How To Make $1000 Every Easter Weekend (Side Hustle)

Some parents are too busy to hide Easter eggs. A 14-year-old saw a business in that…

Last year I started a small business where I hide Easter eggs filled with chocolate in people’s yards for their kids. I ended up doing around 11 houses and made about $350–400.

The packages: 25 eggs for $20, up to 100 eggs for $65. Total cost per filled egg – about $0.21.

Reddit’s verdict? Way undercharging 👇

Your eggs cost about 21 cents each. That does not mean you price based on 21 cents.

Parents are paying for:
Not going to the store
Not stuffing eggs
Not hiding them at 10pm
Seeing their kids excited

That is value.

Another commenter adds…

The eggers around me charge a minimum of $50 for 25 eggs and more for premium candy, glitter, etc.

“Egg My Yard” is a whole thing now – Girl Scout troops, church groups, and solo operators run versions across the US 👀

One established operator charges $30–85 per package.

This kid only used two marketing channels – a parent’s Facebook page and a local community group. Two channels, 11 houses.

Hide eggs in 20 yards at $50+ each and you’ve got $1,000+ for a few evenings’ work 🤑
