Halloween Candy 2015, the Halloweening

The most wonderful time of the year is just two short weeks away.  One of the big parts of the best holiday ever (better if people would give me Xmas presents on Halloween like I would prefer - but they won't) is candy. 


I've probably bought more candy than I should have already (though I have two more weeks left to do so, followed by Wal-Mart day after shopping - Target never has 50% off the day after any more).  So far, it is less than last year - I've only bought candy during this period that was on sale (mostly buy one get one 50% off). 


What ever happened to fun sized Baby Ruth?  Target doesn't stock them.  Last year I found them at Wal-Mart, but I haven't been there this year (and their website suggests that they are out of stock near me). 


Now for the breakdown so far this annum...

Once again, it seem like I am getting better value from Nestle candy packs.  The two that I opened (a 40 piece and a 90 piece) gave me more than I was anticipating.  Somewhere out there someone is probably getting shorted a little.  So far, so good - getting bonus pieces on everything except Hersheys.  No Reese's Peanut Butter cups for me so far this year is strange.  I tend to like Nestle a little better anyway: Butterfingers are one of my favorites, lately I have been into the Butterfinger PB cups, I like 100 Grand and I prefer Baby Ruth to Snickers.  I have never been a huge fan of Nestle Crunch though. I will probably be missing a few Hershey candy types this year that I really like.
