    At this point is cheaper to be the house with full candy bars /s

    Looking at the prices of Snickers from CandyDirect.com you can get 15.8 lbs of fun sized (about 400+ pieces if my math is right with each bar at 17 grams) for $186. $0.46 each. Fuck what a scam.

    Full bars are fucking $2.41 each in bulk. WTF

    Also, some of these bags are huge. 350, 250, etc. pieces for $25, so 7¢ each. The top row center bags are 15¢ per piece. If you’re not expecting a constant steam of kids, one of these might be all you need.

      A lot of people with, ehem, special needs, buy a shit ton of candy for Halloween so that when there are pounds of it left over they can be like, ‘Oh geeze, I guess Someone has to eat all this candy…’
