A MAJOR supermarket is about to ax one of the cheapest Easter egg deals on the market.

Sainsbury’s recently reduced the price of all large Easter eggs to just £4 for all Nectar cardholders.

The wide range included Cadbury and Galaxy, but shoppers have just hours to get their hands on the deal as it ends today.

Before the offer, most extra large chocolate Easter eggs cost £6 and this is the price if you buy the chocolate eggs without the Nectar card.

Here’s a list of all the chocolate Easter eggs included in the deal:

Cadbury Mini Eggs Chocolate Easter Egg 232g
Giant Cadbury Easter Egg with Dairy Milk & Caramel Bars 245g
Cadbury Creme Egg Giant Easter Egg 235g
Galaxy Milk Chocolate Extra Large Easter Egg 268g
Cadbury Giant Easter Egg With Swirling Milk Chocolate & Orange Bars 241g
Smarties Dinosaur Milk Chocolate Giant Easter Egg 226g
Smarties Sea Splash Milk Chocolate Giant Easter Egg 226g
Giant Cadbury Easter egg with flake bars 231.5g
KitKat Chunky Milk & White Chocolate Giant Easter Egg 230g
Maltesers Bunnies Easter Egg 236g
M&M’s Giant Milk Chocolate & Peanut Easter Egg 313g
KitKat Bunny Milk Chocolate Giant Easter Egg 234g

By comparison, extra-large Easter eggs, also known as “giant” Easter eggs, usually cost around $5 to $11.

But if you can’t get to a store before this deal ends, it’s not all bad news.

The retailer is launching another Nectar card deal that allows customers to buy premium Easter eggs at a discount of up to 37%.

Below are the available Taste the Difference Premium eggs that will be available with nectar prices:

Taste the difference Honeycomb Corn Crunch, 230g – now £5 (£8 without nectar)
Taste the Difference Dark Chocolate Orange, 230g – now £5 (£8 without nectar)
Taste the Difference Latte Macchiato, 230g – now £5 (£8 without nectar)
Taste the difference Golden Blonde Egg, 230g – now £5 (£8 without nectar)
Taste the Difference Milk Chocolate Egg, 150 g – now €3.50 (€4.50 without nectar)
Taste the difference White chocolate egg, 150 g – now €3.50 (€4.50 without nectar)
Taste the difference Dark chocolate egg, 150 g – now €3.50 (€4.50 without nectar)
It is important to note that all eggs come in different sizes, but that does not change the price of the Nectar card.

You can also buy more traditional branded Easter eggs. Top deals on delicious branded eggs include:

Cadbury Mini Eggs Large Shell Egg 193g – now £2 (£3.25 without nectar)
Smarties Large Egg 188g – now £2 (£3.25 without nectar)
Celebrations Large Egg, 220g – now £2 (£3.25 without nectar)
Galaxy Minstrels Large Egg, 234g – now £2 (£3.25 without nectar)
Maltesers Large Egg, 200g – now £2 (£3.25 without nectar)

The deal is available in stores and online and runs from February 28 to March 5.

You may have to go to a few different stores if you’re looking for a specific Easter egg.

Nectar Card: The Three Easy Ways to Get One

How does the loyalty program work?

Nectar cardholders can collect points while shopping in-store and online.

You’ll receive one loyalty point for every £1 you spend at Sainsbury’s.

You’ll also get one point for every £1 you spend on fuel bought at Sainsbury’s petrol stations. You can also collect points from hundreds of partners, including Esso and eBay.

The Nectar Card also gives customers exclusive discounts on hundreds of products, just like a Tesco Clubcard does.

You can register and download an e-Nectar Card by downloading the app on your smartphone.

You can also sign up in store or register on their website.

All you have to do is swipe the card every time you shop and points will be added to your account so you can get cash on future purchases.

Each point is effectively worth 0.5 cents, which means you need 500 points to get a €2.50 discount.

Tesco launched a similar deal last week, with a selection of more than 20 large Easter chocolates dropping in price to £2 for all Clubcard users.

Similarly, Morrisons has reduced the price of its Easter eggs to 75p if you have a More card.

Remember, it’s always good to shop around to make sure you’re getting the cheapest deal.

The closer we get to Easter, the more likely it is that other retailers will compete to be the cheapest in an attempt to get your money’s worth.

You can use shopping comparison tools such as Google Shopping and Trolley.co.uk to compare the cost of items from different sellers.

Also keep in mind that there’s a chance you might get a different offer in-store than online, so keep your eyes peeled.
