This Easter, Kmart is teaming up with PEEPS, the marshmallow candy brand, to introduce goodies.
Sure, everyone has Facebook friends, but it's time to figure out once and for all who your 'peeps' really are. Thanks to the Kmart 'My PEEPS' generator, users can create their very own virtual marshmallow PEEPS pack by customizing shapes and colors, and adding the faces of their closest 'peeps!' Visit Kmart.com/mypeeps to get started and say 'Happy Easter' to your flock. Be sure to share your PEEPS pack on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter with #MyPeeps.
For those looking for a fresh take on an Easter classic, Kmart breaks down the steps to create brag-worthy baskets filled with great deals.
How to Make an Epic Easter Basket in Six Hops
1) Choose your basket: Go traditional and choose a colorful Easter-inspired basket, or get creative with a bowl, bucket, vase or handbag, depending on who you're gifting.
2) Grow your basket: Lay the foundation of your basket with candy, paper or iridescent grass, like Kmart's Easter Jubilee Iridescent Grass in lime, orchid, blue, pink or clear on sale for $1.79 (regular price $1.99).
3) Sweeten your basket: The best part of any Easter basket is the candy haul! Look for deals on favorites including:
2 for $3 PEEPS Marshmallow Chicks or Bunnies 3-3.75 oz.*
3 for $2 Cadbury Eggs*
$3.99 Reese's or Dove chocolate bunnies 3-7 oz.*
3 for $5 Easter Hershey's Robin Eggs 10 oz.*
2 for $7 Easter 6-pk Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs, KitKat Bunny Ears or Lindt Gold Bunny*
2 for $5 Starburst or Jolly Rancher jelly beans 14-16 oz.*
2 for $6 Hershey's, Mars or Nestle packaged chocolate 4.65-12.6 oz.*
4) 'Eggify' your basket: Stock up on Kmart's Easter Jubilee Mixed Easter Eggs - Bright Color, 30 count, on sale for $3.59 (regular price $3.99) and fill them with small chocolates, jelly beans, small toys or even jewelry. Then hide the eggs within the grass planted in Step 2.

Use festive cellophane wrap to make your basket look deluxe with Kmart's Easter Jubilee 40" Cello Wrap in clear, pink, pink dots, blue dots, rabbits or Easter eggs on sale for $1.79 (regular price $1.99). Be sure to cut a large enough square piece of cellophane to cover the entire basket. On a flat surface, lay the square piece of cellophane down and place the basket in the center. Then, take all four corners and draw them together in one hand over the top of the basket handle. Twist the plastic clockwise and tie with a large ribbon.
