Please Help! Tony's Easter egg urgently needed!

15 replies

DianaTaverner · 29/03/2024 12:38

For reasons too tedious to detail (autistic relative, personal incompetence). I really need one of these (red milk chocolate one not salted caramel) in time for Sunday but everywhere I've looked has sold out.

Please, has anyone seen them on sale recently anywhere on the Tube network?

Thanks, that's a great fallback.

I bought one yesterday, Sainsbury's, Norfolk. Tonnes in there. I'm guessing you've tried your local Sainsbury's?

Oxfam shops sell Tony’s. Are there any of those nearby?

Yes, both my big local Sainsbury's but thanks, that gives me hope that another London Sainsbury's will have them.

I tried Balham but they only had bars not eggs, but thanks for the idea.

I'm very outing my location but there's a shop called Simply Fresh on Roman Road, 10 minutes walk from Bethnal Green station. They had these when I went in on Wednesday. Might be worth phoning them to check before you travel over?

Did you check the balham Waitrose and the sainsburys at tooting Broadway? Also getir or Uber eats delivery might have it.

Success! Easter has been saved.

All the Waitroses and Sainsbury's in South London (were out, but Whole Foods Clapham Junction came up trumps. And in fact they'd obviously over-ordered so they'd cut their price!

Many thanks all for your help.

They’re all out local Asda has left! Presumably because we’re northerners and too tight to pay a tenner for an Easter egg!

We were just on our way to the big Clapham Junction Asda when we gave Whole Foods a go. TBH we've probably spent a tenner on tube and bus fares looking for it today, let alone the egg. But worth it.

Glad you found one - I'm in East Sussex but I was going to offer you the secret one I have stashed away for DH. Your need is definitely greater than his!
