Default Guess whats in the shops already !

Daughter just came home with some mini Easter Eggs... apparently there is a whole section of them at our Local Coles... not the big ones. Red Tulip Peppermint "Easter Eggs" it says on the packet. She bought them just to prove the point.

Not sure whether they where there before Xmas or not... it could be the little ones are there all the Time. However these ones definitely say Easter on the packet.

If they are rolling out Easter already, then this years has to be a record for being early.

They do it every year. Creme Eggs, mini eggs etc come out in Jan and go again at Easter.

Yeah, local coles last night had heaps of easter eggs out. Its january every year because I always think why the heck would you buy easter eggs 4 months early in an aussie summer They would look like melted turds by time easter came.
