Has anyone found the Breast Cancer M&Ms in a store anywhere? I have looked and looked and can't find them. I want to put them in small cello bags for my October 1 workshop. Dawn

I have not been able to find them yet, either!! :(
I would try looking for other all-pink candies that you could use incase you can't find the M&Ms. Jelly Bellys (is that spelled right??) are a favorite alternative. I think you might have to check out your local mall for a candy store to get a bunch in one color though.
Or, if you have the time and $$$ you can order your own M&M colors at their site:
I gave up trying to find them and bought the pink and white swirl Creme Savers instead. There is an awesome card with Hope is... made here on this site with them. I like this one better actually than the M & M one. Check it out and see. The Creme Savers were much easier to find and were indivually wrapped.
I know that M & M is donating money and all, but when I couldn't find them and had stuff to plan out, plan B was the way to go. (And it was still an awesome card and demo to make).
I found them while checking out at our local grocery store Price Chopper. They were in the front of the store, between closed registers in pink/white display boxes. You may want to call your local grocery stores and ask if they carry them!
I'm like some of you....gave up running all over trying to find "M&M"s and found some alternatives....Good & Plenty pink & white candies (licorice flavored), pink striped Hersheys kisses, pink & white jelly belly coated chocolate candies (M&M lookalikes), etc. I just want to get STARTED on these things....
Once October rolls around I'm sure we'll see the special m&m's everywhere...
I found them at our grocery store, Hy-Vee. They were on the end cap and were selling for 2.50 a bag, which was a mark down from 3.19. There was bogoodles of them.
IT'S POSSIBLE THAT A LOT OF THE STORES ARE JUST STARTING TO PUT THEM ON THE SHELVES NOW....SINCE OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH. WE'LL HOEPFULLY SEE THEM IN A LOT MORE STORES THIS WEEK.

Where are you from? I am in southeast Iowa and know that Hyvee is a Iowa only store. Just wondering! Jamie
I am a Southeastern Iowa girl too, I am from Keokuk. My husband sells to Hy-Vee stores and actually they have them in Illinois, Missouri, South Dakota, Minnesota, Kansas and Nebraska. Iowa is their biggest state though. It is our store of choice for obvious reasons .
