Careful you shouldn't be calling them Easter eggs, you will be offending people :confused:

Think that only covered 4 varieties from memory though, this is better for me have quite a few to buy , thanks OP.

Same as when they were 75p last week then.

If I get them now I will end up eating them all before giving them to the kids before easter. :disappointed:

dont shoot me! but they have the eggs and one bar of choc eggs/buttons etc for £1 today in morrisons :smiley:

12 Easter Eggs for free for new topcashback members http://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2459&awinaffid=261809&clickref=&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.topcashback.co.uk%2Faff-easteregg17%2F

Show me any evidence that the companies are doing what you say and I will be happy to reconsider my opinon.

I agree the word EASTER is not found on the front of the packet on most of the eggs sold.
My guess is that its more down to commercial reasons in the same way Christmas has gone. Remove the word Easter and you have more space to add the words and images you need to make your egg stand out from the others and make more money.
There is a campaign in the media to try and make the decision of these compaines sound like they have to do it for certian religious people when there is no truth in it. This is a sad country when not only when this fake news gets believed as truth but also that we have indeed lost the religion from the seasonal events so that companies can make more money.

This year I will eat Chocolate eggs at Easter. I think this is a good deal from Tesco, however I think I will look for a good deal on the hotel chocolat ones as I prefer their taste.

We shall have to agree to disagree on that.

The bo££ox is when people believe that by moving the word Easter from the front of a packet to the rear its in somehow related to any religion or to make people pacified. I expect the reality is due to marketing as this has become a commercial event instead of the religious event.
Pancake day is not Shrove Tuesday anymore either in the supermarkets when they want us to buy lemons and pancake mix.

It's a real load of bo££ox when our Christian celebrations are diminished (to pacify the minority) in a Christian country.

I bought 32 of them :stuck_out_tongue: A man came up to me with a smile and said are those all for you? I replied, are you calling me fat? Hahaha his pickup line backfired, face got red and stumbled on his words apologising

In the voice of Homer, "Cadburys Easter eggs....uhhhhhh"

That obscure website link simply debunks a spoof Tesco post. Attempts at deflection aside, you agree the word Easter doesn’t feature on the front. Only in small print on the Cadbury reverse is Easter mentioned. Nothing on Nestle. I just checked several types in store. Statements from Cadbury and Nestle in that Telegraph article and others (eg see http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3512381/Cadbury-underfire-hiding-reference-Easter-chocolate-egg-packaging.html ) have Cadbury and Nestle confirming that or making no comment and giving no coherent reason for the change. Cadbury on facebook said they dropped it because “the seasonal design shows what it is” (!)

The Telegraph article has photos of previous Cadbury and Nestle packaging showing Easter was previously used. So why has it been quietly dropped in the UK in recent years in the name on the front? That no sensible person would be put off buying a chocolate egg due to the word Easter doesn’t mean companies don’t make myopic decisions assuming some might. Happens a lot in the UK, even more so in the public sector. Very ironically given Easter like Christmas is mainly secular in the UK nowadays. Another manifestation of the culturally self-destructive Happy Holidays phenomenon.

Adding some more truths into this discussion. Tesco have an EASTER section with EASTER EGGS.
The Eggs (even Cadburys) have EASTER on them - albeit in small writing (not visible on Tesco website)
No one is offended by an Easter egg. There is no PC campaign.
See this interesting article http://www.thatsnonsense.com/tescos-really-dropping-easter-packaging-2017/

Someone is about to lose credibility. I noted last week in Asda, not one Easter Egg is so named on the packaging. They're all now named "chocolate eggs" or just "eggs". The only Easter Eggs still so called were ones produced and exported from Europe, found in Aldi. Where they are not infected by the PC excess that has so undermined the British culture. (And NB I'm not British). Thorntons also stick to the original name too I believe. But overall it's one of those many silent removals of British traditions which goes unnoticed until the tabloids pick it up each year around Easter and then the UK manufacturers give some bland statement half denying the reason to excise Easter from Easter Eggs. If you look on Tesco's website on the link, Tesco are calling some of them Easter Eggs, but if you look at the image of the packets, none of the manufacturers, Cadbury etc, actually are labelling their products as that. It is indeed because the manufacturers don't want to lose sales in case anyone objects to a perceived religious link. You might as well ban the word Christmas from Christmas cards and merchandise. Barmy Britain.
NB after typing that I googled it and found this article, one of many. Which makes precisely the same points:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/12200926/Easter-quietly-dropped-from-Easter-eggs.html

Grow up!

great deal

I been and got my 24 in one purchase without any probs. Only prob is, like others say, they get eaten before easter and you have to buy all over again lol. Sat eating one now!!

