I will be giving all my grandchildren a small token egg with some money attached. The older two because they are 16 and health conscious and the younger four because their parents don’t like them eating too much chocolate.
I've never given them. I let them choose a small gift instead. They get loads of chocolate from other sources. I stop once they start working. Then they can buy me something 🍫🐣
Never given them. GCs mum is a dentist and sweets are strictly limited, so they would just sit in a tin for months. They are an overpriced way to buy chocolate anyway.
I buy chocolate for my sons (42 and 40) as well as eggs for 1 DIL and all the GC. One DIL is lactose intolerant, so I've got her a nice candle and tealight holder
I have sent 'Easter egg money' to DS1 and family in USA and bought some for DS2 family here. I now have won a giant Easter Egg. 9lb of milk choc. so the local ones are coming on Monday to help eat it. A local charity did a draw for their fb supporters.
I still buy one for my OH who loves Easter egg chocolate more than any other chocolate ,the kids and GC all get tham and a couple of neighbours who are having a tough time get them too.Any excuse to put a smile on someones face and I'll buy chocolate eggs

I like your thinking, paddyann54. I buy one for DH too. And one for myself while I’m at it.
As for them being overpriced, they’re a cut above an everyday bar of chocolate and I’m happy to pay a bit more. And for most of March, Tesco was selling its medium sized eggs for £2, the small ones for £1, quite the bargain in my opinion. I’m sure other supermarket deals were available.
I have 6 grandchildren - oldest are 21 and 22 - I still give them Easter eggs. Until a couple of years ago, my AC and their wives got one each as well - got way too expensive and perhaps a bit wasteful because they’re all on diets etc 😂that’s my excuse anyway
