LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) – Families with leftover Halloween candy can trade it for prize tokens and help send a sweet holiday surprise to service members through a local candy buyback program.
Children can receive five prize tokens for each pound of candy they bring in, up to 10 pounds. Donations are being accepted at Double T Smiles, 6100 82nd St., until noon on Friday.
Even if you have no candy and no kids at home, you are encouraged to buy a bag or two for a donation that will be greatly appreciated. The timing is good since a lot of stores are still selling Halloween candy at half price. All the candy will be used to stuff stockings for our soldiers who will spend the holidays away from home…
