Shopping expert Sarah-Jane Outten from MyVoucherCodes.co.uk says, “These stats show that there is still a huge demand and appetite for Easter eggs and it’s interesting to see Cadbury top the charts for our most-loved top three. There is so much choice around these days that Easter is a wonderful time for all those chocoholics out there.
“It’s great to see people still want to buy eggs for their friends and family and I would always advise doing a bit of research beforehand to get a good deal. Supermarkets tend to have very good multi-buy offers for eggs and it’s always worth checking discount voucher websites to get a good deal.”
Here are five tips from Sarah-Jane to save money on buying Easter eggs this year:
- Compare prices across different retailers - Easter egg prices can vary significantly from one store to another. It’s a good idea to compare prices online across multiple shops to find the best deals. Some retailers may even offer price matching or promotions that others don’t.
- Buy in bulk or multi-buy deals - If you’re planning to purchase several Easter eggs, look for bulk deals or multi-buy offers. Many stores will offer a discount when you buy more than one, so you can stock up for less.
- Use discount codes and vouchers - Check websites such as MyVoucherCodes.co.uk for exclusive discount codes and vouchers for cheaper Easter eggs. You may find percentage-off deals, free delivery, and multi-buy discounts that can make a big difference to your total cost.
- Shop during sales events - Keep an eye on seasonal sales events such as Easter or end-of-season clearances. Many shops mark down their Easter products in the lead-up to the holiday, so shopping a little earlier can help you bag a bargain.
- Sign up for newsletters and loyalty schemes - Signing up for your favorite brand’s newsletter or loyalty schemes can provide access to early-bird offers and exclusive discounts. You may even receive special coupons or deals just for being a member.
