[CLOSED] The great Easter Egg hunt

I've just been to 'Wilkinsons' in St Helens and they are selling easter eggs for £2.79 each, but if you buy three they are only a fiver, making them just under £1.70 each. I thought this was pretty good compared to most of the shops.
These eggs are the "teen eggs" size, i.e. Malteser egg comes with a chocolate egg and two bags of maltesers, or a flake egg comes with a chocolate egg and two flakes.
They also do the larger size eggs at 2 for £6 which is also pretty good.
Has anyone found any cheaper ?

(Hope this is in the right place, it's my first ever post !!)

  • Im sure that asda had them extremly cheap during the run up to easter last year. may have just been a local thing though.
    Could be worth waiting a little longer

    Last year it was a 'I can sell them cheaper than you' fest. Every single retailer of these buy 3 for £x tried to do them cheaper than everyone else.

    I shall wait and see what happens.
