My new addiction...SIGH!

(1/7) > >>

Xanthia, Maker of fine Tin-foil hats since 2007:
So, I was getting fuel this morning, and I wanted a crispy snack for later in the day and they were out of the Turtle Chex Mix, so I saw a bag of Caramel Bugles.

If you like Salty Sweet things, DO NOT GET THESE, they are ADDICTIVE.  I have begrudgingly shared my little bag with the people in the office, and we all love them, BUT, when a friend made a run to get some more, they were no where to be found.  We called the company, and they are only made to be sold in Vending Machines and in Gas stations/convince stores, they do not sell them in grocery stores...

The nice lady also almost laughed when I started asking about them because she said she had logged over 50 calls about the product in the past few weeks with people asking where to get more!!!

Now I am addicted and have to hope the gas station where I got mine has some more so I can get my "fix".  SIGH!
 This is almost as bad as me not being able to get Cherwine here in FL!!!

Anyone else become addicte to a hard to find product???

CutebutPsycho:
YES! I hate when this happens...  :) My personal addiction that is hard to find: Tetley Ginger Mint tea. I haven't been able to find ANY in my town since summer time. What a drag!

FolkRockFan:
Yeah - crispy M&Ms. My Mom and I both LOVED those. Unfortunately, not enough consumers agreed and, well, you can't find 'em anymore. I e-mailed the company and received a reply to the effect of, "We're looking into it," so who knows. :)

Oooh, me, too!  I adored those!

My addiction is to moon cakes, though - thankfully I can only get those at a certain time of year, or I'd be as big as the moon!

My poor husband looooooves cadbury chocolate( he's English)
 They have stopped lot of sales in Israel, and only a few shops around Jerusalem have the odd bar or two, usually at exorbitant prices( even though I think our Elite chocs are  better.. ;)
 so whenever I see aCadbury yummies  in a shop  ,I  pounce on thme  like a mad women  and get him a few to have as a special treat.
