Speaker 1 (00:00):
You've gotta love Easter. Everyone wants to be the Cadbury

(00:02):
Bunny because only he brings Cadbury cream eggs with their
delicious milk chocolate outside and creamy felling. Oh how good,
but look, good luck to you if you got any. Yeah,
we're right. What happened? Well, I left a bit of
Easter shopping to the last minute, because that's me, and
I thought, no, I'm right, like, we're all good. I'll
raced down. I did a little bit and when I

(00:24):
got down to the supermarket where the Easter egg section was,
and I'd seen it the week before, full of gear,
and I thought, right, I know what I need to do. Yeah.
I got there and there was nothing, only easter craft left,
and I'm like, what's going on. An old mate was
there stocking the shelves and whatever, and I said, mane,
where's the where are the Easter eggs? He goes, oh,
East is Iver. We're doing Mother's Day now, and I said, well,

(00:46):
fair call, I guess you've had them in the shop
since Christmas, so my bad for not being on the money.
Kind of one of them slightly fresh and not white,
but that's okay. So I'm like, oh, no. So I've
gone on literally the Easter egg hunt. Cue the Benny
Hill music. I'm going, this is ridiculous. I've never seen
this in my life. So I've wronged my girlfriend and
I'm like, have you been to the shops? Have you
got any Easter egg She's like, don't don't start me.

(01:07):
I've been to three supermarkets to try and get some
eggs and bits and pieces and there's nothing. And I'm okay.
So I was going down to see mum and she's like,
don't worry, she said. When you get here, she said,
just I'll have the kids and you go to the shops.
It wasn't that the most I've never been in a
frenzy on a Saturday at the shops like I did
at VICKI point and I've met this bloke there and

(01:28):
he's got his trolley looking just as amused as me.
He's from Maclay Island. He's caught the ferry over doing
the same thing as me. I've got I need a
few more things. I said, well, make good luck. I said,
there's nothing here and it was like, honestly, absolute mayhem, mayhem.
But one thing I did notice well with what was left,
was there was like a you know at the end

(01:49):
of the aisle they'll have bits and pieces. Well, there
was bunnies, but people had gone into the bunnies and
eaten the years off, so there was headless bunnies. There
was eggs with holes in the middle of them, and
I'm like, what has happened here? And people scrambling like
it was I don't know the boxing day sales of
that's mine, that's not yours. People looking in people's trolley
and I'm going I guess we've all left it to

(02:10):
the last minute. But seriously, like, what is Rob's on
the line? Rob? Anything like it? Do you want to
wag in? Rob? What's happened? Rob's in Canfield? Oh yeah,
same thing, mate. I went into the shop to get
some Measter eggs and the candy egg. Let's show him
on the floor. And that's just what's wrong with people.

(02:31):
That's just terribly I'd still leave them. Can I just
say a queue for the register? As long as they're
not out of the side of the packet, I'm happy.
The cue for the register was absolutely ridiculous, Rob and
I saw this poor one gentleman came in. He's obviously
he's got one bunny with the ears on, and everyone's going, oh,
where did you find that? Because there was nothing on
the shelves and he's looking at the line and early, well,

(02:54):
you didn't do what I did? Okay, My wife's bought
me in Easter eg and I didn't buy her one
because I I thought, I know, but I thought we'd
said I will just buy for the kids. Yeah, yeah,
how did I feel? I had to go into the
fridge to get out of the Cadbury fan favorites and
pullorata that was left favorites with a cup of tea.
I went down and bought my dad one. And my

(03:18):
mom's a diabetic so she can't have chocolate anymore, so
we went and bought my poor mum from camar. Going
into Camart was the worst idea. Cooper's like, mum, seriously,
we bought her an avocado heat week. There was nothing left.
So we looked back with all this stuff and she's like,
what have you got? Happy Easter? Don't even know? You

(03:40):
don't ask, terrible mate. It literally was a huge though
I've never seen it like ridiculous and it took thirty
minutes to get through the red stuff. People were just going,
this is crazy.
