Candy Table for College and HS Graduation Question

[js]

Hi.
I will be having my dd's college and my ds's HS graduation together at the same place/same day.
It is in a hall. I will be having a candy table that I have catered.
I need, though, "fill in" for the candy table.
I currently will be purchasing:
Cotton Candy
Boxed Popcorn
Camamel Apples
Cake Pops

But, I want to add myself:
Large "jaw breakers"
Jelly Beans
M&Ms (or something similar)
Chocolate?
Rock Candy (the sugar on the little sticks)

Do you experts know where I can find the above at a very reasonable cost?
Thank you ALL SOOO MUCH!

Amazon might be an option.

Costco frequently runs M&M's on sale. They also carry Jelly Belly beans and they have tons of different chocolate candies. I'd try Costco if you are a member. The rock candy and jawbreakers may be a little harder to find for a reasonable price since those aren't as common.

Rhode Island Novelty and Five Below both have uncommon selections at reasonable prices.

Thank you. Ill look online since I dont have these in New York.

If you have a WinCo near you, they have a decent section of bulk candy bins.

Try Candy Crate. It is an online candy company and prices are usually fairly reasonable.

Sams/Costco/BJ's Warehouse - any warehouse store

If you're looking to go with a school color theme, try Oriental Trading. Also there's the Candy Warehouse website.
you'll have an added shipping expense because it's summer, but the prices are great and they have most every color of m&m, Hershey kiss wrapper, rolo wrapper, gum ball, sixlets, etc

I got some nice candy for my folks' recent 50th anniversary party from Oriental Trading (ordered online). I wanted specific colors AND gluten free (they label)-I got light blue and gold Sixlets and Jordan almonds. Shipping was fast and I had some coupon code for free shipping.

If you can get into the City, Economy Candy is great. They are on Rivington Street and have everything you could think of. Take a look at their website to get an idea.

I find Oriental Trading Co. to be pricey for candy. However, they're good if you want something very specific. I had some luck at Sam's Club--I got a big box of gumballs, a tub of peppermints (the soft kind), and sour candy--like licorice, but sour gummy sticks. They had other choices, too, but I was going for things that looked "beachy". They also had big bags of wrapped chocolate (kisses, miniatures, etc.) and big bags of various types of M&M's. Probably other stuff, too, I was looking for my themed stuff.

I found a nice variety at dollar tree, big lots and dollar general. I used smaller bowls so it didn't take as much.

Party City also sells the rock candy and large gumballs and chocolate piece candies.

Economy Candy!

For my daughter's sweet 16, we got giant pixie sticks at Sam's. They were a huge hit with the kids.

Thank you all so much! Costco and Party City took care of it all! I was going to order online but just decided to get it all done. We also went to a candy store and ordered caramel apples, cotton candy, boxed popcorn, chocolate covered rice crispie pops and lollipops.

Thank you all so much for all the suggestions! I really appreciate it!
