      Speak for yourself. My local church who does Sunday Easter was begging for financial donations and egg donations.

      One of the “threats” was using potatoes or rocks.

      They’re concerned because next year, the free egg hunt might be a paid event.

        There are plastic fucking eggs that have been used in 99% of all Easter egg hunts since plastic eggs were made. Tell your church to fill them with candy and cheap toys and quit acting like shit heads over it

        I honestly don’t remember a family or church event that didn’t use the plastic ones unless we were doing egg art as kids.

        Candy beats a room temp egg that’s been sitting in a random spot for hours hands down.

          Boiled eggs that kids paint and then hidden on the church grounds is the norm where I am.

          It’s 3 two hour events with different age groups. Eggs are rarely sitting around for longer than that.

            Okay? Eggs are expensive right now because church people thought the literal embodiment of Satan would make a good president. The least they could do is pivot to plastic eggs and shut the fuck up about it.
