How to save money at Easter
Sun Savers Editor Lana Clements shares her tips on how to save cash at Easter…
Stock up on eggs – The best value Easter eggs typically sell out by the time the long weekend comes around so by in advance and stash in a cupboard so that you don’t get tempted to nibble.
Cut entertaining costs – If you are hosting family or friends over the holiday, consider asking them to bring a dish such as dessert, or a couple of bottles to cut costs. Use a price comparison site to find the lowest prices on the food and any other decorations or gifts that you need. Try PriceRunner or Trolley.co.uk.
Plan ahead – School holidays combined with gift can make Easter a pricey time of year, especially if you have children. Create a budget ahead of time and look for ways to keep it in check. You can go for free days out by making a scavenge hunts and limit the number of
Flash sales – Make a list of what you need for Easter and look out for flash sales or promotions from supermarkets on items that you need.

New chocolate releases
Fans were recently left divided after Mars Wrigley introduced a new flavour of an iconic treat.
The controversial new coffee Snickers flavour comes after a whopping two years of development and 13 different product prototypes.
But fans were not happy.
One fan commented: “Nooooooooo…. Disgusting”, under the chocolate’s launch post on Facebook.
Whilst another agreed, commenting, “Oh goodness no”.
Meanwhile, Cadbury has confirmed a new chocolate bar featuring an iconic biscuit is coming to shops within weeks.
Chocoholics were delighted to hear over the summer that the iconic treat maker was pairing up with Biscoff.
The bar will feature Cadbury Dairy Milk with pieces of caramelized shortbread Biscoff pieces.
The upcoming release of the new Biscoff bar comes as Cadbury has revealed what new eggs are set to land on supermarket shelves this Easter.
These are added to special-buy products that have been reduced in price.
How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don’t have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs…
Go own brand – if you’re not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you’ll save by going for the supermarket’s own brand bars.
Shop around – if you’ve spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it’s cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you’re getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers – supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they’ve been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars – most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you’ve got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
