TOO SOON? Hot cross buns already on sale

EVERY year it's a topic of hot cross discussion and every year the arrival of hot cross buns in the supermarkets seems to get earlier and earlier.

This photograph was posted online yesterday, of hot cross buns for sale in a Woolworths store in Bega in New South Wales.

The expiry on the product clearly shows the date as December 29, 2016.

This publication ran a story in early January this year announcing the arrival of the Easter staple in our stores.

The reason given at the time was the earlier Easter in 2016, however Easter 2017 is still almost 16 weeks away, which begs the question.

When will we see them in Warwick stores?

This publication can confirm hot cross buns are not on sale yet at either of Warwick's major supermarkets.
