Shoppers are seeing limited edition Cadbury Easter eggs on shelves
SHOPPERS are rushing to buy limited edition mini Cadbury Easter eggs, which are being sold exclusively from one retailer.
The Cadbury Oreo white chocolate eggs are on sale at Asda for just £2.25, down from £2.50.
The eggs are a variation on the popular Creme Egg flavor, except with white chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
Asda started stocking the sweet snacks in January, but some shoppers are only now realizing they are on sale.
One posted a photo of the five-pack on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook Group last night commented “never seen it before”.
The post has generated hundreds of likes and comments from foodies eager to score some for themselves.
One said “Quick! Run! Lol”, while another, tagging a friend, added: “I need these. Fancy a trip to Asda”.
Meanwhile, a third simply said: “I need these.”
Please note that we’ve seen the multipack on sale on Asda’s website for £2.25, but they may be more expensive in your local branch.
The shopper who posted about the multi-pack on the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK said they cost £2.50 in their nearby store.
We asked Asda how long the limited edition eggs will be available for sale and we’ll update this story when we hear back.
It’s not the first Cadbury chocolate to confuse shoppers in recent months.
B&M customers were excited to see a new Cadbury Twirl flavor hit the shelves earlier this week for just 29p.
The limited edition mint-flavored bar normally sells for 75 cents each, but has been flogged at a hugely reduced rate.
Shoppers could pick up four of the bars for £1, 25p each.
Cadbury has recently launched two new and ‘indulgent’ Dairy Milk flavours, also for chocolate lovers.
