My parents never bought me chocolate eggs when I was a child and now I resent having to take part in the annual sugar-fest

Every week a Guardian Money reader submits a question, and it’s up to you to help him or her out – a selection of the best answers will appear in next Saturday’s paper.

This week’s question:
