Tesco slash the price of leftover Easter eggs by 75% and prices start from 18p

With Easter done and dusted, supermarkets are cutting the price of Easter eggs in a bid to get rid of their excess stock.

The latest retailer to reduce the price of its seasonal treats is Tesco - which is currently offering 75% off popular chocolate eggs from today.

Meaning chocolate lovers can pick up a delicious egg on their next essential shop for less than a quid.

Among the reduced Easter eggs are smaller options from Cadbury, which are now sold for 18p - down from 75p.

The supermarket chain has also slashed the price of larger Easter eggs from £4 to £1, saving shoppers £3.

The cut-price chocolates were originally spotted by eagle-eyed shoppers on social media, with one person saying: "Easter eggs for 18p at Tesco was dangerous..."

While another said: "get yourself to @Tesco and treat yo selfffff."

Someone else wrote: "18p Easter eggs in Tesco... They told me to buy a crate but I told them I can’t as I’d eat them all."

Annoyingly, the bargain Easter eggs aren't available to buy online - so you'll have to pop into your nearest Tesco if you want to get your hands on one.

There are currently around 4,000 Tesco stores in the UK. You can use the online store finder to track down your nearest Tesco supermarket.

But Tesco isn't the only retailer slashing the price of its leftover Easter eggs.

Deals sharing site hotukdeals.com recently reported that Morrisons has dropped the price of Easter eggs to 25p, including Cadbury Dairy Milk Freddo Treasures eggs.
