SPAR

In addition to its weekly updated list of permanently discounted products, Spar also gives special attention to the Easter period. In these days, sales can be up to 30-40 percent higher than on other days. As Márk Maczelka, head of communications, explained, they are offering increased stock levels on holiday-related products, highlighting their private label offer.

TESCO

TESCO’s idea was that in addition to the promotions, they will increase the purchase limit on price-capped products during the Easter period. As for eggs, they even abolished the limit altogether. So, until 8 April, the maximum amount you can buy in one purchase will be 4 litres for sunflower cooking oil in litre packs, 10 kilos for wheat flour, 4 kilos for chicken breast and chicken tail, 6 kilos for pork legs and 12 kilos for potatoes.
