I promise this is my last post about the wonders of Seaside until the next time we make a trip out there.
The Candyman is the only place in Seaside we have ever gone as a family for a candy stop and while I am sure that the other stores are nice and would get us our sugar fix it just wouldn’t be the same.
To start with they have at last count 190 flavors of taffy, assorted chocolates, $1.00 Tillamook ice-cream cones, Jelly Belly beans, and other assorted candies. So that means no matter whom we are with we never hear “I don’t like anything here, can we go somewhere else.” One stop anything is always good when you have a large family. Plus the prices are fair and there is a rewards program. True you have to spend $100 to get $10.00 in free candy but someday we will remember our punch card and hit the limit and it will be glorious.
They also have the wheel of chance and where you can win free candy or tickets to the hall of mirrors. No matter how busy or empty the store is one of the amazing staff is willing to man the wheel. Plus no matter how your spin goes you get a piece of taffy so everyone is a winner. Trust me with our little herd everyone coming out with a prize a great thing. Even Mini has gotten his chance to spin the wheel, no taffy for him yet though. He’s just a little to young.
The staff is truly amazing. I would have to say one of the biggest reasons why we continue to make it our go to destination is they employees. I can’t always say that we have the best and most well mannered children and while we have never had a melt down in store (thank heavens) we have never felt anything but welcome even when they are being rambunctious. As a parent feeling welcome with my children always makes me feel better about spending my money especially when it’s on something frivolous.
Oh I should add the disclaimer no one has paid me for this post. This is my personal opinion. I will happily review products and companies in exchange for freebies but this is not a sponsored post. This is just a little love to one of the places that we have had happy moments at as a family. If you want to visit them:
