Emilly ... quick, don't wait! Buy at least 10 ... before it is too late!! And then ask if you can pre-order them for next January 2009, just in case!

sort of relevant -

I buy my Easter eggs online from a specialist shop that sells Icelandic food - they are preeeeeeeeeeetttttttttttttttyyyyyyyy spectacular and spectacularly expensive as well.

Noi Sirius is the best brand - the sizes range from 90g to 900g!
The eggs are hollow and stuffed with all kinds of sweeties and confectionery (also all from Noi Sirius).

It's very exciting to receive in the post. Not so exciting when you see the bill

If you mean Iceland then don't answer ...

But if you mean some great online shop in Iceland, then please tell us more and post a link!

Thanks

PS: I have to get my Easter Eggs sent over to Germany from England

Easter eggs were in Morrison's in Wellington, Shropshire on Friday 28th December. Admittedly it was only limited to Cadbury's Cremme eggs of assorted sizes.

I then happened to be in Tesco (about 2 miles away from Morrisons) on the 4th of January and they have a much better selection. They were along the same shelves as the reduced overstocked Christmas chocolates.

'Emilly ... quick, don't wait! Buy at least 10 ...'

Jeez, you want me to get poisoning Einmoto

Like most people, I'll be looking for the best bargains, when I think the time is right to buy them, not when the shops try to temp me.

(aside)
Surprising sometimes have far ahead some people plan. I'm booking secretary of local village hall, I have two bookings for 2009 and one for 2010. (/aside)

I was told today of a shop in Bristol, the same shop name as in my original post, that had their Easter Eggs displayed next to the toys before Christmas. Must be confusing for the little ones, and the Easter around at the same time.

But what if there is a shortage? Imagine your children crying when they don't get their easter eggs in 2009. Imagine what the neighbours would say about you? Imagine the long-term consequences of your children not having an Easter Egg at Easter. Chocolate is healthy ... Long live chocolate!!

PS: My other job is selling Confectioners for a leading supermarket

The main person I have to buy an Easter Egg for is Me! (and the 2 grandsons)...well, no one else is going to buy me one, my partner has too much scotch blood in him to buy me one - I'm a big girl, I don't need children's Easter Egg' - oh yes I do.

I've already done myself out of for valentine's Day by insisting I don't believe in it - me and my big mouth!

Bah!Humbug!I saw the first TV ad for eggs on New Years Day.Damned retailers trying to hurry me through my life...

Wasn't it ponchous pilot who was hiding in the giant choc easter egg and who jumped out of the giant easter egg to supprize Jesus on the third of January? or did I get the whole thing muddled up Anyhow, about this easter bunny, didn't they do away with that because of the mixi?

Einmoto - I am indeed talking about the country.

The supermarket jokes never get old

I'll post the link on your PS if you don't mind.

No, that was in 'The Treasure of the Sierra Madre'

"We don' need no steenkeeng bunnies! We got hens!"

Only just found this thread, but thought I should mention Chilcompton Co-Op in Somerset had Milky Way Easter Eggs (in mugs) on sale Saturday December 22nd.

Unless Mars were combining and the Easter with eggs inside Christmas mugs, you have the record for spotting the earliest Easter Eggs 2008 Radox.

Or the latest 2007, I didn't check the sell-by date.

lol i would not complain if we got the spring weather early as the eggs are lol

In fairness, it's all the same really... Fertility, death... life cycles... chocolate...

for the record, my favourite ever easter egg was tiny but it came with a pink My Little Pony egg cup with it's own spoon I still use it

Actually, I meant to say Milky Bar not Milky Way ,oops