Yup after today I also expressed an interest

They were on offer in my local Tesco expressed

They had 6 different eggs in my local extra store , it'll do for now

It might have worked with a mixed choice when I went to pay and it was transferred but the scanner only showed discount with 4 the same so I bought multiple 4's.

Remember you have to get 2x2. I stupidly tried to buy 6 expecting it to come to £4.50. Had to go and get 8 in the end.

It's in-store at tesco express store by the way. Up along the top shelf of one of the middle aisles in my local. :wink:

Don't forget teh 2x5 cream egg packs for £2 too and you've got Easter sorted.

Or if you belong to a large family , where everyone gets way more chocolate than they need each Easter !

Definitely went through the normal tills with the offer on a mixed batch this morning , i had to buy 16 , but had a mixture of 9 different varieties in varying quantities. Glad the self scanners hadn't been opened up when i got there at 7.30 . Seems odd how this is working in some stores and tills and not others though.

what a load of rubbish, it does not offend anyone. quit reading the daily mail and believing hateful lies.

According to the self scanner (not checked at tills) 4 must be the same to get 2 free. No mix and match when I tried. Ended up either loads though!

Spotted this offer in Tesco's today...These eggs are pathetically small.....Only buy these if your children are exceptionally naughty !!

Picked mine up in Chelmsford today, not all in the Easter aisle but scattered around the store as well, no mini eggs , but otherwise all good m thank you .

They were on offer instore yesterday bought 4 for £3. You lucky people not having the offer kick in should be going to customer services to get your double the difference back for the overcharge, making them free!

Picked up eight eggs for £6 in Norwich express on Unthank Road. Waiting in my hall to be taken to Benjamin foundation tomorrow.

It in store at Longton store as friend stocked up for all her grandkids this afternoon xx

They weren't on offer at Gateshead, unless it's changed since the early hours (before 1am) of this morning.

I can confirm they're on offer at Hednesford in store :smiley:

Seen them today in store for this deal. So even if they dont have the deal just test by scanning 4 and they should work.

I ordered mine online as was going to go into store but someone mentioned this was online only.ill be peed off if it is in store aswell cos it's just cost an extra £4 to click and collect because my basket total wasn't £40

So is the offer on instore?? I told my friend about it, so she went to the Southport store and they weren't on offer? And staff didn't know what she was on about?? Can some one plz clarify if this offer is genuine?

I just got 12 eggs for £9 in-store.

​not at all. you have to buy 4 to get them at .75p

I'm pretty sure Tesco and my Dentist are in cahoots together against me with these deals....and the mens clothing companies to make me buy larger sizes!! :wink:

Maybe just online where there is a limit of 20 on how many you can order and have to order other stuff for delivery. Also fingers crossed that they have the ones you ordered and don't come broken as you would have to give quantities of 4 back to get the sets of 4 at 75p each instead of £1.50 each.

Very nice price, ordered 4 and got 4 are free, hot thanks.

I also wondered why Flake eggs have suddenly disappeared in recent times and was discussing this with a friend that has a family member who is a reliable source. They checked with them and they said that since Kraft/Mondulez purchased Cadburys a few years back they had been tweeking the recipe of their products slightly by using cheaper ingredients than was traditionally used before hand. There has been a lot of media coverage on this and Kraft/Mondulez/Cadburys have denied that the recipe has been changed, which I presume they can stand by because it is just the actual quality of ingredients that have. This has been obvious as although I still buy their chocolate the taste and texture is different in recent times than it used to be and isn't as nice either. They said the Flake has been a little more difficult to change because of its crumbly texture which the cheaper products cannot replicate and therefore costs more to produce which is why they have pulled it from the cheaper Easter range. I'm not sure if the larger eggs are still available but the medium range are certainly not around anymore. As I say this is only what I have been told by a friend but they have advised that it has come from a very reliable source.

not valid instore...just been to TESCO...offer not coming up at till... :disappointed: ...

