This. Trade one weird thing for another that you liked with a sibling or friend.

I assume they still sell these, but I am just guessing it wouldnt be PC to give them out. I just assume nobody puts an effort into candy anymore and everyone just buys the mixed bags from costco, target or Walmart

I remember the Brach's candy stand at the end of the aisle of Dominicks or Jewel or whatever, and it had a little box that said 3 piece sample, 10 cents. As a kid, always made sure I had a dime or two before going grocery shopping.

These are still in play. My son got a bag of candy at the local church Halloween event. I'm trying not to eat the last 2 in the bag, which I have hidden because I'm a good parent.
