Is anyone else shocked by how quickly time is moving, or is that just us? We felt as if we had ample time to prepare for Easter Sunday, but as it turns out, we do not. It’s quickly hopping its way here, and if you’re like this procrastinating shopping writer, you haven’t even begun to plan for the spring holiday. At this point, we’ll probably wear the same outfits from last year and pray we can find a brunch reservation somewhere. But one thing we won’t do is skimp on the baskets. Luckily, CVS exists, and they have everything you need to create the ultimate Easter Baskets that’ll look anything but made at the last-minute.
For those that don’t know, Easter falls on Sunday, April 5th this year — which is less than two weeks away. This means we really don’t have that much time to shop at multiple places or sites and put everything together. But with CVS, not only is everything in one place — you can also get it the exact same day, which is a little quicker than another massive online retailer who shall not be named. CVS’s website has tons of basket-filler options, from self-care and beauty gems to cuddly plushies and fun toys that’ll satisfy kids of all ages. And of course, you can find a plethora of chocolate, candy, and sweet treats.
Plus, CVS is having a major Buy One, Get One for $1 on select Easter candy this week. On top of that, when you spend $25, you get $5 in ExtraBucks. Clearly, it saves to wait until the last minute.
Below, take a peek at some of our favorite Easter basket fillers and builders you can find at CVS for less.
