Customers have shared their confusion after spotting Easter eggs on supermarket shelves before New Year's Eve, including at Morrisons, Tesco and Asda

Customers have expressed their surprise on social media after discovering Easter eggs and hot cross buns gracing the shelves of supermarkets such as Morrisons, Tesco, and Asda before the ball has even dropped on New Year's Eve. Despite Easter Sunday not arriving until April 20, festive chocolates are already making an appearance.

Shoppers have complained after seeing Easter eggs already out on supermarket shelves. Easter Sunday is four months away, falling on 20 April next year, but chocolate eggs and hot cross buns have already been spotted for sale in shops including Morrisons,

Shoppers bemused as Easter eggs hit shop shelves before New Year’s Eve - ‘They’ve not even managed to shift the Christmas chocolates yet,’ remarked one customer.
