I bought 36 pounds of chocolate bars by mistake.

[Hugo Drax]

Amazon Prime now was selling these Mars candy halloween packs for 1 dollar! yes 1 dollar a piece. I thought they were small bags since I don't get many folks on halloween. Assumed they were some special 1 dollar sampler bag promotion.

I go to my app and choose 6 bags. few hours later Knock knock I open the door and I see the front of my house piled up with bags of candy!

36 pounds of chocolate (6 bags!) I am not even supposed to eat much, I guess I will be handing a shit ton of candy this halloween contributing to diabetes. 3 pounds of candy for each person

Anyhow these are the bags that arrived. At a cross roads here thinking about what to do with them.

That is nuts, and you only got charged 6 dollars? I'd bring a bag to work, give a bag to friends or family to hand out, etc. Not worth the hassle to return if they only charged you a dollar a bag!

When I go to the link, I see $29+ for the bags of candy.<phew>

yup 6 bucks. And I will hand out to family etc.. That is a shit load of candy, and the good stuff. But for some reason on the Amazon prime app they are selling those bags for 1 dollar each.

I'd risk diabetes. It's worth it.

Halloween candy is usually consumed in my house as 50% to the kids, 25% to the wife's stomach, and 25% to the wife's workplace.

Throw them in the freeze, lasts longer & they're actually pretty good cold (srs).

"What the hell!"

 

[DigDog]

Splurge to friends & colleagues and make sure they understand they owe you big.

you're one of "those" snowflakes.

Give out normal amount to the trick'o'trickers.

Give the rest to your local food bank. I'm sure some less fortunate families would appreciate some chocolate treats.

 

[DrunkenSano]

Eat it all!!!

 

[clamum]

Not sure how you missed that they were big bags but oh well, it's pretty funny. Yeah like others have said I'd hand them out at work, mostly (cause I don't have any kids trick-or-treating at my apartment), cause while diabeetus sounds kinda fun I'm not much of a candy person. I love gummy candies (Life Savers Neons, raise the roof) but not so much chocolate-type stuff. Anyway that's a killer deal for 36 pounds of candy! LOL

 

[Ichinisan]

It happens.

 

[snoopy7548]

Melt them all into a giant candy ball and just tell kids to grab a handful off of it.

 

[rchunter]

Save half and give the rest out next year. They won’t know the difference.

 

[DAPUNISHER]

I voted give it all out. You will be a legend, and the kids will probably tell their classmates, who will then make your house a must visit next year. Then you will have a more desirable candy to kid ratio.

I concur.

But that means you have to do it every year or you're letting down the children.

Except next year, give out dental floss.

lulz, I would not risk it. It might get your place TP'd, or the flaming bag of dog crap treatment.

If I won the Lottery, before telling anyone, it would be fun to handout giant candies like the 1lb Reece’s

Then move so that the kids are disappointed next year.

Anyone else read the Amazon reviews? (Yeah, people with no lives actually post reviews for bags of candy bars). Apparently, there are very few highly-coveted Twix bars in that mix. Fish out all the Twix bars and put them up for auction on eBay.

I did and it was a complaint fest. "I only got 6 Twix bars, the rest were junk" lol

One dude complained it didn't ship with ice and it melted in October.
