After spreading word about the comical overorder around the community, Dan Dafydd came up with the idea to raffle off 100 of the Easter eggs to one lucky winner, and raise money for charity.
For the Orkney island of Sanday, Easter has come early. Following a slight technical mishap on an order of festive treats, shop owner, Dan Dafydd, was delivered a whopping 720 chocolate eggs instead of the 80 he meant to buy. And with a population of only 494 on Sanday, the delivery is enough to give every islander just about one and a half Easter eggs each. 'In my arrogance I was sat here thinking have really messed up,' Mr Dafydd, who owns Sinclair General Stores, told Sky News.
'Ever since then the world seems to have gone mad about this silly little tale of me over-ordering Easter eggs!' 'People are calling from all over the world' Mr Dafydd said he initially set what he thought would be an ambitious target of selling 200 raffle tickets, but within a week, he sold out. 'We added another 100 tickets and they have sold out, then another 100 have nearly sold out,' he said.
