This can't be right





I took this today (30th December, yes DECEMBER. It's not even New Year yet) in Tesco. It's on the aisle with the Christmas stuff they're trying to sell off. In fact it's opposite the Christmas puddings they have left. No, your eyes are not lying, they are f*cking Easter eggs. In December!

Huh, I guess it's small comfort that America isn't the only that starts trying to sell the next holiday. Granted there is Valentine's Day and St.Patrick's day in between. But I was hearing Christmas muisc, cards and decorations two weeks before Halloween this year. ARG!

On the plus side, one can never have enough mini eggs.

I saw Valentine cards the day after boxing day.

Oooh, reminds me of when I worked at Cadburys...where you start seeing those in November and you see selection boxes in July.

You may find, unfortunately, that this stock is actually last years stock. I know in Australia, they do this to move the stuff out before it gets out of date.
Where I used to work, at X-Mas time, all the old xmas stock would be put on display *months* before xmas, even way before the new stock was on its way.

What? Seriously? Please, god, tell me you're joking.

Easter eggs at Christmas???

The world has reached new levels of fuckedupness *nods*

Wow, at least the stores here locally are doing Valentines Day first *grins* Every year they put this stuff out sooner and sooner I swear.

*drools*

why am I always in the wrong place at the wrong time?

Cream eggs and mini eggs should be available all year round in my opinion. You can just never get enough!
