Peeps respond negatively

The post received many likes and comments on social media. Many flocked to the comments section to express their thoughts on the subject.

Skaapjagter shared:

"They're trying to stay true to Easter each year by RAISING prices. But truly the price of eggs was mental this year. Even Clicks "3 for 2" deals were pointless because they jacked up the prices so badly that the discount didn't even matter. Never did I think I would see no-name egg brands like Pnp or Checkers rival that of beacon egg prices."
