I’m mum of 7 and I was fuming when Asda said my £20 Easter eggs ‘don’t exist’ – it left me in a mad rush to get more
A MUM-of-seven was left gutted after she spent £20 on Easter eggs at Asda which “don’t exist”.
Tracy Smith, 43, ordered the bundle of treats for her kids and granddaughter as part of her online shop on Thursday.

She had planned to dish them out on Easter Sunday, but when her delivery arrived she was told none of the chocs were in stock.
Tracey, from Queensbury, West Yorks., later shared a photo of her online shopping basket to Twitter – showing a bold red strike by every egg.
The disgruntled mum told Yorkshire Live: “I ordered three large eggs and lots of smaller ones to do an egg hunt Sunday morning.
“I ordered them along with my usual weekly grocery shop and placed the order on April 14.

“All eggs showed as being available so I was disappointed and frustrated when they were unavailable but not necessarily surprised as Asda are quite poor at having stock, especially for seasonal occasions.”
Tracy says she is now “£20 down” until Asda refunds her.
She was also forced to go “on a mad rush” to find replacements on Friday evening.
The mum wrote on Twitter: “When you order all the Easter eggs for your kids to be delivered and they’re all unavailable, great. Thanks Asda.”
The team responded by apologising and Tracy said Asda offered her a £15 voucher to spend in store as a gesture of goodwill.
