Shoppers have been left rather bemused and annoyed as it would appear there is no time to rest after Christmas - because Easter has already hit supermarket shelves!
After Christmas, sometimes a well-deserved break is in order to get over the excessive amount of food and drink that has been consumed during the festive December days.
There's a good chance that a lot of people are still working through the leftovers from the big day because after all, there's no point letting anything go to waste.
But sometimes, chocolate can be an Achilles heel, and what is heaven while eating it, can come back to haunt us as we're sat there unable to move after consuming too much.
In those circumstances, the last thing that we want to see is chocolate in the stores as far as the eye can see... But some places have done just that.
With Easter just around the corner (if the corner is four months long), stores are already lined with Easter Eggs in an effort to tempt customers for the next Christian holiday.
It's safe to say, the decision to move on from Christmas to Easter so quickly has not sat very well with some shoppers, and they have taken to social media to air their complaints.
One person wrote: "@Tesco, going big on Easter Eggs 4 days after Christmas Day (photo taken in your Bethnal Green [UK] store this afternoon) is…. Well, it’s just p***ing everybody off. Any thoughts?"
Rupa Huq, a Member of Parliament in the UK wrote: "It’s still definitely December and well within the #12DaysOfChristmas but Tesco Ealing Broadway shelves full of Easter eggs and bunnies as far as the eye can see?!"
Another person added: "Reese’s Easter eggs are on my local grocery store’s shelves. Are you f’ng kidding me?"
A fourth Twitter user concluded: "Christmas is over so the Easter Eggs are on the supermarket shelves."
Even the biggest chocolate lovers in the world must admit that seeing Easter Eggs on the shelves feels a bit premature... Or maybe having this wide array of chocolate on offer for months can only be seen as a positive?
