Easter is here....BUT IT COSTS YOU DONUTS TO GET THE PRIZES?!?!?

100% false. The baskets are optional. Basically a neighbor can "donate" their egg color to you. After it maxes out, you collect eggs of that color. No idea on limits or anything. Donater is said to get some eggs back after collection or something.

These are NOT required:

- You gather eggs by zapping bunnies (1 or 2 eggs per bunny)
- You gather eggs by visiting friends - tapping buildings only - some holiday buildings don't give eggs (Clausco, Shamrock Cafe) - Graffiti does NOT give eggs

- Redeem 500 of that color for a mystery box to win prizes.

Blue are common, pink are uncommon, gold are rare. No idea where gold are found, so far only see in Blue and Pink prize menus. I didn't get a single one visiting friends. Blue and pink were found in friends towns, many more blues than pink.

You don't have to buy the baskets. You can collect pink and yellow eggs by taping on bunnies and visiting your neighbors. It will take longer than having someone fill a basket for you, but it can be done.

Considering the laundry list of prizes, I'll have to seriously consider those baskets. Or at least the pink one.

You can also win a basket by tapping bunnies, I just got a blue one.

I've been getting many more pink than blue. When you consider that you can trade pink eggs for blue eggs and blue for gold, I suspect the pink are the more common.

You will have to buy baskets if you want everything.

It is absolute bollocks.

You can ein golden eggs in the pink and blue mystery box.

someone needs to explain these baskets better and how they help
also if you can win them by tapping on bunnies why would i buy them

It seems difficult to complete everyone if you don't have 5000 donuts. And the only main quest is to collect 50 fences. A lot of cool prizes with quests, but odds are you wont get most of them. I had to use a lot of donuts to get them all.

It says in the "Easter 2014 Guide," to "place baskets in your Springfield for friends to give you eggs of one color in exchange for another."

I was confused and thank you everyone on the clarification!
