They are my FAV along with bulls eyes (caramel around a white cream center.) Don't get me started on sweets; I'm from the "penny candy" era when most were 2 for a penny and a few even 3 for a cent.<BR/>BTW, HyVee has 8-10 Brach's variety $1.49 a lb.LuckyLouPlattsmouthNEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11928593141326304867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14505413.post-66939662192024602762007-09-27T10:40:00.000-05:002007-09-27T10:40:00.000-05:00Lou, I know Depp by 6 degrees of separation.

My passion are those small assorted cubes, some have a gel center and some have pink on them - and some are like gumdrops. Do you know what I mean?

They have FIVE sections of chocolate products labeled "bagged candy" NINE shelves high near section 16. CHECK IT OUT! and that doesn't include the halloween chocolates around the corner or Brach's "pegged" candy in same row. PARADISE or TEMPTATION ALLEY!<BR/>ROFL!!<BR/>And Lucky Lou got 2 bags free (licorice & gummy bears) because they had them misentered at the register. $10 worth of candy; sweet tooth not good for this diabetic.LuckyLouPlattsmouthNEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11928593141326304867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14505413.post-27588473111025750212007-09-25T17:42:00.000-05:002007-09-25T17:42:00.000-05:00When one tree = 2 lbs of chocolate; no wonder it's...When one tree = 2 lbs of chocolate; no wonder it's expensive and only royalty could afford it "back in the day."<BR/><BR/>Mel, I snorted when I read your J Depp comment.
