Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

    Those look awesome! I’m gonna have to decide what I’m willing to pay, it’s sure in a different price league compared to The Warehouse collection!

    I’m happy to have other suggestions to choose from along these lines, as they are definitely better looking than the same boring old things each year.

      My back-of-the-envelope scratchings suggest that it’s not really be downing any more, but everyone gets a smaller volume of better chocolate.

      1kg of dubious quality but cheap chocolate isn’t a good deal to me.

        Oh there’s no way anyone in my house is getting a 1kg egg 😆. I don’t need crazy, cranky kids (or adults).

        I’m just looking at the $10-$15 Warehouse options compared to these $30-$60 ones.

        It’s once a year though, I’m not against paying that much. I’d certainly prefer these to giving money to global corporations.

          … I was meaning 1kg in aggregate for myriad family members, though now I’m sad that someone somewhere is buying a 1kg crap chocolate egg for their child.

            When I was young, one year my grandfather got my grandmother a 1kg egg and all through my childhood I wanted one. Never got one, and now I’m an adult I’d rather just have better tasting chocolate in smaller amounts 😆
