Easter Egg Deals

Doge

Okay, I know it's a bit early but Easter Eggs are on sale already!

I picked up 3 small sized Cadburys Easter Eggs in Centra Shandon Street Cork for 5 euro.

The non deal price is €3 each.

The Cream egg one came with one cream egg for instance.

The deal wasnt advertised in store but the kind lady at the til scanned the egg at the til 3 times to see if there was a deal and bobs your uncle.

The 3 mediums generally go to 3 for a fiver in the run up...

freshpopcorn

Yes. Super-Valu have all medium Cadburys/Nestle/Mars eggs 3 for €5 until Eater Saturday. Often gets reduced to €4.50.
They generally go 5 for €5 in Tesco for a few days.

Medium sized?

donnyvegas

Dunnes Stores selling 4 Easter Eggs for €4. With €5 off over €25 too - get 25 eggs for €20. Can't imagine these will get any cheaper. Offer ends 11th March.

I wouldn’t call them medium tbh more like small but feck all wrong with them for the price, handy for the neighbours kids

They were called medium last year, the small ones are tiny. I do not like the name change but best to stick with it but maybe point out weights if known

A "medium" last year tended to be 1 single full size bar and a 100g egg. This is like getting 1 bar and 2 dairy milk bars. A retail dairy milk bar is showing as 53g on tesco.

I see new "medium" eggs this year, and weights can be seen on tesco

https://www.tesco.ie/groceries/product/search/default.aspx?searchBox=medium%20easter%20egg

The freddo egg is only 122g in total. So looks like a 100g egg and a mere 22g of "freddo faces"

A creme egg is 138g, 100g and the creme egg is standard 38g.

Mars is 141g so likely a 100g and not full retail bar, but multipack size.

Or a variety of eggs for your own kids, as these offers tend to be cheaper per kilo than bigger eggs. And kids might prefer a load of different eggs.

3 for a fiver in tesco for the small ones. Wish I had seen this post before I bought them. Still, I only get the kids one each and a few chocolate bunnies, that's plenty.

Thanks for the heads up on Eggs at Tesco today lads and lasses,

What did you get? "al pad"? is that "a pack". What shop?

the price per kilo of these eggs is really good, and as you only get 1 bar there is some variety. I always wondered why selection box easter eggs were not a thing, I think in recent years they did have them.

I would much rather eat a 50g half shell of an egg than a regular dairy milk, it melts in the mouth better like those thin bars.

Mine only has the stupid oreo eggs. They aren't even real Cadburys.
The fact that hundreds of them still adorn the shelves suggest they're not the most popular.

Looking at last years threads aldi had "mediums" at 99cent so might happen again.

Like foook were they €17 there the right price now not a bargain

Lol, who the feck was ever paying 17e for one of them?

They normally range from €10+.
€8.50 is generally about the cheapest you'd get those eggs unless you met some trying to sell them off.

vicwatson

Debenhams, so funny

Odyssey 2005

Got lovely large Cadbury eggs in debenhams last week for €8.50.

rubadub

Last year I think the best prices on the large eggs were still about twice the price of the small ones best prices.

e.g. the XL creme egg one comes with 5 eggs and a ~300g egg. For a fiver you could get 5 small ones with 5 creme eggs and 500g of chocolate egg.

Of course it would be odd to be handing over a load of eggs but I would prefer them, the moment that 300g egg is opened its a gonner!

I live across the border and they are £7(€8)in my local spar from day one and that’s not a special or anything
The smaller eggs(medium) were 75p in Tesco in newry a few weeks ago people were taking them out on pallets 😂😂

That is cheap though. I can see in the UK tesco £10, Asda £8, morrisons £8, waitrose £8

the cheapest I see the mediums is £1.

road_high

Debenhams are ridiculous at setting alleged high RRPs then cutting it down to “50% off” to appear like a bargain. They did the same all over their stores particularly with small electrical and household stuff. No one in their right mind would pay €17 for those hence set to 50% and appear like a bargain. Retail psychology 101!
