A mum has been left fuming over an 'Easter Egg Eve' treat for kids.
Home Bargains sell a box that is filled with Easter themed goodies but some shoppers say the discount store are milking money out of the religious holiday.
As MEN reports, Debbie Chambers took a trip to the store and was shocked when she saw the product on the shelves.

Taking to social media, she posted a picture of the £2.99 box. It is light blue with a rabbit on it and contains an Easter Egg hunt set, a basket, rabbit mask, a pointer and tokens.
Written on it is, 'Special delivery- Easter Eve Box'.
Debbie argued on Facebook that Home Bargains had gone too far.
Posting on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains group, it quickly grabbed the attention of furious parents.
Emma L Berry said: "When I was growing up I received some Easter eggs, this is a ridiculous idea.
"The sad thing is shops have forgotten what some occasions are for. For some people, Easter is an extremely special, religious day.
"I admire people with this faith, it is not something to be insulted by throwing money at it!"
Paula Adds wrote: "What a waste of money, the pressure on parents to buy these extras is so sad, especially at the moment.
"Some people might think these are brilliant for others it's simply more commercialism and pressure.
"Thank goodness my children are too old now for this."
Louise Garrahan slammed: "What next...Halloween eve?? Bonny night eve? There is a special magic on Christmas Eve.
"Retailers should just respect that."
Susan Buckmaster commented: "Surely all these ‘eve’ boxes just detract from the joy of the actual day?
"Or maybe it’s been too long since I was a child!"
Carrie Anne Greening said: "As if people are not struggling enough. Get a grip please don’t buy this! Your children didn’t have an Easter eve box last year or the year before they got a bloody egg!"
