A bit early i'll admit, but noticed creme eggs for 25p each & boxes of 5 for £1 in Morrisons today (St Helens store).
Can't see them listed online, so could just be an instore deal.
Worth getting before the prices go up towards Easter if you like them!

Use to love these until a couple of years ago and they stopped using Dairy Milk chocolate.
Even though they were very sweet anyway they are far to sweet now with the cheaper chocolate.

We're not even free of the stinky fug of brussels sprouts and Christmas puddings, yet! Tis far too early for this bringing out of Easter merchandise!
However, hot deal.
However X2, both the chocolate and the now thin filling have declined in quality substantially from the Cadburys Creme Eggs I grew to know.
I shall abstain, and shake my head silently in the corner, sitting in my Grinch costume.

The filling used to be creamy and smooth. Now it's grainy like they mixed sand in to save money. And the chocolate is rubbish too.

FYI, whether good or bad the chocolate they use is the same they used years ago before they switched to dm
Cadbury even admitted to it last year (just do a search) - I tried posting a link to the Gardian with an article where they admitted it, but it does not seem to work.

Kraft/Mondelez have ruined a great British brand by Americanising it with cheap ingredients and having a complete lack of respect for Cadburys customers. Good deal if you don't mind eating crap.

Do one Cadburys. Not even the new year and your chucking eggs on the shelves. Americans have wrecked this once fine company. I can eat a bar of chocolate in one go now there that small but i dont as they taste sh@.

I know they think we are mugs but not everyone has blindly followed Cadburys & their new recipes... Some of us have just given up on most of their new recipes including these Creme Eggs
Used to love Cadburys chocolate, but can't stand it for the last couple of years. Something has changed it tasted bad. Bad. Bad.

Still prefer dairy milk to galaxy, galaxy is just too sweet for me but it's certainly not as good as it used to be!

Good price ..... but they have changed and now taste nasty !!!
You'll probably find that most supermarkets have got Easter eggs in already but can't put them out till probably after Valentine's Day !! My daughter works in m&s and she said they have started to get stock in of Easter eggs !!

Looking forward to an Aldi (Lidl bar is pretty much the same) Easter Egg with the Chocolate they use Choceur Fruit and Nut Range, 'no bulking' horrid after tasting vegetable fats, just pure Cocoa Butter and 32% Cocoa Solids.
This Aldi Chocolate is pretty much how Cadbury's Fruit and Nut used to taste, before Mondelez destroyed all Cadbury's UK brands. I just won't buy Cadbury's anymore. Awful, its totally ruined. Roald Dahl (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) would be turning in his grave today, knowing what has happened to Cadbury's.

Cadburys/Mondelez will continue to make alot of money.... despite all that's been said here today...
They will keep changing old and churning out new product updates and we will keep buying...buy shares instead :wink:

Third rate chocolate from the psycho control freak American company Kraft, who gave naive Gorden Brown a fat backhander and then got rid of the workers.
Voted Worst Ethical Consumer rating for supply chain management and tax avoidance.
Buy it if you lack morals, or are both greedy and poor, or are too stupid to notice that Aldi choccy is better

I can only agree with most of the commenters here - shove it, Kraft!

Now Kraft have got their lying, cheap, grubby, tax dodging fingers on Toblerone, I see they've started with the changes there too. First, bigger "valleys" ("the customers prefer it" - rubbish!). Soon, no doubt, their gritty nasty recipe will creep in...
Cadburys used to be good quality but now it is just cheap and tasteless

Vote with your wallet. Don't buy any Cadbury products, even if they're on offer.
From the shrinking tins of Roses to changing the shape of chocolate bars to save weight (with a thinly-veiled excuse that it "makes it taste better") to the downsizing of Terry's Chocolate Orange and the many other ways that Mondelez are screwing up British chocolate, these practices really shouldn't be supported.
Plus, do remember that Creme Eggs used to come in packs of six and weighed more for the same price.
