normally i’d poopoo these kinds of businesses, but i think this one will totally work out and wish them the best. at least it’s not some dumb obscure designer baby tshirt shop or overpriced muffin/coffee shop!
suggestion to the owner: do delivery in the neighborhood. (seriously) i bet youd make a KILLING delivering candy to all the kids in williamsburg and the immediate areas hahaha. 😉

Sweedish fish (of course), jell bars, boston baked beans. But speaking of late breaking candy news, I just found Reese’s Whoopers! peanut butter malt balls, sometimes progress is good.
If it’s a “retro” candy store in Williamsburg, the only sure bet is that it won’t be “penny” candy. We visited one such venture, Robin’s Candy Store, in Great Barrington, Mass. (a charming, well-heeled tourist town), and it was filled with old-fashioned treats–all costing about $5 a pop…
those button dots were guh-ROSS tho.

“button dots”
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking of. Although I did like the Delpha Rolls, too!
u know what pisses me off? i lived basically around the corner from economy candy for like 4 1/2 years and i never knew they sold candy to the public. i thought it was like a distributor or warehouse or something 🙁
i guess at least my teeth thank me now
