No.

Good excuse not to buy them.

Wrecking them with cheaper ingredients AND effectively putting the price up.

I'm off sugar anyway.

No I haven't.

The deal with 5 in a box would appear to be that you give them more money for less product. They hope you won't notice, but you have.

That's capitalism for you.

Enjoy your eggs.

I'm led to believe that the chocolate chickens producing them are working to rule.....

I could be wrong, it's been suggested that the cheap chemical laden corn they are fed is interfering with their oval laying, or I could have misheard, is that ovulation?

Your hands are getting too much exercise.

Wagon wheels were the thin end of the wedge, when they started making them smaller and you only noticed when you got bigger....

They'll go up.

They do this. Drop the price to start with so nobody complains too much, then when everyone is used to the new size, the price goes up again.

Besides, by using cheaper, lower quality ingredients, they will be making more money (per egg) as well.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

Cadburys put so much sugar and fat in their 'chocolate' its hardly recognisable as such. Ditto Galaxy. I think I'll spend my money on some Hotel Chocolat and eat it slowly.

I'm not quite up to date on my chocolate egg etiquette. Forgive me.

However it would appear you are, so I don't know why you asked the question... unless you work for the chocolate egg marketing board.

Do you?

5 eggs for 32p each or 6 eggs for 33.3333r pence each (depending upon where you purchase them) Are they the same size?

Either way, I don't buy them.

Did I interrupt?

I'm off to look for more sex-based threads.

Goodbye

To be fair the price of cacao beans has shot up, but I think I'd prefer to pay more for decent chocolate than less for something that tastes like lard.

I'd agree with this. Nice chocolate is just so much nicer once you get used to trying it until you find the right one

Marks and Spencers do some lovely chocolate bars. Salted Caramel is my fave.

Crème Eggs are surprisingly easy to make at home anyway, ok they won't taste identical and probably won't be egg shaped either, but they still make a great substitute.

This has been going on for about the last 6/7 years - at least.

Retail scams 1 + 2.

1) same product, price up.

2) same price, smaller product

I'm mostly addicted to the sugar so I may as well have bought a bag of Silver Spoon and cut out the middle man!
