At one of the candy stores in Banff?
Thorbertthesniveler@reddit (OP)
No! Even better! A Red Apple store in Sundre.....where we also ate lunch at Burger Baron!!!!

Oh awesome!!
There’s a really interesting documentary about Burger Baron that I watched recently. Let me know if that’s something you’re interested in and I can send you a link!
Thorbertthesniveler@reddit (OP)
Sure! I can share with my friend who loves Burger Baron.

Might I recommend checking out the Bulk Barn -- a veritable bonanza of "retro" candy that we all ate as kids but forgot about. Bottlecaps, Sweet Tarts, Lik-em-aid Fun Dip, Gobstoppers, Chews, Ring Pops, Popeye Cigarettes, licorice pipes/cigars, pressed sugar candy in little plastic trash cans, etc.

Love looking at the candy at the front counter at Bulk Barn! All the good stuff and Thrills (gag) is there!
Church42@reddit
One of my favorite candies
One of the few candies where the brown/tan flavors are preferred above all others
daddysdamagecontrol@reddit
Bro that candy is seriously fire like way underrated fr
TheNewGuyFromBahsten@reddit
They shrinkflated these as well. Taste is still kind of there though. Love the root beer ones
Best-Dragonfly4241@reddit
you can buy boxes, not sleeves, on amazon. because i do
ouijahead@reddit
I’d give anything for a big bag of tart n tinys.
Thorbertthesniveler@reddit (OP)
Oh man those were so good!

Love Bottle Caps! I bought a pack at Circle-K last year. It was an indulgence cuz I think I paid like $3-something for them. I enjoyed though.
Thorbertthesniveler@reddit (OP)
These were surprisingly cheap! Less than 2 bucks for the roll
therightpedal@reddit
I buy a 10 pack of the boxes every few months. But... I get no joy out of it, it's just a great low sugar treatment for my diabetes. Poor man's glucose tabs.
The rolls are actually quite hard to find now!

I went bananas trying to find Gobstoppers when they were gone there for awhile. I bought a case of them off Amazon and felt no shame. I'd do the same if these were to become hard to find. The grape ones are best, followed closely by cola
DRTENin10-22@reddit
LOVE those!
CherryCherry5@reddit
I found them once a couple of summers ago and couldn't believe my eyes! Bought them all that summer, then I never saw them again and the store I was buying them from closed. I'm sad.
PulmonaryGravy@reddit
Bulk Barn usually carries Bottlecaps along with several other classics. :)
CherryCherry5@reddit
Like in the bins, in bulk?? Mine definitely doesn't. 😭
PulmonaryGravy@reddit
Usually up front at the checkout, not in the bins.
CherryCherry5@reddit
Oh. I'll keep an eye out then.
LauraPtown@reddit
I just want a sleeve with root beer and cola flavors. They are the best ones, there will be no arguments on this.
weedexpat@reddit
Love em all but the rootbeer flavor. The 90s can keep that shit!
rangeghost@reddit
One of my favorites!
The theater boxes of them are easier to find (I usually see them at Walgreens) but I prefer them in the rolls, because the candy pieces are bigger and easier to chew.
Separate-Succotash11@reddit
Those are good. Haven’t seen those since I was a kid.
ThomasSirveaux@reddit
They have them at Five Below. I get them often.
Dirtweed79@reddit
Those and sprees are my favorites.
Suitable-Operation55@reddit
Omg
Ok-Cranberry-2466@reddit
Almost forgot about those!
