This is what the Sainsbury's voucher booklet that came through my door today said.

Since when is "Easter" a verb?!?

Much the same way as how one summers daaaaahling Grin

Oh god Sainsbury's

We'll be doing rabbit in Cumberland sauce. Boiled egg rolling after.

Pinky333777 · 06/03/2018 18:36

It caught your attention.
I'd say that's a job well done for Sainsbury's advertising dept. 😄

Such bollocks

ComtesseDeSpair · 06/03/2018 18:37

Dunno about the preposterous verbing, but my response to this question is always thus:

"Same as Jesus - going out Friday, coming back Monday."

If the summer one mentions holibobs (or however the fuck you spell it) then I am NEVER shopping there ever again.

They want us to make it a mini christmas

Not just a chocolate egg and be done with it...no, they want us all going 'all out'

What day does one 'Easter' exactly?

Rylanmakesmyheartsmile · 06/03/2018 22:12

Quite the opposite Pinky - it just makes me want to go to Tesco to buy all my Easter eggs this year!

Oh god. That's so cringey.

implantsandaDyson · 06/03/2018 22:32

What will you be gifting while you're Eastering? Wink

SistersOfPercy · 06/03/2018 22:58

Eastering is quite close to festering which coincidentally is what I shall be doing on the sofa with copious amounts of chocolate.

Ouch44 · 06/03/2018 23:07

Does it not say "are you Easter ready?" Now that would really want to stab someone in the eyes!

BlackeyedSusan · 06/03/2018 23:11

bought my milk free egg in aldi this year.

Theshittyendofthestick · 06/03/2018 23:12

The best thing about Easter is that you get a nice little holiday from work but without the massive expectations of Christmas. I refuse to do anything except eat chocolate and let the kids decorate an egg. Any other shop recommended paraphernalia can fuck right off! (Bah humbug!)

Fuck me with a butterchurn, YANBU.

Tell those orange-coloured, Jamie Oliver-loving twats to fuck off. I hate marketing wank-speak and Sainsbury's are one of the worst for it.
