I know it is only January still but easter eggs are already in the shops in the UK, and guess what? We need some!



Carole and I raised almost 700TL on guess how many eggs in the jar last year and we would like to do it again but need to get the eggs over here about a month or so before easter.



Can anyone (or everyone) bring a couple of packs of mini eggs and the larger creme eggs out with them for a Tulips fundraiser, we are more than willing to pay for them.



I am hoping that if a few of you each bring some out to the TRNC then it won't take up too much of your luggage allowance.



It doesn't matter if we end up with too many as we have a few other surprises for easter with which we need chocolate eggs for.



If you think you can help us, please leave a message on here or email:



tulipscarole@yahoo.com



Thank you



Sue

Msg 9, Thank you for the information, I know the owners so will pop in but I am looking for more of the mini eggs more than anything to put in a jar for a competition, I will put in a few of the creme eggs but not too many, they are too easy to count!



We really need lots of the small ones as we need lots of prizes for the kids for easter ..... more will be revealed later on what we will be doing.



So if anyone coming out can please bring out a few bags in their luggage or from duty free we would be very, very grateful and we are more than willing to pay for them.



Many thanks to everyone who has already offered.

Supreme have the cadbury twister for 1TL. So yummy and better than the creme egg and much more filling. You know how much I love my chocolate.

Sainsburys are doing 2 bags of Cadburys Mini Eggs for £2, not a lot to fork out for a good cause!

If you don't mind them being upside down I could bring some back from Australia! But what size? It is so long since i bought Easter eggs (fatten ing to folk like me). tell me how many and what size. Back 6th March (or earlier if I have to). In spite of their coming from Down Under I strongly suspect they will taste the same!?!

You know I can't resist you two girls.

We would like to thank those of you who have brought over some packets of mini eggs so far. We are still asking as we need more (if possible).



We know what it is like bringing everything but the kitchen sink back to the TRNC (in your luggage) with you leaving very little space left, never mind gams/kilo's for easter eggs so we really do appreciate the forum readers that have done so for us.



Thank you!



Sue and Carole
