Just been to Cadburys Outlet store in McArthur Glen Bridgend and they had 9kgs of mini eggs for £10.

oh man, there's a mouse in there!
(Thank goodness there's no store near me).
BBD is July 09 so you got 8 weeks or so, but i've eaten mini eggs about a year out of date and they tasted fine.
No they don't deliver, instore only i think
Are they like a cash and carry?

This'll probably be the first 'offer' they've ever had!! Prices in there are usually uninspiring at best.
Sweet. They have one in Cheshire Oaks. Only a couple of hours away, well worth it ;)

They had loads left when I went on Friday (18 kilos is bleeding heavy - had to be done though!!)
This'll probably be the first 'offer' they've ever had!! Prices in there are usually uninspiring at best.
Just what I was thinking. Hardly any bargains to be had, even their misshapes cost an arm and a leg... and why the obsession with Snapple?
Slippy floors too :)
those of you that have picked some up - how big is the box?? Wouldnt mind picking some of these up from East midlands tomorrow, however i need to know if they will fit in the panniers on my Bike (one for each of the two would be perfect!!)
Thanks!

They had about 40 boxes in the Livingston store when I was there on Friday

Think I might have to take a trip there today! :D

Plenty (20 boxes at a guess) @ Cheshire Oaks this afternoon. Thanks op great deal, the box seems endless, however I feel our watching what we eat has been blown out of the water this afternoon alone!!!

Bloody good price that is for mini-eggs - it's just a shame it's so far away otherwise I'd have been right in there. :(

You'll burn the calories from 18kg of chocolate off on the ride, right :suspect:
Dam good deal,if there was one closer to me i could jusity the petrol cost.

Damn! Why did I have to go to the MetroCentre on Saturday :(
For anyone in the area, there's a Cadbury store at Lakeside outlet park in Doncaster - no idea whether they have these in though.

Gutted, my parents were at Bridgend yesterday, although I dont think my dad's back could have handled getting that box into the car!

That was the excuse/plan...
Anyhow, it was chucking it down way too hard over the weekend to get there on the bike, so i didnt make it :( The nearest to me is Derby, and since the forecast is crap, i can't see me making it there before the rain stops (i.e. Friday!).
Such a shame, however many thanks to the OP for the salivations all over the weekend!! :thumbs:
Paul
P.s. the misses is soon to give birth to our second, and to be honest it's probably a good idea i didnt make it - she has a craving for chocolate anyhow (moreso than normal!!)

Best bargain ever IMO!
I picked up two boxes, very happy :D
You can smell them before you get the box open, its lovely!

U gonna eat 2 boxes before July 2009 ? :nuts:
Plenty of these in Livingston yesterday, no way I could get through them though.
U gonna eat 2 boxes before July 2009 ? :nuts:You could fill a freezer drawer and scoop a few out every now and again.
Hmmm.... is this worth a trip to Cheshire Oaks? My couch to 5k (http://www.c25k.com/) fitness drive was going so well!
Is it that good a bargain? £1 for 900g, surely you'd get that for £1.50-£2 in the shops (maybe during a special offer). I can't believe it'd really be £10 a kilo normally!
a 100g bag is usually just over a quid, or just under on special offer if you buy 2.
Thanks Chris, I had no idea (obviously)
They'll be all stuck together, giong white, misshapen rabit dropping looking efforts once you get to the bottom of the box!...well thats my experience of cadburys outlets, I vividly remember the dog turd shaped Wispers I bought from a outlet near York.
Loads of these at Freeport in Fleetwood

Stacks in Freeport Braintree. I had to indulge in a box.
Just need to offload some to friends and family before the kids demolish them all now.

I know alot of stuff in the cadburys shop is crap, but these are perfect.
I found a good way of getting them out now, use a mug and your hands dont get messy and easy to hold in your hand :thumbs:

The shop in Street Outlet Village has a new delivery coming in on Friday. Got a box being put back, will take it in the office and let people help themselves.
9 kilos of mini eggs= 44,000 calories, so walking constantly at 4mph for 5 days and nights solid should work that little lot off!! wonder if i would leave little walnut whips everywhere :thinking:

sorry to repost, but does anyone know where i can get these in Norfolk??? any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Got the last 2 from the York Store, bagged them up into 500g bags.

You could get one of these and submit a recipe for this site:

It doesn't look like there is a Mini-Egg on there. Check out the Creme Egg though! http://www.pimpthatsnack.com/project.php?projectID=302

This thread is the perfect example of a bargain nobody actually needs, but will go out of their way to drive two hours to track down :lol:
And yes, I was tempted.
I can't believe I actually stopped by Cheshire Oaks today without being dragged there by the Mrs. It was purely in the interest of verifying the bargain of course. I can report back that they had loads and taste yummy!

Anyone know if this deal is on at Cadbury World itself in Birmingham?

Couple of hundred boxes at Livingston still.
could anyone advise if they have seen any stock recently at either York or preferably Derby??
Thanks
Paul
at least 20 boxes left at the east midlands one (m1 j28) last night.
anyone been to the Swindon one yet?

See post 16 :thumbs:
(worth ringing to check they still have stock though)
Thanks for the heads up Arma UK. Picked up 4 boxes from M6 jn 28 last night. They only has a few boxes left, however apparently they have another 150+ arriving next week...
The guy was explaining - they had been told that these were excess eggs for the little easter bars that are usually produced, each with an egg on top. As i said to him - sounds like someone put an extra "0" on the end when they ordered... oops!!
Sounds like these might be about for a while though...
Thanks for the heads up OP - might end up going back for more in the next week or so!!
Paul
Oh right - I just assumed they were meant to be for Woolworths pick & mix or something, and for obvious reasons the order couldn't be finalised. No actual evidence to support that theory - just a guess.

Stopped in the Bridgend outlet earlier, and whilst I didnt see any mini eggs on offer they did have mini creme eggs. It was £12 for a 6kg box or £2 for 100 (bogof on bags of 50).
I'm feeling a little ill as I type this although melting a few of them over ice cream was pretty nice!
Was in the Livingston store and they still had a few boxes. That's a lot of chocolate to eat in 10 days!

Yeah was at the livingston store earlier today and they had a pallet of these out front, and the store room door was open revealing another pallet in the back!!! :lol:
I managed to resist, but the kids now have enough chocolate mini cream eggs to bankrupt me via dentist bills!!! :eek:
Oh no wait they get dental treatment for free, so i am saved and might get a new tv afterall. :D
Ooo... I might pick some of these up.
I saw the Mini Eggs at Dalton Park the other week when they had a Star Wars day on I took the kids too. I nearly popped a nut when I picked them up :lol:

As i said, just of Jn 28 of the M1 - http://www.eastmidlandsdesigneroutlet.com/ Cadbury Factory outlet
not sure what stock is about on these now, however has to be worth a phone call!!
