Question: Where to order cheap bulk candy online?

I need cheap bulk candy (preferably of a mixed variety). The cheaper, the better. What's the best place online to order it?

I ordered some cheap candy from Oriental Trading, but I feel like there must be cheaper options out there.

Ok, I was at WalMart the other day (I think it was WalMart) and noticed in the Hispanic food aisle/section they had HUMONGOUS bags of mixed candy for pinatas! Cheaper than the big mixed bags that are put out for Halloween.

I know you asked for online, but Sam's Club also has a wide variety of mixed bags of candy. They apparently have a 7 lb. Brach's assortment, 530 pieces, for a little over 6 bucks at my local store. I am sure that Costco or Price Club or BJs would have something similar, depending upon your warehouse store allegiance.

You don't always have to be a member, sometimes you can walk in and ask for a guest pass to "try it out".

Oriental Trading! I used to love looking through the catalog as a kid and imagining what it'd be like to order all that bulk candy.

As a testament, their publication was where I learned how many items are in a "gross"

Metrocandy.com has cheap wrapped candy, including 2000 pieces of bazooka bubble gum for ~$54. I used them for my wedding and they were fantastic.

I didn't even think about warehouse clubs- and I have a friend who is a Costco member, so we're taking a trip!

Thanks, all.

I just got my ten-pound bag from Economy Candy and it has more than a few Halls cough drops mixed in. Funny.
