Is this a record for the earliest eating of easter eggs?

ARGINITE

It's only a little galaxy truffle one, hollow egg and a few sweets.

ARGINITE

woosaysdan

No one loves choccy more than me but Easter eggs are a complete rip-off. Lots of unnecessary packaging too.

Save money and get HUGE BARS OF CHOCOLATE!

I tried making a solid easter egg. Took about 20 bars of chocolate, and you couldn't bite it.

i love chocolate more than the average joe but i hate easter eggs completely for these reasons

1. rip off

2. the chocolate they use is not the same (quality wise) as what they use in their bars etc.

what about cadburys easter eggs?

i think the choccie is much nicer in them than the standard bars

With Easter only around the corner, what Easter Egg do ya hope to get?

Personally I'd eat whatever I was given.... and the more the merrier, but I adore Terry's Chocolate Orange Eggs.

What is your preference?

MidnightQueen

MMMMmmmmmm........Gimme Galaxy or KitKat anyday!! Nyom nyom.....

Theres a promotion going in Tesco for Caburys eggs. Buy 3 for €10. Aint that a bargain?

Ro: maaan!

They're all the same! It's just a chocolate egg.

I'm holding out until the day after easter so I can get a nicely cheap one.

Blisterman

Do they make m & m eggs?

MidnightQueen

They just look the same but they all dont taste the same! How can u hold out till after easter?? I would die without ever getting an egg before Easter. :eek:

tinkerbell

I love the Milky Bar egg, it's just as nice as a Milky Bar, mmm That said, I really do like the chocolate in Cadbury eggs, and Galaxy eggs, oh too much choice

My mother has clearly gone quite mad and gives me presents at Easter now instead of Easter eggs...

There'll aways be one!!! All to there own opinion I suppose.

So there is no easter egg at all that you like? Do you even like chocolate?

Gossip_girl

For me it would have to be a galaxy one in some shape or form but not all that fussy. If it's got any form of chocolate flavour, I'll be happy.

Caoimhe

Maltesers eggs all the way. Mmmmmmm maltesers...

Can you get Walnut Whip Easter Eggs?

Matthewthebig

Chocolate! mmm. I like all eggs. Mind you the Mars brand eggs are very nice. But then Galaxy has the creaminess! I'm so confused! Mmmm chcolate

I must comment that since the Euro was introduced the prices on everything has gone up, but its quiet notceable on Easter Eggs, some are ridicilously priced.

memphis

Ok, you just crossed the line.

Banned for one week, and don't tell me you hadn't it coming to ya!! PM me next monday and I'll uplift the ban!

The last few years I've been getting a Terry's Chocolate Orange instead of a regular hollow egg. More chocolate for your money and you can fantasise about Dawn French if you're that way inclined.

Yes you can - tiz just an egg with two walnut whips, but not an actual chocolate egg with the walnut whip stuff inside and a nut on top

Are those Terry's Chocolate Orange eggs the same as the actual Terry's Chocolate Orange, only a bigger version? Or are they just a normal chocolate easter egg that tastes orangey?

P.S.
I love Kinder easter eggs, now those are soooo yummy

P.P.S.
I saw those Whole Nut eggs, they also do a Crunchie egg now too, wonder what that's like - the crunchie bits in the chocolate egg!

Its just a big hollow egg, with 2 terry's chocolate orange bars with it, but the good part is that the hollow egg is orange chocolate too. Yummmmmm!!!!

I was helping out at our Parish Sale today and if I'd known the prices Easster eggs were going there for I'd have posted earlier.

Small Eggs eg Cadbury Button's Size were €2

Medium Eggs eg a small Smarties Egg were €2.50

Large Eggs eg an average Egg were €3

Anything larger like the big Quality St eggs were €5

talk about bargins I bought 3 eggs, but not for me 1 for the bf, and one each for my mum and dad.

Have you seen the big hooooooooooj Galaxy Easter Egg?

Loads of chocolatey goodness

I those Cadbury eggs in Superquinn ye were atlking about earlier on in the thread with the bits of nuts of fruits actually in and out through the egg itself.

The sad thing is I had only a tenner in my pocket and that was to buy the messages my mum told me to get. maybe I'm take a trip in again tomorrow and buy em.... if they are still there.

tinkerbell

The type of Cadbury eggs they have with bits of the bar going through 'em are:
Fruit & Nut
Whole Nut
Mini Eggs
Crunchie! <- that one would be cool, the egg with the orangey Crunchie bits going through it
