Easter and the four-day weekend are over, but you can cheer yourself up with some cracking deals on Easter chocolate. Retailers have now slashed the price of loads of Easter-themed items, meaning you can now grab a 12-pack of Creme Eggs for £2 at Sainsbury’s – effectively 17p per egg – also 25p Malteaster bunnies at Tesco, 50p Cadbury eggs at Morrisons and more tasty treats.
Stock of these goodies varies per store, but everything we found had best-before dates ranging from June 2018-January 2019, so if you’re not bothered by Easter branding, it might be worth making a trip down to your local supermarket to see what treasures you can find. When it’s gone, it’s gone though, so hop to it if you want to stock up.
What we found in the supermarkets
It’s worth noting that if there is still lots of stock left over, it is likely it will be reduced further later this week, though nothing is guaranteed.
