The price of candy!!

I spent more money on the 2 bags of candy I bought (miniture candy bars, 115 pieces per pag) at $9.99 a piece then I did on Brandons halloween costume!!

$20 for candy!! They sure make out this time of year!

I agree, its ridiculous! And since we usually go through 7 or 8 bags, we are now buying the 'cheap stuff'.

We spent about $15 and I thought that was ridiculous. Especially considering that our little one is only 17 months, so who will eat all the leftovers?? Oh yeah, me!! =)

We didn't buy any because we'll be out ourselves and because we live in the country where people have to drive from house to house and because you can't see our house from the road, the only ones we ever got were our nieces and nephews and since we won't be home, we don't have to buy any!!

But I agree that $20 is a lot to spend on candy.

I know. Isn't it awful? DH was just wanting some plain m&m's last week, and all we could find was the Halloween snack packs, and there was no way I was paying $5+ for one of those when I can normally buy a regular bag for $2 or less.
