This is a fantastic win/win deal for all! If your kids have tons of candy they don’t really need, why not ask them to do something nice and get paid for it?
Head over here for more information about the Halloween Candy Buy Back Program along with a list of participating dentists near you. Dentists and orthodontists around town are registered to buy candy back from kids for $1 per pound (up to five pounds per kid). They donate the candy to the troops overseas.
If you’re on the East side, check this out (your kid could earn $2/pound):

Halloween Candy Buy Back Progr
Parents can have kids choose their favorite pieces and donate the rest. On Tuesday, November 1, Dr. Philipp will continue his Halloween tradition of paying $2 per pound (up to 5 pounds per child) for candy. The candy will be shipped to American troops as part of Operation Gratitude. Sending candy to troops provides a ‘taste of home’ and lets them know that children appreciate their service. Parents can bring their children to Dr.Philipp’s office in Chandler located at 3230 S. Gilbert Road, Suite 4 from 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. to donate.”
Enjoy!
