A Candy Store Review & Giveaway





 Halloween is only a few weeks away, but with a house full of people, the candy my kids collect goes pretty quickly. It seems to disappear faster each year.  Buying the little bags at the grocery store only lasts for about a day or two and it never makes it to Halloween night for me to hand out. For anyone with a large family, its always a good idea to buy in bulk. And a great place to buy candy in bulk is A Candy Store.   There you can find gummies, lollipops, mints, chocolate and more at prices well below retail.







For our review, we were given a $50 credit. Choosing something was tough with so many wonderful options. I was surprised at how easy it was to navigate the site. You can search by candy type, occasion, and even color. We finally decided on a case of Pretzel M & Ms and Take 5 chocolate bars.  They arrived just a few days later, well packaged and very fresh. Both of these varieties are hard to find in my area, so I was excited to get a case of each of them, especially at such a great price. This amount of candy will last awhile even in my household. And full size bars to hand out will make the neighborhood kids happy this Halloween.





In addition to Halloween treats and every day snacking, there are plenty of other occasions that A Candy Store can help to make memorable. Their candy would make wonderful party favors for your kid's birthday parties or you can make little gift bags for holiday parties at school. They even have some unique selections for bridal, baby showers, and wedding candy.  They always offer shipping for the low flat rate of $9.95, so it easy and convenient to stay stocked up all year long.







In honor of Halloween, A Candy Store is going to give one of my readers a box of Take 5 Candy bars and Pretzel M & Ms just like the ones I reviewed.  To enter, you must sign up for the A Candy Store newsletter.
