EASTER is just days away which means the chocolate Easter egg deals are in full swing.
Retailers have been battling it out to offer the best deals on chocolate Easter eggs since the beginning of the year.
So we’ve scoured the shelves to find the cheapest place to buy Easter eggs this week, here’s where to find your favourites.
Bear in mind there are serval types of branded Easter eggs in stores which vary in both taste and size, and some of these will affect the price.
It’s worth deciding exactly what type of chocolate you want and what size you need before heading into stores to look for the best price.

Asda also has a deal on larger Cadbury Easter eggs.

The Easter eggs hold anywhere between 210g to 340g of chocolate including the hollow eggs and extra treats.
Lindt
Lindt is a luxury chocolate brand so you can expect to pay a little more for Lindt Easter eggs but that doesn’t mean you can’t find a good deal.
Sainsbury’s shoppers can nab a large Lindor milk chocolate Easter egg for £7.50 with a Nectar card instead of the original price of £10.
Most other retailers have the same egg for around £10 but surprisingly Ocado has the same eggs on a £6 deal.
It’s worth checking if your local Iceland has any of these as last month it had a £5 deal on the eggs though they have now sold out online.
Nestle
Online retailer Discount Dragon currently has the best deal on Nestle Easter eggs.
The retailer currently has a pack of eight Nestle Milkybar white chocolate Easter eggs for just 10p.
Usually, the white chocolate treats retail for £3, so that means you are making a very decent saving of £2.90 with this deal.
You can also pick up KitKat, Yorkie, Rolo, Munchies and Smarties Easter eggs in Iceland for £2.50 if you buy them in groups of four.
Mars
If you like Mars chocolates Sainsbury’s has some of the best deals.
The Large M&M’s Crispy Milk chocolate Easter egg is £3.25 while prices in Asda for KitKat and Skittle start at £4.50.
The Skittle Easter eggs were down to just £3 in Tesco last month so it’s worth keeping an eye out for deals there too.
Galaxy
Galaxy Easter eggs may be tough to find though Sainsbury’s currently has extra large eggs priced at £5.25.
Iceland has a slightly better price with the 252g box going for £5.
The Galaxy Minstrels Easter egg was priced around £3.50 in most stores though it has sold out online already.
If you’re willing to wait there is a chance some of these Easter eggs may drop further in price after the bank holiday.
Note that some supermarkets charge extra for delivery, so it may be cheaper to include the selection box in your weekly shop or to pick them up in-store.
