    Went into a Tesco Extra for this today and aside from some Lindor eggs there was nothing but empty shelves. Asked a shop assistant and she doesnt think they'll be getting any more in. Pretty mad they are sold out on the Thursday before Easter Sunday and thats it, they must have underestimated how much chocolate people are eating during lockdown.

    Went to Aldi and Lidl too, no easter eggs to be found there either bar 2 small creme eggs ones left on a pallet in Aldi.
    They don't sell out. The staff remove the majority of the eggs from the shelves on Wednesday night and they are returned.

    What?

    I've worked in a couple of different supermarkets and this was never done.

    I worked in one city centre supermarket, I was actually on the easter egg aisle on easter saturday and as soon as I'd walk out the stockroom doors I was mobbed, the trolley was empty before I'd get to the aisle . My whole day was stockroom ...shopfloor 10 paces , u turn, stockroom...we sold out by about 4.

    No, no, no. They were agents for the manufacturers returning the eggs from whence they came. If you haven't bought your eggs by Easter weekend you clearly don't deserve any.

    True story. Heard it from Karen on Facebook who did extensive research on it last Tue lunchtime ;)

    Happens in our local Tesco - the staff wheeled three trolleys full of the smaller eggs into the store room on Wednesday night while we were there. There were only a few of the larger eggs left in a corner of the shop on Thursday morning.

    I can say that eggs are transferred between stores. We transferred a lot of eggs to the bigger tesco in the area last week, when they would have actually sold in our store.

    Sorry for the non bargain post.

    The kit kats are new to me. Sounds like its nutella like inside and the chocolate is flavoured

    Nine bars of two crispy wafer fingers covered with hazelnut flavour milk chocolate (66%)


    A delicious chocolate bar of 2 fingers of crispy wafer biscuit covered with smooth hazelnut spread flavoured chocolate.

    And a honeycomb one

    I've tried all of the new KitKats - hazelnut, orange, dark mint, honeycomb - none of them are anything to write home about. The only modification is a faint taste added to the outer chocolate. No extra swirl or pieces inside.

    Will be sticking with the original!

    I love the hazelnut one, but the honeycomb I thought was bitter or something, wouldn't buy again.

    I loved the mocha ones they used to have. Thought the honeycomb was only okay and am usually a big honeycomb fan.

    The lemon drizzle kit kats are my favourite.

    Tesco 200g pack of nachos are all 35cent. Cool, lightly salted and nacho cheese. I thought the nacho cheese ones were pretty good.

    These same packs are 76p in the UK, so are probably one of these cheap things to compare favourably in price comparisons between supermarkets.

    Like the 61cent pizza which has high stock levels in mine these days.

    These cod fillets are cheap
    Tesco 4 Breaded Cod Fillets 500G
    €1.69

    Are there any other items people know of which are very cheap but not on offer?

    Their own brand poppadoms and naan breads are dirt cheap.

    Their own brand chicken dippers For €1.39 are really nice... 100% chicken breast and battered, not breaded. Yum. Also, great prices on their own brand frozen veg - diced onions, mushrooms, peppers etc. All around 60c a bag.

    Yes, they are often sold out while the breaded will be left. If you see that do not, repeat DO NOT get the breaded ones! they are rotten and nothing like the others at all.

    The battered ones are on a par with birds eye. And I find them much better than lidl or aldis cheap battered versions.

    Is this them? As if it is it says they are made from “ Chopped and shaped chicken” which makes me think chicken Nuggets?

    If I see "chopped and shaped" on chicken products it stays in the shop. Less fussy on fish though.

    Don't expect anything from life, just be grateful to be alive.
