Disagreed. It has never been *all* about the candy and especially in this day-and-age of obesity I would prefer to see the candy downplayed further. -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 8, 09:32 10
- As far as what kids get on Easter, it's all about the candy. That's my point. - Krusty Apr 8, 09:36
- It's not gifts instead of candy... it's gifts AND candy. Last couple weeks' Target ads - Cuzzin Todd Apr 8, 09:35 8
  - No gifts, it's not the kids birthday or Christmas(his birthday...sort of). This is really the first I'm hearing about giving kids gifts on Easter. -- nm - Krusty Apr 8, 09:43 7
    - I always got gifts. Stuffed animals, etc. -- nm - Spawn Apr 8, 10:00 6
      - Stuffed bunnies is one thing but toys not associated with the holiday? I don't think I've seen that before. -- nm - Krusty Apr 8, 10:21
      - ... and the stores have had those themed basket bundles for decades. -- nm - Spawn Apr 8, 10:01 4
        
        Yes... and everything fits in a basket... here's an example of what I've seen. - Cuzzin Todd Apr 8, 10:09 3
        
        Logan got 4 (small) baskets. - Spawn Apr 8, 10:17 2
        
        It seems you keep making my point for me. Candy, baskets and small toys. Not bikes and XBoxes. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Apr 8, 10:21 1
        
        Ah, agreed. -- nm - Spawn Apr 8, 10:38
