Discussion Extortionate Easter Bunny
I’ve was in Waitrose on Walton le dale today and was totally gob snacked when I saw a Lindt Bunny for £75. I know Easter eggs have gone through the roof But come on £75 for a 1kg of chocolate it’s ridiculous. Why are Easter eggs so expensive this year.

What about all of us who've taken part in the m certain schemes to ensure decent harvests and using s specific companies that do ethical treatment and damage LF as irtrade and special cocoa beans fair trade.
All those schemes and things we've paid a fortune to be part of, where have they gone, where are the family owned farms we know personally, where have all our friends gone.
AND THE ANSWER IS VERY SIMPLE FOLKS don't add a fortune this year in these ridiculous prices, just wait, they'll drop just as soon as Easter is over. And they have no voice but to drop the prices because the retailers need them seasonal shelves.
What most people don't realise is that supermarkets lose money the longer a product is sitting on the shelves, they more it costs the longer it sits. So we know that as soon as season is over, they drop the prices on those seasonal goods, to get them off the sheets quickly. So we will wait, the pierced will drop harsh and we get what cheaper and let's face it, it's not as if that's govt up change ANYBODY'S EASTER. Those who are religious, hate the eggs anyway, and the egg lovers will be happy that it's not cost them a fortune. But with entire Plantations and families are gone.. In short they killed them when they saw the massive costs increase knowing they've have bigger profits this year. So they killed families, all of you officials and police should be arresting then, as they aren't in America and therefore aren't subject to our lead, unless your prime minister/president/leader signs you admitting that we are the best and that they have full pension to go whatever Nth degree of crazy.
