Trick-or-treating is going to look WAAAAAAAYYYYYYY different this year.
But it seems like a lot of people have taken that to mean – “great, I’ll just buy all this candy and eat it all myself.”
According to the National Confectioners Association, Halloween candy is selling BETTER this year than it did last year.
Sales are up 13% over the same time last year and Halloween chocolate sales are up 25%.
They also ran a survey that found 80% of people say they’re trying to figure out, quote, “creative and safe” ways to celebrate Halloween this year.
Whatever that means…
