    Has anyone seen any good offers on mini eggs anywhere?

    I picked up a massive bag for €2 in spar a couple of weeks ago but now all I can find anywhere for €2 are the stingy 100g bags...

    Dunnes did have the larger bags reduced from €3.95 to €2 there for a while but I'm not certain if that offer is still on.

    Think Tesco had 2 for €3 on the larger bags, also Dunnes had the small size easter eggs for €2 including the mini egg one for a while.

    Have to hunt some down soon before they vanish for another year, my sister is back from Japan just after Easter and both her and her fiancee love em :p

    Bumping this as it's that time of year again! Yipee :)

    Ok so I'm going to impart my market research to the world - I've tried them all and Aldi have by far and away the nicest mini eggs on the market, plus they have them all year round - they're in around the Aldi M&M type yokes in a yellow bag - plus they're 1.69 for the big bag, they're doing a smaller bag at the checkouts for about 0.69

    my work here is done!

    Thank you! You're a legend! The Caburys are just too expensive at full price...if you have a serious habit like me, that is :) delighted to have your recommendation!

    Ok, on my second bag now and have to say you hit the nail on the head!!! They are deeeeelicious :) and 1.19 for a 150g bag no comparison with 1.99 for 100g!
    Only down aside is I will now eat twice the amount :/
    I will be doing my duty of spreading the word and paying the good news forward so thanks again for doing so for moi!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,354 ✭✭✭cjmcork


    oh and Dealz have the 100g cadburys bag at the moment for 1.49 (1.99 in tesco)

    Does anyone else find that the Cadbury's mini eggs taste different than they used to?

    That's even better a deal than 1.19 for 150g, someone missed that at head office!

    Now you're throwing a cat amongst the pigeons! Time for some more market research I think :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,438 ✭✭✭Crazyteacher


    Any excuse :). I think the chocolate has changed.

    Ok I'm eating some now..they definitely have changed. The chocolate is slightly more sour and less creamy! Having tasted this years offerings from cadburys I think I can safely say the aldi ones are my favourite.

    update - Lidl are doing mini-eggs as specials, so they're with their special foods, not with the regular goodies - 90g bag for 79cent, on behalf of the thread, I tried them yesterday - running a v close second to the Aldi ones! would love to see them all year round!

    I knew it! Everyone said I was going mad. Shall I email cadbury's to query? :)
