This question may seem a bit strange to ask in June, but I'm planning an army themed birthday party for my nephew in August. I remember seeing plastic camouflage easter eggs around Easter and I thought of an excellent party game. The kids could have an Easter egg hunt, except I wouldn't call it an Easter egg hunt because it's August. I want to section off an area of the yard with caution tape and put up Caution: Mine Field Signs. The kids can look for the eggs/mines. My question is does anyone have any idea where I can find these eggs? I've already searched on-line with no luck. The only place that I've found is on e-bay, it's $5 for 6. That's too expensive because I need a bunch of them. Around Easter I could have gotten 8 of them for $1.49 at Wal-Mart. So if anyone could help me find them or if you have another idea of something that I could use instead of the Easter eggs. Thanks!

I know how hard it is to find objects from holidays that are only out at the time, because I was looking for candy a few months after Easter and couldn't find anything anywhere!

That is all that i could find. If that isn't what you are looking for maybe you could just try getting green Easter eggs (or whatever color you desire) and either drawing the print on them (although that would probably take forever!) or getting some kind of print to go over them. But the link I showed you, even though they come in a variety of colors, are a pretty reasonable price. It is about $10 for 72 eggs. Well I hope I helped and good luck with that birthday party!:] [ honestXmiistake's advice column | Ask honestXmiistake A Question ]

They have the camouflage Easter eggs in a variety of colors as well as fatigue colors. Just scroll down the page and you will see them. You might contact the company and see if you can't get them all in your fatigue colors. They may be willing to accommodate you since this is the off season for Easter eggs. If this doesn't work out for you for some reason why not contact Walmart and see if they can't special order them for you from the company they purchased them from. I find a lot of stores are willing to do that if they don't have to make a huge purchase (more than you are willing to purchase or be stuck with). Walmart also may have some stored away somewhere. Again, sometimes companies are willing to make exceptions when they want to clear their warehouses of excess merchandise and it is in the off season. So, you have nothing to loose. If Walmart has them stored somewhere you could contact their headquarters and special order it and they'll ship it to you. There are all kinds of ways to do it. Good luck in your search and I wish you the best of luck.
