March the paddling pools will be out
Why is everybody in such a rush to get through the year?

Do you think the world is in a rush?

No the Creme egg bars are.
Creme eggs and mini eggs are only sold between the end of December and Easter! Cadburys say its keeps them kinda special or something like that!

I know a fella who works for Tesco who goes in on Xmas day. Travels all the way down to the warehouse, picks up all the eggs, and has them ready on the lorries for the first unloading at the stores.

Hey, It'll be Christmas again soon.... :hihi:

My Co-Op also has Easter stuff on sale, personally I think it's ridiculous to tout themed goods so early....

Had to have a word with my Co-Op as well earlier, they have put 20% on top of the previous shelf price instead of putting just the extra 2.5% on :loopy:

3 days hard work manager said - I just brought him bang back down to earth :thumbsup:

There's already a thread in the general discussion http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=697194

I don't see why people are so shocked as supermarkets have been doing this for the past 5 years or more. They only sell mini eggs and creme eggs between the end of xmas and easter so they do big deals with the major chains to get them out and on sale asap after xmas.

In a couple of months time when customers decide they need to start buying their easter eggs they'll remember that they saw 'Tesco just after xmas' had them in stock so will probably get them from there. It's all to do with product awareness for customers.

At Easter time all sorts of places will be stocking Easter eggs, there is no need to do it now. The only thing Tesco is making people aware of is the fact they are being idiots.
