Just spotted these in Tesco's. AIBU to even be making this post? I mean it's not even next year yet!

Saw it on TikTok a couple of days ago, I guess someone must buy them.

I saw Easter eggs in Sainsbury's on Christmas Eve.

It's ridiculous

Absolutely crazy

Double VAT until Shrove Tuesday would put an end to this I am sure.

Well, it's only 3 months away, what did you expect? The Christmas stuff is in the shops from September, so it's only fair that Easter gets the same treatment! 😉

I work in retail, I put eggs out about 2 weeks ago. Ludicrous but it is a seasonal aisle so they can't leave it empty

It feels a bit early to have proper Easter Eggs out but I must admit I’m always pleased when Mini Eggs go back on sale again!!

I also work in retail. The easter eggs were in the warehouse before Christmas, we've just shelved them.

It's just a way to maximise profits. If they only went out two weeks before Easter, they'd all get sold. Putting them out now means that everyone will buy them, eat them and then need to rebuy before Easter.

And we will still get customers dashing in at 9.55 on the Saturday before Easter, asking if we've got any Easter eggs left (we won't have).
