The egg however is a milk chocolate.

The nostalgic sweets will come alongside the chocolate treat.

This iconic egg is currently available for £9.99 on eBay but it is unclear how much it is at Home Bargains.

Shoppers have also rushed to get their hands on other Easter eggs in the run up to the big day.

Some customers have been able to pick up deals on huge Cadbury Easter eggs.

The Mini Eggs and Dairy Milk with Caramel Bars eggs are usually £6.

Shoppers at Morrisons were able to pick these up for just £3.50 with their More Card.

A keen-eyed customer spotted the deal and shared a photo in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group.

Its caption reads: “Not sure if these have been posted yet, but £3.50 each with more card in Morrisons they did have quite a few others they are the bigger ones normally priced at £6.”

More luxurious and high-end eggs are also available at some supermarkets.

A new-style “flat” egg has dropped in Waitrose stores weeks before the big day.

The No.1 Blonde Chocolate & Biscuit Flat Easter Egg has gone viral online.

It is made of white chocolate and caramelised sugar and biscuit spread.

This special egg has also been decorated with pieces of caramel and caramelised sugar.

This unique design however is not a traditional Easter egg with its flat shape.
