			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" title="Easter Bunny" src="http://www.nzs.com/blog/images/easter-bunny.jpg" alt="Easter Bunny" width="200" />The Easter holidays are rapidly approaching and more and more people are searching for Easter related terms such as &#8216;Easter eggs&#8217; and &#8216;Easter holiday dates&#8217; on the Internet.</p>
<p>With regards to the latter, it&#8217;s not surprising that so many people search online for the correct Easter holiday dates each year as the dates can vary from late March to late April. You can check out the &#8216;<a title="When is Easter?" href="http://www.nzs.com/answers/44-when-is-easter/">When is Easter</a>&#8216; question on NZS.com for the relevant dates.</p>
<h3><strong>Chocolatey Goodness</strong></h3>
<p>To help you with the more tastey side of Easter, you&#8217;ll find that most supermarkets will have Easter eggs for sale right now &#8211; in fact they often start pretty early! It&#8217;s not all that unusual to see Easter eggs in stores right after the previous holiday of Valentines Day in mid February. You can find plenty of <a title="Supermarkets" href="http://www.nzs.com/business/shopping/food-and-drink/supermarkets/">supermarkets</a> in the NZS.com directory. Why not find out if there are any smaller supermarkets in your region to help support the smaller businesses of New Zealand?</p>
<p>Even better, perhaps this year you should <a href="http://www.nzs.com/new-zealand-articles/seasons-and-celebrations/make-easter-eggs-at-home.html">make your own Easter eggs</a>? Not only will you be likely to save money, you&#8217;ll also be able to spend some great family time with the kids during the process!</p>
