Krups Nespresso Pixie Coffee Machine + Aeroccino.

My daughter and son-in-law got one as a wedding present, and it makes excellent coffee - so we treated ourselves to one.

With Easter still three months away, the rush to cash in on the ÂŁ500million-a-year market caused concern.

Church of England spokesman Steve Jenkins said: “Christmas celebrates Jesus’s birth — a different message from Easter, which marks the end of his life.

“Supermarkets should not be selling Easter eggs now.” He added: “Customers think it’s daft — and supermarkets should take what they think into account.”

The sleeves will be for sale next year, when the powers that be decide that wearing just sleeves is fashionable.

Sorry, but they're not - Cadbury will only supply them to retailers between 1st January and Easter Day each year. After Easter, as soon as they've sold out, that's your lot and there are no more until next year. If you see them on a newsagent's shelf in October or November, check the sell by date, they might be a bit sticky.

Re: What have you just bought?

I love how every year people are surprised that Easter products are on sale come the new year. This has happened every year. Mid-September you have Halloween stuff, November 1st you have Christmas stuff, January 1st you have Easter Stuff and then after Easter comes the summer stuff. Every single year. They wouldn't put them on sale if people didn't buy them.
