HERE'S A USA ONLY VERSION FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO NEED TO WATCH YOUR POSTAGE COSTS! I love scavenger hunts and I LOVE candy, so this is the best of both worlds! This would be a great hunt to do with your kids or have then do it on your behalf, gives them something fun to do! THE SWAP You will have 1 partner. In your package you will need at least one piece of candy to fit EACH of the categories below. So even if a piece of candy can fit into multiple categories, it only fulfills 1 type. That means your package MUST contain at least 6 pieces of candy. If you get stumped try checking out the bulk candy section of your local grocery store. This does not have to be an expensive swap, in fact, try to stick to around $3-$4 including shipping. You will only have 1 week to send the package out, so feel free to start hunting before partners are assigned if you think that's not enough time. 1-chewy 2-round 3-fruity 4-cinnamon OR mint (can not be gum though) 5-blue 6-coconut Also, this is senders choice and NOT profile based, so if you get a package that meets all of the categories you MUST rate a "5", even if you do not like the candy! TO PARTICIPATE -You must have a rating of 4.8 or better -no 1's or 3's in the last 3 months -If you live in a countries that has strict rules about getting candy in the mail, please DO NOT sign up! -Newbies are welcome with a WELL FILLED OUT profile.

I've found everything except the coconut. The only coconut I can find is in chocolate. Any ideas maybe I'm missing something at the store. Help! LOL

@shabbypink123 that would count! As long as the majority of it is coconut it should be fine :)

I found some dum-dum coconut suckers

sduckson 05/16/2010 #

@tiffoster wow, that's great!! They make so many flavors, don't they?

I have a question... I didn't see it mentioned before if not sending a candy bar, but wanted to send something like jolly ranchers would we send just one jolly rancher or like a pack, if it comes in a pack? Or for dum-dums would we just send one dum-dum or a couple? Just curious so I don't send the wrong thing. Thanks!

@darleneh710 you just need at least 1 PIECE of candy that fulfills the category requirement, not the whole pack....unless you really want to! this hunt is suppose to be fairly inexpensive, so small pieces of candy is fine.

Thank you @sduckson

I do have an allergy to nuts, so if possible, please do not send. If you do send I will not rate you down. Someone else in my family will enjoy!! Thank you

Coconut does not count. I can eat this. Sorry for the double post.

I cannot find dum-dums for the life of me. I've been hunting every time I go into a store for something coconut without the chocolate on it. I just cannot find anything. I hope whoever my partner is will understand. I will wrap it in a plastic baggie. I do have one last place to look, the Mexican grocery on the south side of the city. LOL

rubyhousesliprs 05/22/2010 #

Bingo! LOL I found coconut candy at the Supermercado!!

sduckson 05/22/2010 #

haha, good job!! we had to go the chocolate covered route, as not too much here in our small town!

Darleneh710 05/23/2010 #

This will be a fun swap to gather items for! Will have to have my daughter help me...she loves this stuff...plus she will be eating the candy I receive most likely :)

I'm also having trouble finding coconut candy... maybe because I don't like coconut ;) I think I remember seeing coconut m&m's but none at my grocery store. Hoping to see some soon so I can get the package mailed out.
