I have been out today and bought 20 Easter Eggs for my children and grand children.
Do you buy your family and friends Easter Eggs, or do you think they are a waste of money?
Here’s a pic of the ones l bought today, they were only 75p each! If l’d waited until nearer Easter, they would have been double the price. I’ve just got to find somewhere to store them…
Good haul! I buy my two Easter eggs even though they’re grown. No grand kids yet
I get my old man and me one as well. And we have a little basket of Cadbury creme, caramel and mini eggs on the coffee table over Easter
But the the big MUST HAVE for my overgrown kids and hubby are cornflake nests!
We don’t bother.
And not be tempted to eat them!
We always do, but my son always pleads with Mr B not to go over the top, as he so often does, buying up loads of eggs for our two grandsons. The fact is, they get eggs from so many people, that they’re overrun with them, so when Mr B takes round 4 eggs each, it’s ridiculous. Last year I managed to rein him in by giving him a very, very firm talking to. I fear I’ll have to do it again this year 
.
I might buy my son a nice Easter Egg.
Probably just cheap ones for the girls. Not like when I was a youngster when I used to get loads. 
I love cornflake nests,Maree, and so easy to make,
Haven’t had an Easter egg since i was about 6 … I remember it well.
Dad explained to me that Easter eggs were commercial rip-off’s and if I just had bars of chocolate instead I’d get lots more sweeties.
So I went for the bags of goodies instead. 
Easter eggs means chocolate eggs or candy eggs?
My thought went to actual eggs. When I was a kid, we boiled eggs and colored them with food coloring, then hid them for others to find.
Probably not the best idea since eggs not found could smell really badly. But I’ve never heard of anyone leaving a rotting egg anywhere. I think people have an incentive to count them when they’re real eggs.
How’s about a Cadbury’s creme egg or a small egg and a fiver if they get too many? 
Or a book or a toy with a bag of mini eggs?
Hard to believe, I know but when I was a kid I wasn’t big on sweets and chocolate
And I can remember getting loads from family and they’d stay on the shelf until they went white and mum threw them away
Nah, dont really do Easter eggs, not since my son’s an adult.
I havent got any grandkids either, and seeing as I am not a chocolate lover myself, it seems a bit pointless.
Is that a wine rack full of fruit Maree?
I buy one for the grandchildren up to the age of 16.
Once they’re at work they could buy me one but they don’t!!
I will probably get Tony a really nice big one this year.
As his Alzheimer’s progresses so has his love for chocolate & sweets.
Yes, it is! I picked it up in a charity shop and on high days and holidays I put it on the coffee table and fill it up with goodies 
We’ll be buying the g’nieces one each I suppose.
It looks very stylish.
Only if they are reduced in price after Easter. Our Tesco often has them then, but they have to be really cheap.
Thanks , it was only 50p!
