复活节彩蛋卖断货

复活节是最古老最有意义的基督教节日之一,时间是春分月圆后的第一个星期日,今年的复活节是本周末。然而,近来英国很多消费者抱怨,由于缺货,在很多超市已经买不到复活节彩蛋了. The Telegraph reports that shoppers are facing an Easter Egg shortage this week, after a high level of discounting by supermarkets means some shops have already run out of many products. The shortage appears to have particularly affected Tesco, the country's biggest retailer, which has run out of a number of lines, especially eggs made by Cadbury – the country's biggest chocolate maker – and Nestle, as well as some Lindt and Mars eggs. But other supermarkets were suffering from gaps on shelves, with four days to go until Easter. The drought in the seasonal treat comes as supermarkets exchange shots in a so-called price war, which has seen the leading chains lower the prices of a number of key products in an attempt to steal customers from rivals. Easter eggs have fallen prey to this tactic, with the great majority discounted or on promotion of some sort.
