As temperatures have soared since last Easter, so too have sales in BBQ equipment. Homebase have reported gas sales high enough "to fuel 300,000 barbecues".
As for the Easter Eggs themselves, Sales arent rocketing nearly so much as they are for Hot Cross Buns, which Mike Prentice, group marketing executive at Spar, claims have shown a yearly increase in popularity for the last three years, helped by the fact that they are affordably treats when compared to the eggs.
For those of us who are attempting to refrain from calories over the usually gluttonour Easter Hols, a host of alternative seasonal treats are now available, ranging from the Playmobil Egg (not just for kids!) Chocolate Manicures and for those who prefer Easter with a bit of gore, The London Bridge Experience offers a zombie easter bunny, and an Easter Head Hunt!
Whatever you choose to spend your money on this bank holiday weekend, make sure to enjoy the heat! Tweet
