@va2lam Mind you, $13.50 for around $2.50 - $3.00 worth of chocolate is pushing it.
@billbennett I don't think that what you're buying is the chocolate per se... but yes, it is certainly high markup!

@va2lam @billbennett whittakers straining credulity with a 20% smaller kiwi for 30% more $ than lindt bun

@ptoothfish @billbennett I mean, no one has to buy it. It's not like, say, the Washington Post with dynamic pricing for news (wtf?!?!)

Also, Easter kiwis from Whittaker's. At least kiwis lay eggs, unlike bunnies! #NZ
@va2lam it's either chocolate kiwi eggs or chocolate eggheads from Easter island

@ptoothfish @billbennett I did buy one as a gift to bring back to Canada though! Sure, maybe I'm a bit of a sucker. I'm fortunate enough to be not price sensitive when it comes to gifts.

@va2lam I reckon anything more than double is going too far, this is close to four times the usual price.

@ptoothfish @va2lam I wonder if the Lindt bunny come all the way from Switzerland?

@va2lam @ptoothfish I think that’s reasonable. If you buy chocolate at the airport it’s getting on for twice the dairy price.

The McLaren logo is also based on a kiwi
