Old timers candy?  

I remember those! You mean they are still around? I loved them. We have a Dollar Tree here where I live; I'll have to check that out.

I love suagr wafers. My husband bought me some not too long ago and they sure didn't stay in the house long LOL. I would have to say those are my favorites.

I forgot about those. I also remember Good N Plenty and loved it. I really like peanut butter log I think is the name of it, small candy with stripes on it and the chicken on a stick. If I am wrong with the names I am so sorry. I should have done some research before I responded. As a child I loved so many different candies and some still around and others not. OH yes, Bit O Honey....love them.

For May day I actually made May baskets for my sisters and brother and included some of the old time candy that was available...Necco's were part of the basket! I prefer Bings....I just love them. Also those carmel/ marshmallowy things that look like a pinwheel! I can't remember their names.

I love Necco wafers and we get them all the time around here..My favorite is the choclate and sometimes we can find Necco's in all chocolate flavor, yum..

Yes NECCO Wafers are are delicious. But even as a child I never liked Good N Plenty, but my brother did. I can remember going into the store and buy a little bag of penny candy, and my bag would be full. Those were the days, now I sound like the "bunkers!"happy myLotting.

Choo Choo Charlie was an engineer......Charlie says, Love that Good 'n' Plenty! That was the first commercial I ever saw that I asked my mother to buy from. And the one that taught me that I'm not going to like everything that's being advertised!!! LOL But, I loved that commercial. My uncle Charley worked for the Pennsylvania Railroad, so it was like watching him in cartoon form! But, I can't stand black licorice!!!

Mom LOVES Mary Janes. I can find them in the candy stores in the mall where you can buy by the pound, but not in the regular stores, except once in a while in the 2/$1 bags. My favorites when I was a kid were the strips of dots on paper. They were $.03 a strip when I used to buy them. Everything else was a penny or two-for-a-penny. Candy necklaces, wax pop bottles, candy cigarettes (I don't smoke, so they didn't encourage me at all) and Juicy Fruit gum (Yipes Stripes!!) Of course, there was also Teaberry Gum with the theme song sung by the Four Seasons, too. That was pretty good stuff.

My daughter loves Necco Wafers. I like them, too, especially the chocolate ones. But, she and I pass off the black ones to my mother who just can't get enough black licorice....or couldn't if she were left to her own devices. LOL

I haven't seen the NECCO wafers is quite some time. I liked them. Good N Plenty I can take a pass on. :)
My favorite old time candy is probably Maple Nuts.

I never liked Necco wafers or good n plenty. My husband loves Necco wafers though. Eveytime I go to the dollar store I will buy them for him. He also like Bonomo's turkish taffy

I liked banana now and laters, root barrels, watermelon slices, candy peanuts, Mr Good bar, bit of honey.
Moon pies were good too.

Both of those candies are great. Here in CA we have no problems finding either one.
I do love the black licorice with the sugar coating over them. I use to try and let the coating melt in my mouth before biting the licorice part. I was not very good at that.
Did you know you can buy a whole role of Necco's that just come in chocolate? I have not bought that because I love the mixed flavors. I do not much care for the purple ones. The pick ones taste like pepto bismol to me.
