Top Ten Uses for B-List Halloween Candy

You’re on your own for trying not to eat all the A-List* candy when the kids aren’t looking

1.      Use Tootsie Rolls® as door stops or ant bait. Really, that’s all they’re good for anyway.

2.      Sprinkle Nerds® on your carpet as a carpet freshener and to make it sound like you’re doing a really good job vacuuming.

3.      Crush up Smarties® and stir it in your coffee as a sugar substitute – as in: it’s still sugar, just a substitute.

4.      Drop SweetTarts® in the toilet to freshen the bowl.

5.      Save Skittles® for Easter, then add vinegar to use as egg dye.

6.      Use all rejected banana flavor LaffyTaffy® as an industrial strength glue. One Halloween can last you a lifetime.

7.      Landscape with Dubble-Bubble® and Bazooka® bubble gum as the new lava rock of the millennium.

8.      String Starburst® as colorful garland for the Christmas tree. See #1 to keep ants away.

9.      Stick lollipops, Dum-Dums®, and Blow-Pops® in planters or flower beds for color until spring arrives.

10.  Save money at the dentist by extracting your own fillings with Dots®, LaffyTaffy®, and Jolly Ranchers®.

* A-List Candy includes anything chocolate related. For best success, make sure you don’t get caught with Snickers® and KitKat® wrappers falling out of your pockets or Reese’s® Peanut Butter Cup breath.
