Tesco, Asda, Morrisons and Sainsbury's have been issued a six-day warning as Easter is almost here.
Easter is always on the first Sunday after the first full moon that follows the spring equinox, marking the beginning of spring. In the UK, there are two bank holidays to celebrate the festival and holiday.
This year, Easter falls on Sunday, March 31.

Many people host celebrations, and will have an extensive list of things they need to buy, and Easter eggs are usually at the top of that list. Asda, Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's are all selling a range of chocolate eggs, as in previous years, but shoppers are being warned they could be missing out on free cash when they buy them.
This is because online shops with these supermarkets are eligible for free cashback for charity.
Buyers only need to go to the easyfundraising website or app, do their shop with the supermarket of their choice, pay and then at the end of the process they will be prompted to select a good cause or charity which the supermarket will then give a donation to. It’s that simple and it costs the customer nothing.
James Moir, the CEO of easyfundraising, says: “Easter is a great time to consume lots of chocolate and sit down for a good roast dinner. If you’re planning to do either of those things, you will want to know about free cash you could claim for charities and good causes.
“It won’t cost you a penny extra as the donation is covered by the supermarket you’ve shopped from.”
