    I've never really done easter eggs. My two sons have always got them from their grand parents, and I don't really like chocolate so I never bought them right from them being small, so they've never expected them from me. That was a good call on my side I think!

    I bought 12 when the 3 for 1 off was on in tesco.

    So we had 12 eggs for £10 instead of £30 and had a £6.50 tesco voucher so only actually spent £3.50. :D

    I bought my boys and girl books, which they loved. My mum bought them eggs and I won two in a special school raffle.

    I bought immediate family plus nephew, so ended up getting 11 :eek:. However, all were on BOGOF, except nephew who got a £1 chocolate buttons and so total cost was £16.
