I don't know if they still do, but I bought one several years ago from there to store my dogs toys in.

Yes they sale them, but not the very big ones. I've bought them a couple of times and used them to make gift baskets for baby showers and house warming parties. HTH

I did better getting my laundry baskets at Dollar General, they were much bigger and only a couple of bucks more. HTH

Mine often has the small round ones (about as big around as a basketball), rarely but somethings the larger round ones.

i found a decent sized one today. don't care for the greenish color, but for $1...*shrugs* it's worth it.

They don't hold up very well. I bought a few to make wedding gift baskets and I guess I filled them to full because when I picked them up, they broke. These were the round white ones. Just wanted to let you know to be careful how much you put in them and watch if you need to move them. I had to run to another store 20 minutes before the shower and repack the new baskets.

thanks for the tip. i noticed mine didn't seem very sturdy, but they held up ok...at least until i gave them to the girl...

Yep, there are several different types. Also, I buy the black dishpan things to use as litter boxes. That way can change as often as I want and doesn't cost that much.

Also, there aer other types of baskets to use for gifts, they sell tons of different types of plastic container things.
