Around this time last year — actually it was Australia Day, 26 January — I went to a party. A man there revealed he was a manager at Woolworths, in charge of a number of branches across Melbourne. A woman said to him, "Why are you selling hot cross buns in January? It's too early!" People piled on to agree with her. January is much too early for hot cross buns. The manager got quite defensive, saying, "People buy them, so why shouldn't we sell them if people will buy them? We'd like to sell them earlier, but we don't want the criticism." I mean, I see what he's saying, but... they're not special if they're always available, are they?

Anyway, I saw Cadbury Creme Eggs on sale on 31 December.
