Now there's Cash For.......Candy

A growing list of local dentists and orthodontists are using a capitalist’s tool to combat cavities.

They’ll pay your kids to turn over their Halloween candy.

Your tykes get $1 a pound. The candy is shipped to our troops overseas. And the dental professionals are so glad to have all that sugar off the streets.

You can check who in your neighborhood is trading cash for candy by going to
HalloweenCandyBuyBack.com.
