Easter Baskets 2K9

Easter is almost here...which means stores are stocked with lots of Easter stuff - baskets, candy, chocolate bunnies, peeps, egg dye, etc....
I was at Target this evening and took the photo below (of course with my new iPhone) of what they are advertising as Easter baskets. WTF.
From Wikipedia: A basket is a container which is traditionally constructed from stiff fibres, often made of willow.
None of the below pathetic excuses for baskets fit the definition of a basket. Who wants a basket shaped like Elmo? Or a baseball? What is that stupid pale with the wooden handle? The Easter Bunny does NOT fill Easter Buckets.
Target - pull it together and sell some real, traditional BASKETS. My children will NEVER have stupid "baskets" like this.
