I only remember one.  The baskets themselves were always recycled year after year. I was given a fuzzy brown stuffed bunny.  I loved that thing ... I remember it vividly and since my Mom keeps everything I can't believe I haven't come across it over at her house.

I don't remember the ones I got as a kid, but I sure do remember the ones I gave my kids with lots of Reese's peanut butter cups and eggs, jelly beans, and a big chocolate Easter bunny. I used to hide the baskets and give the kids each a clue that would lead to another clue and then to another, etc. until they finally found their baskets. They used to really get a big kick out of that every year.

yes,,,   we had awesome baskets as kids.  candy, chocolate bunnies,,,  eggs  you name it we had it in our baskets.  But when I had kids jof my own I changed it up and didn't put very much candy.  they got books, markers and coloring books or small toys.  they got maybe jelly beans and an peanut butter egg but I just didn't give them candy.  today neither one of my kids eat candy and their kids don't eat candy either  :)

So am I the only one that got real live bunnies in their Easter baskets?  8)

My parents raised rabbits for a while outside in the back yard. I only got to play with them for a short while. Then I guess someone eventually ate them. Hakuna Matata.

I do remember vaguely.  The school I went to always provided a Easter egg hunt and if you were one of those who never found one, the Teachers always made sure they put some in your basket.  Good times.

I do remember them well.  My mother was a great believer in "quality" candy if you are going to eat sweets.  She went to specialty shops and bought beautiful, yummy eggs, bunnies, and jelly beans.  She would throw in an extra item if she found something unusual, such as a shape or flavor. I was a lucky kid!

I remember getting an Easter basket twice.  Don't really remember what was in either one.

He lo everyone out in Fusion Cash World:

The only recollection that I have about Easter baskets is that I wanted to go out and find as many eggs as possible to put
inside these baskets, which had fake grass inside of it.

I do remember.   They were much less elaborate than the ones that they have now, but I remember we appreciated whatever we got in it, such fun.    Once we got a present in the basket, my present wa an easter egg necklace -- I probably have it in a box somewhere...  much simpler times.

Yep. I probably still have a few in the basement- if my folks didn't throw them out. :P
