Charity shops are normally a good source for baskets.
I try and keep an eye out all year round for unusual ones.
Last year I bought my mum a square wicker one that had four empty compartments in it with a black twirly handle coming up from the middle from a local charity shop for 50p. Went to Boots and bought 4 lovely bath foams on BOGOF and used my points to pay....it is not of more importance than daily life, which I have an enduring wish to make as useful and beautiful as possible.

Poundland have oval ones that can be re-used for washing baskets if you're looking for a larger basket.
For a smaller basket I've seen some today in the 99pstore that are lined & have 2 handles - a bit like a shopping basket IYSWIM. They are about 15 cm deep and about the same dimensions as a piece of a4 paper - beautiful they were I was gutted that I'd bought mine already - so gutted that I almost bought half a dozen anyway but that wouldn't have been very money saving would it
