Do fix an Easter basket for your hubby?

I was thinking about some fun little stuff.

Yup!  I get small gifts, like a DVD, last year I gave him new flipflops (he needed them!), some of his favorite candy, sometimes cologne if he needs more, and he likes taking baths and soak, so I get him stress relief bath salts every year, nuts, fitness magazine--basically it's like a Christmas stocking, but in an Easter basket.  :-)  

I think DH is finally coming around to my style of Easter basket--his idea is a throwback to childhood--massive amounts of chocolate, and we don't need massive amounts of chocolate around the house while trying to be healthy.

I love this idea! We have been together for 5 years and never really celebrate Easter but I think I will do a basket for him this year... great idea!

Yep - every year.  I make a basket for my niece, nephew, and DH.  All the baskets usually have candy and chocolate.  The kids get fun little old school toys (like slinkies, playdough, silly putty).  DH usually gets a little something he needs - last year it was a new pair of sandals.  This year it will probably be a tie since he mentioned this morning he needs a purple tie.

I did last year bc Dh's parents came to visit and see our new house. I ended up making baskets for everyone. This year I won't be doing one. We have more candy in the house than we need and that's what I usually fill the baskets with. I won't be doing baskets again until we have kids -- Dh will get one again then.

This is our first year married for Easter and I just bought all the stuff for a surprise basket today.  I got some plastic colored eggs that I'll fill with M&Ms and jelly beans and some Sponge Bob stuff because he loves Sponge Bob.  I don't know if I'll do it every year, depends how it goes over I guess.

This is our 2nd married Easter.  Last year we weren't together as I was visiting family in NY b/c of my sister's bridal shower & H was away on a work trip....I did leave him a surprise card & pb cup eggs.  This year I decided to do an Easter basket for us to share filled w/ fave candy - we are trying to be healthier so thought this would work best!  I am using an Easter basket of my Mom's who has passed away so that will be special.

Yep DH and I have been together for almost 10 years and I have done an Easter basket for him for about 8 of those years. This year it will have some candy, a new dvd, some new golf balls and tees, and a monogrammed golf towel.

Yes, and like most of you said I give mostly little things. It is more of just thinking of you.

Yep, every year. We each have a basket that we make for each other. Speaking of which, I need to get out of the closet. We put little fun gifts in there as well as favorite candies and hard boiled eggs that I decorate.

I did the first year we were married.  I just put in some snacks, a book of logic puzzles, and then I made up a naughty Easter egg hunt for him.  Instead of candy in the eggs, I put in coupons redeemable for all sorts of fun things.

We usually do a small basket with a couple pieces of candy and a silly Easter toy. Then we hid plastic eggs all over the house for each other to find. Last few years we've been stuck in an apartment but this year we have two floors of a house to work with. Should be interesting.

we did make baskets while we were dating, but not since we've been married.  neither one of us really eats candy, and we're trying to save $, so we don't anymore.

Last year I did, just filled it with some candy and essentials that he needed like cologne, deodorant (lol), that type of stuff...

This year, we are in the process of buying a home so we are saving every dollar we can! So no basket this year

When we were dating I did, but now that we're married, we spend Easters with my family, and my mom makes us a basket.

we're pretty secular in our ways and feel that an easter basket is kind of a waste of money. If we WERE "easter people" we wouldn't make it commercial with gifts, since it is fundamentally a religious holiday. Gifts are for birthdays (imo).