Thanks op and just taken it over the 1400!

Not on offer till today 27th.

not valid in store, apparently. I just had to leave 12 at the self service tills :-( the sales assistant apologised and suggested I click+collect though.
edit: could be because I bought 3 of each type of egg I wanted, rather than 4 of each.

Gutted no Cadbury Flake option!

hey how have the easter eggs in the post not melted in here.its absolutely smoking hot :sunglasses:

​we had 8 on offer, so I purchased one of each

I can order this tonight and be charged less tomorrow right?

Only 4 varieties in my local I think , which ties up with the offer that was posted on here at the time.
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/smarties-kit-kat-rolo-aero-medium-easter-eggs-half-price-75p-tesco-2617922

Voted hot, simply because I'm hoping it gives that tw@ Jamie Oliver a heart attack.

YUM YUM chocolate who doesnt love a great easter egg post.heat from me :innocent:

Great find and I'm sending some heat with it, but can someone please tell me how long as a medium Easter egg been 1 bar or 1 bag, I thought a small was 1 bar, medium was 2 bars, large 3 bars and so on............:neutral_face:

Best deal was 2 years ago. Same Tesco b2g2 free, but Checkout smart chipped in so ended up getting the four eggs for about 30p.
Might have filled my boots on that occasion with a few accounts.

Thanks op.

I wish I had known before I bought 10 £1 eggs in Asda last night.

I still have more eggs to buy so I will be at Tesco.

Thanks. Makes it cheaper to try and hopefully make this https://www.facebook.com/YummyGreatFood/posts/2176709015886992

Hahahahahahaha, YUM YUM!, this is back fir this year toooooo I see?, lol.

My 'batch' (if/when I get them), will ONLY be for me though mind?.

I luvvvvvvvvvvvvv me chocolates, hehehehehe.

Shhhhhhhh!, don't tell anyone ..... dwl!. ;-)

Last year these were on same offer but eggs weighed 168grammes now down by 40grammes so definitely smaller but then again they are all smaller no matter where you buy from so they're ok for price.

I much prefer cadburys , the smarties egg (only one I tried from 75p) one tastes like smart price chocolate melted into a shape of an egg no flavour what so ever! Cadburys is so yum! I scoffed 2 median eggs in 1 day but the smarties one is still here!

The only way you would know this, is if you work for Tesco cause this is not advertised any where. you may find it will be buy 2 get 2 free also.

Cheers I will check but I will doubt they will have the range , probably just 3 or 4

Any with cups as I need those

I bet these won't be on offer at the little Tesco stores so il miss out once again

​there was more than 4 that were on offer.

works out the same as the current 75p offer that's on.

Brilliant, been waiting for this as buy lots to donate to local charity collection. Good for food bank donations too. :innocent:

Reasonable deal. Buttons eggs actually seem better value than buying buttons in a packet.
Some of the others have a bit of markup for being eggs, as you'd probably expect.

Careful you shouldn't be calling them Easter eggs, you will be offending people :confused:

These are like small eggs now and not medium but I'd still end up buying them

Same ones £1 each in morrisons bought yesterday

Thanks

Thanks op :smiley:

It's almost as if Tesco know that and remove the promotions shortly before Easter :neutral_face:

I've done a similar thing, including the Halloween chocolate that I buy!

Did the BOGOF deal last week - what a con - these are the old "small" eggs - very disappointed!!

Egcellent

If I get them now I will end up eating them all before giving them to the kids before easter. :disappointed:

Another good deal from Tesco, personally prefer them half price as you can buy the exact quantity you need , but 4 for £3 is still a £1 saving on Asda or Morrisons price.

Been waiting for this offer.
Need to buy 30 Easter eggs!
Cheers

Thanks that's me sorted ,great deal :smile:

Thanks op x

Thanks op

Better than range bought over a week ago as prefer cadburys eggs.

Same as when they were 75p last week then.
