Shoppers are reportedly opening Creme Eggs to try and find a limited edition white chocolate one.
Cadbury launched the long-awaited white egg last week, but there's a catch - there's only a few, and if you find one, you'll win a cash prize.
Very elusive and only rarely seen in the wild...the White Creme Egg! Pick up a Creme Egg in stores and unwrap for a chance to find yours or win up to €1,000! #CremeEggHuntingSeason pic.twitter.com/rqaX6ws3iU

Now, Creme Egg hunters are unwrapping the chocolate treats in shops and the displays look like an absolute nightmare!
Photos on social media from Ireland and the UK show the tinfoil wrapping on several eggs peeled back.

Some customers are even accusing shop staff of opening the eggs and re-wrapping them.
