Those are amazing... (but I'm biased, I'm from Argie). And you can get them in other countries (e.g. NZ)

Bonobon falls nothing short of amazing, he :D. Do they also sell the Bonobon peanut butter cream in New Zealand? They started doing so here a couple of years ago, and it definitely rocks!

Take care,
 
I was supposed to post this ages ago

I didn't know they had peanut butter ones...
 
yesterday i got my huge candy haul from vas_a_morir!

here's a pic:

he got me everything i wanted and more, plus some things i have never had before (possibly only sold in his area?) and a lot of stuff i was missing pretty badly! needless to say, this was a great pick-me-up for the week. i already shared a few of the reeses pieces with my classmates. a big hit! jarosh loves them too of course. we have so much candy now our candy bowl is overflowing. we had to devote an entire shelf on our bookshelf all to candy!
 
yeah the shipping is a killer on the packages... ridiculously expensive. however if you've got some disposable income, go for it.
 
WOW this is seriously awesome. I'd be up for the next one, but I'd certainly arrange so both spent the same amount of money. (Anyone have problems posting food stuff to America?)
 
aww damn am I too late for this? I'd love some USA candy ( don't really know what to ask for ).

Also how much is it to send stuff overseas? I'm really short on cash right now but if anybody wants to trade I gotta know how much it'll cost me :)
 
Im definitely up for another swap. Not sure why i didnt take part in this one, another should be sorted!
 
Same here. The mildness of the candy makes it as though eating the whole thing is perfectly fine. I want some right now!

I just PMd tmaynard. Hopefully and if he has the time for it, he can host a new one.

He's currently out of town so it may take a day or two for him to respond, but I'm friends with him and we've talked about doing another one before and I think he's definitely interested in it.

People, keep responding saying you want another one and he's sure to cave in at some point. ;-)
 
Great news. Looking forward to this...

EDIT: I'm also tempted to send an empty box with a piece of paper which says: 'There is no cake.' :D

But I'm no dick, of course.

STOP IT

funny anecdote, I am currently chewing on the LAST piece of gum from what straydog1980 sent me. And now it's back to shitty spanish chewing gum.

Oh man, I sure wish I had shitty spanish chewing gum. I wish I were at Barcelona -or at Madrid, for that matter- right now, so I could go to El Corte Inglés :lol.
 
Yeah, a new thread would totally rock! I'm from Holland and desperate to try some Beef Jerky, which I only know from movies and cartoons. Cartoons namely :D

Go for it!

Dude, that's so strange.I was eating beef jerkey that was mindblowing from my region, and I thought about how I wish I would have sent it in the candy exchange.

If there was another one, I would probably send out this...



So delicious
The Russian nested dolls of candy. Open the big package...and there's three little packages. Open those...and there's a bunch of little wrapped pieces. Though perhaps that's to slow me down when I consume the entire package in on sitting.
 
I just found a vintage candy store in Denver recently. I got masses of bottle caps, Charleston chew's and abba-zabba's. Unfortunately the Abba Zabba's were too old and were brittle instead of chewy :'(
 
How and why have i missed this?!
I could have sent you delicious italian candies =(
[actually i'm just mad i can't get free international candies from you guys]

:'(

So I mentioned to Akia that my wife and I like Fruit Splosions...

Really happy with the haul. The Splosions should last a while and there was a pack of Count Choocula in there as well, which was an awesome surprise. The Jones candy is cool too.

This was a great idea. Pity the shipping wound up screwing so many people.

And now to start eating.

I showed my mom this picture and she was pretty happy that y'all enjoyed it. At the beginning she thought the whole thing was a scam. So actually seeing the stuff on the other side was reassuring for her.
 
If you guys do start a new one, do NOT include user Google in it. He doesn't send out candy, despite me sending him his. :\
