A musician has expressed their dismay over the price of Cadbury Mini Eggs in Sainsbury's. JUDVH, a British artist, was outraged by the current cost of the chocolate and shared a video on TikTok about his findings. He shared that the price of a 270g of Cadbury Mini Eggs is £4.85 in the supermarket chain.
Now that the festive season is over, Easter chocolate has started to return to supermarket shelves – but Mini Eggs have reappeared with a bigger price tag than fans were expecting. Speaking in his video, JUDVH said: “Cadbury’s and or Sainsbury’s you ill mannered troglodytes £4.85 for a 270g of Mini Eggs.
"Once upon a time these were Lindt prices and even they’ve only just about gone up to £6. Maximum these should be £1 to the 100 grams. Your inflation does not add up. "To add insult to the injury, you’ve labelled this a family pack, a family pack of rats. Whose family are you feeding with 270g of Mini Eggs?.
"It would be wise of you to heed these warnings, Sainsbury’s. Your little profit margin is not worth this wrath, fix it.". The TikTok video has garnered 512,000 views, 76,000 likes and 1,451 comments. One user commented: “They’re in Tesco for £1.65 on clubcard, that’s the only way I’m buying them.”.
A second added: "Something I used to buy for £1 during the pandemic?? Come off itttt." Another user raged: "I’m sickened every time we do a shop!! Everything is getting smaller and smaller, some things don’t taste the same but the prices are just getting higher and higher.".
