Jenn Strobel who is the owner of Buddy and Howie's Candy Store in Ocean Shores Washington was amazed that a deer came into the store to look at the candy that is inside their store. The good thing is that the deer only was to take a piece of taffy candy before leaving the candy store on his power after a short while inside the store out of being curious. The reason the deer entered the candy store was likely since food in the forest where the deer lives ran out of food for him to eat. Link is upi.com/4071693231870 via @upi

The deer needs its candy fix every now and then too.

Thank goodness there are not a lot of damages or anyone getting hurt. A spooked deer can deliver a powerful kick. At least now she can brag that her candies taste so good even wildlife are dropping by to make sure to grab one.

Well, the deer was happy to get some candy. And a polite deer too went in and then left on its own,

@Deepizzaguy But I’m surprised a wild animal would eat candy.

I hope the deer enjoyed the taffy. I"m glad the deer wasn't injured. They can go bananas when they break through a window and enter a store.

I am in agreement with you that the deer was not injured while having a few candies inside of the store before leaving safely.
