5 out of 5 stars The 50s rate, it was THAT great!   July 12, 2008
My husband loved his 50s box of old candies. We kept looking at all the candy saying, "Remember this one, remember that one? That one was MY favorite! That one is My favorite!" My husband would not share his candy (for the first time) as he savored every bite. I did get one box of candy from him. That violet flower-scented gum which was MY favorite from my childhood days. He absolutely loved this gift and I will buy again in the future. If you want a box of fun, this IS IT!


5 out of 5 stars Great Product!   July 10, 2008
I bought this for my father for Father's Day and he absolutley LOVED it! Everyone thought it was such a great and unique gift. My dad along with my aunt and uncle went through the box of candy with huge smiles and lots of "Oh my gosh! Remember these?" There was ALOT of candy in that box! I didn't expect it to be that much!


5 out of 5 stars A Blast at the Retirement Home!   June 28, 2008
I sent this to my father for his birthday and he had the best time handing out the candy in the retirement center where he lives. Everyone found out it was his birthday this way. He didn't think the candies were exceptional tasting but he enjoyed seeing his friends' eyes light up when they saw their old favorites. It generated a lot of talking, laughing and reminiscing. A bunch of ladies got into the candy cigarettes and had their picture taken "smoking" in the lounge! Dad is very frugal and unfortunately, the price slip was included. So, first he says to me, kidding a bit but also showing his German roots: "Gayle, $40 for a box of candy?!" But he called me several times after to let me know that he got his $40 worth of fun! I did consider getting the 40's gift box, as that was more my father's era, but this gift has a lot more candy and I figured he'd enjoy having plenty to share. My 76 year old father thought the candy selection was right on target for what he remembered buying as a kid.


3 out of 5 stars Worth the money   June 7, 2008
I bought this for a 50th birthday present. Very good selection. Fresh candy. Would recommend for a candy lover in that age group for a gift.
