harveypup Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Took George for new school shoes today, nipped into M & S on the way to the bus and discovered that they sell a "gorgeous gooey egg" which is free range. Granted it is not Cadbury's chocolate but they are hen friendly and not half bad, what's more they are currently 3 for a quid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 oooh, thanks for this.

Lovemychooks Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Fantastic. I was looking at the Creme Eggs today and wanted one but won't touch them now because of the use of battery eggs. The M&S ones sound lovely.....might just have to nip out tomorrow and get one....so much for the diet !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strepsy Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 DD came out of school yesterday and told me that she'd already had a snack because her teacher gave them all 3 Cadbury's mini cream eggs each I didn't have the heart to tell her as we have been talking a lot lately about products with hidden battery eggs and she reads the labels on everything when she comes shopping with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I watched a play at my grandchildren's school on Monday and at the end, they were all given Creme Eggs - I also didn't have the heart to say anything........ I will apologise in here for my new avatar - I've been waiting ages to be able to use it since my son suggested it last summer.........Gina made it for me and I've waited for Easter........... It's just a bit of fun..... and a play on words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
