There's a shop in our little town that opened it's doors as some sort of 'olde sweete shoppe' where all the sweets are in big glass jars and get weighed out into little paper bags. I gave it two weeks before it closed again through lack of custom, but no, they seem to be doing quite well.

Mind you, I liked Jamboree bags that had a few cheap sweets and a tacky plastic toy in them. And those tubes of bright yellow sherbet with a liqourice straw. Then there things that I think (believe it or not) were called Jubblies...a sort of ice lolly in a pyramid shape. One of my favourites were things called, rather imaginatively, Potato Puffs...which were, surprisingly enough, puffy bits of hollow potato shaped a bit like a mini shredded wheat but about half the size. They're not around any more, the nearest thing to the taste of them is Hoola Hoops, but obviously a completely different texture.
