Major supermarket slashes prices of Cadbury, Nestle and Lindt Easter eggs
SHOPPERS are already stocking up on their favourite Easter eggs but one retailer is going above and beyond after slashing prices.
Tesco is offering customers a major discount on fan-favourite Easter eggs, including on classics like Malteasers and Cadbury and luxury brands like Lindt.
But, not all shoppers will benefit from the bargain covering 20 different products.
The retailer is offering the chance to save up to 31 per cent on selected Easter eggs this year – some scanning for as little as £1.35.
Tesco tells shoppers: “Opt for luxury with offers on Lindt, Tesco Finest, Thorntons and Raffaello, or spread the cost of family favourites and pick up brand-name staples including Maltesers, M&M, Smarties and Milky Bar.”
Depending on which Easter egg customers choose, they can save as much as £5.50 per egg.
The offer open only to Clubcard holders has discounts ranging from 10 per cent off to 31 per cent.
The Raffaello White Chocolate Easter Egg that is usually £17.50 will be just £12 under the deal until April 21.
Meanwhile the Lindt XL Salted Caramel Egg will have £5 off its usual £20 price tag.
Even the more budget-friendly Easter eggs carry discounts under the special offer.
The classic large Lindt Gold chocolate bunnies in white, milk, and dark chocolate usually £6.75 each will be priced down to £5.50.
And packs of eggs such as the five-pack of Cadbury creme eggs, Cadbury oreo chocolate eggs and the 12-pack of Tony’s Chocolonely Egg-stra special eggs will have 50p off.
Fans of a popular Cadbury egg will be pleased to know that a dupe being sold by Tesco is also included in the offer.
The retailer’s own Raisin and Biscuit Chocolate Egg is almost half the price of the Dairy Milk Fruit and Nut Ultimate Egg from Cadbury.
The hollow Tesco egg contains raisins and biscuit pieces in the milk chocolate shell and can be picked up for £10.
In comparison Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Fruit and Nut Inclusions Ultimate Egg is £15.

Easter egg bargains are set to be extra popular this year after warnings that prices are set to soar.
The price of a security-tagged bag of Cadbury Mini Eggs has already been described as “laughable”
But shoppers are still eager to see what new products are coming to the shelves this year.
Waitrose has caused a storm with a croissant-shaped offering while M&S fans are rushing to get a Scrummy Bunny Munch Tin.
