Please don’t pay these egregious prices. They are absolutely taking the piss here.
If we all hold the line, just on this one little thing, we can hold another new line on something more important next time.
Maybe eventually we can unite and fix our country.

Yeah nah. I’m literally boycotting this crap.
Thankfully my kids are old enough to understand we are not subscribing to this BS
No thank you very much.
I assumed it was just a ploy so they could offer 50% off next week.
Imagination Easter!
Gotta start somewhere. Enough is enough!
They just start it high so that when they take 40% off you feel like you getting a bargain even though it’s still over priced.
Get chocolate from Aldi
The cocoa price has also fallen almost 50% just this year, this year to date.
This is bullshit artistry.
Can’t make them 50% off if you don’t double the price
So to be clear, that’s $120 per kilo for shitty chocolate.
Yeah this might be the year for my 5 and 7 year olds to learn that the EB is a sham because I do not want to participate in this garbage.
$46?!?! 😯
Didn’t they used to be $2?
Don’t buy them?
That’s it, I’m going to start stealing
Ok ok. This is the second post of this. Went down my local and they’re all heavily discounted. Like $6.
Didn’t we have literally this post about three days ago?
Colesworths aren’t the only scammers here. A reminder that Lindt itself argued in court that its claims of being excellent quality chocolate was “exaggerated advertising, blustering, and boasting upon which no reasonable buyer would rely.”

Looks like we might be in the last year of the shortage, which has caused prices to go up so much. But it takes time to filter through
Simply don’t buy them.
The good news is we’ll all be eating less chocolate, so might not be topping the world’s fatty list for much longer…
Haighs chocolate bilbies til the day I die
Yeah nah our kids are getting 2 blocks of their favourite chocolate each. That’s expensive enough.
Everyone needs to boycott all Easter products at Coles & Woolworths. Even on sale. Purchasing them drives this behavior. Aldi products are great if you need eggs and bunnies for kids.
When I was a kid, Easter products would go on clearance after Easter until all stock was gone. I remember one year in the early 90’s when Cadbury cream eggs were 10c each at Woolworths after Easter. Now whatever remains after Easter gets slightly discounted or disappears off the shelves – these companies would rather dispose of the stock than sell it at a reduced price, lest consumers hold off buying until after Easter.
They’re going to keep fucking us if we let them.
You know this is the 200g one, right?
Here’s the plan, celebrate Easter two weeks after Easter, by then the prices will be slashed to normal amounts
Weren’t these $5 just a few years ago?
Let that shii rot on shelves.
Haighs have a great Easter range, and will deliver. They’re an Australian company based out of Adelaide. The Easter Bilby range also promotes conservation of native environments.
The only appropriate response is a total boycott. It’s highway robbery and we all need to avoid purchasing. It’s the only way they’ll learn, if ever.
Why buy them before Easter? The prices will drop after, then you can get your choccy fix
Its a fake price so they can “discount” it later.
