Bulk Dollar Candy

// March 10th, 2010 // 1 Comment » // Candy Addiction, bulk candy



Do you want to buy Dollar Candy Online? Well, I just recently did a search for some candy that I’m going to buy online and happened to look at the DollarTree.com. Whenever I’m home I like to stop buy there to buy some normal candy that I like such as Sour Patch Kid’s and Swedish Fish. Well, I remember years ago, the DollarTree.com website was for mainly investors and franchising. However, from the looks of it, you can buy bulk candy for $1.00 per unit of course in cases depending on the quantity.

So, I did my little investigation and found that the prices are very competitive of most candy websites online. Check out the comparisons below and start buying your candy directly from The Dollar Tree!

Mike and Ike Original Fruits Candy, 6 oz.

The Dollar Tree

  • Price per theater-size box 6.6 oz. (10% free)
  • $1.00 each / case of 24 ($24.00)

Old Time Candy

  • Price per theater-size box 6 oz.
  • $1.66 each / case of 12 ($19.99)
  • Price per 2.12 oz package case of 24 ($19.99)

Candy.com

  • Price per theater-size box 6 oz.
  • $1.61 each / case of 12 ($19.38)

CandyWarehouse

  • Price per theater-size box 6 oz.
  • $1.00 each / case of 24 ($24.00)

The only place that I found cheaper  in price was…

Amazon.com

  • Price per theater-size box 6 oz. (Dollar Tree Wins because of the 10% free)
  • $0.99 each / case of 24 ($23.68)

I guess if you’re planning on ordering from Amazon.com it’s smart to use them to take advantage of free shipping or other offers. However, the Dollar Tree does offer In-Store Pick up and also UPS Delivery! But for $4.95 shipping there, that’s nothing!!

Yes! I’ve been pretty adventurous during these last Candy Tuesday Reviews! Sorry I haven’t made any post earlier, I had a virus lately and been feeling pretty down and out. Well, I hope you enjoy this review!

Trident Dental+ & Salvador Dali!

// March 2nd, 2010 // No Comments » // Candy Video Review, Chewing Gum

I was so lucky to visit the home of my favorite artist Salvador Dali! Check out this weeks review of Candy Tuesdays!

If you’re an art lover like myself and happen to be in the Barcelona area or Girona, Spain you should check out the house museum of Dali! There were so many artistic details inside of the house that were just incredible.. Most great artist in my opinion were 100% geniuses and Dali is not exception.

Well about the gum! I wanted to do the review there and I had the Trident Dental+ gum. Honestly, I didn’t notice anything special from the chewing gum but it was refreshing. There are so many different branded chewing gums by Trident but the most important ingredient is Xylitol!

I bought this in Spain and from the looks of it many people enjoy it! At the CIAO! online shopping review portal many have commented (Spanish) on the fresh flavor.
