Tastes and smells are the brain's time machines. Though sensory perception is unable to transport you to the future, it can take you back to third grade homeroom, when you first ate a Sugar Daddy. Taste the sugary fun of childhood without the scraped knees, math tests, and wind farm accidents with today's Groupon to Suckers Candy Inc. For $10, you get $25 worth of candy, chocolates, ice cream, and more.
Relive the innocence of the childhood you knew before the iron fist of life squeezed innocence from you as juice from an undernourished lime. Share the treats of your youth with a new generation of sticky-fingered kids. Suckers offers bulk gummies (most are $8.49 per pound except some Jelly Bellies and organic candies) and packaged candies (starting at 10 cents per item) including candy cigarettes, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Ring Pops, and Curly Wurly bars. The friendly folks at Suckers Candy will help you put together a gift box full of candy ($6 value for decorative box). Suckers also dishes out single-serving, pre-scooped ice cream from Plush Horse in Palos Park ($3.25 for one serving). Choose from a ton of flavors.
If you're beginning to stock up on holiday treats, Suckers offers a wide variety of chocolaty goodness (prices range from $9.95 to $24 per pound). Chocolate-dipped marshmallows dotted with sprinkles automatically induce salivation, while the taste of cherry cordials puts you in an unshakable holiday mood. Ready yourself for sweet-thirsty family members with truffles, caramels, almond bark, and more. Pretzels dipped in chocolate and dusted with rainbow sprinkles make a fun hostess gift for the bevy of holiday parties you plan to attend.

Groupon Says
Thy Silver Tongue
Humanity's true greatness lies in the ability to enjoy candy, a pleasure somewhat shared by our animal brethren, but completely lost on modern robots, who, despite many other technological advances (deadly titanium claws, 9-pin firewire ports), tragically lack a sense of taste. Groupon's own resident robot, Adonis 12, sampled some confectionary creations and gave us these literally tasteless reviews:
Chocolate-covered Pretzels: "These sweet, twisted falsehoods betray no difference from their bare-flesh counterparts, to my indifferent jaws. Both mash with similar yielding resignation."
Wax Bottles: "The translucent blue liquid contained within these wax pouches serves as a soothing lubricant to my gyroscopic balance unit, but nothing more. Oh, to be a man."
Pixy Stix: "This tube of raw, uncompromising sugar is rapidly corroding my sensory matrix! The granules are corrupting my ethics calibrator! Quickly, deactivate my solar core, before I-...MUST...DESTROY...MANKIND.
