Orkney Island Store's Easter Egg Order Exceeds Population

A simple ordering mistake leads to an island shop having 720 Easter eggs, more than its 500 residents.

A shop in Orkney, Sinclair General Stores, mistakenly ordered 720 Easter eggs instead of the intended 80.
The error resulted in more Easter eggs than the island of Sanday's population of around 500.
Shop owner Dan Dafydd has initiated a raffle to win 100 of the eggs, with proceeds going to the RNLI.
The RNLI, vital to the island's community, celebrates its 200-year anniversary, benefiting from the raffle.
The story has gained global attention, with people from around the world participating in the raffle.
