Take it to businesses because they have more of a need for that kind of item. Be prepared to give a few away. You have a lot of competition, so make sure yours are better than everyone else's with baskets that people would want to use afterwards, and items they can't just find in the grocery store.

Door to door at homes doesn't work very well. It puts people on the spot and makes them uncomfortable. I even have a sign on my door to stop people from coming over with stuff to sell. But you could do a nice flyer with some pictures and testimonials of people who have seen your baskets already.
