Where is the cheapest Halloween candy?

The next few days are going to be the biggest days this year for bagged candy sales in stores. So we went through the ads to find some of the best deals.

Different stores sell different sized bags, so its tough for shoppers to make a direct comparison.

But most stores have sales right now on Mars and Hershey brand bags of snack sized candy.

Some of the best deals this weekend, according to stores weekly ads:

      - Kroger: 2 small 12 oz. Bags:  $5
      - Meijer: 26 oz. Extra large bags: $8.88
      - Walmart: 20 oz. Medium bags: $4.68
      - Target: 12 oz. Small bags: $2.69
      -Toys R Us: 12 oz. Small bags 2.49

Meantime, Walgreens has 50% off on certain brands of bagged candy, if you have a new Walgreens Reward Card.

And don't forget to check for even cheaper candy if you are at Dollar Store or discount grocery like Aldi's.

Bottom line: Kroger and Toys R Us had some of the best prices on small bags of candy as of Friday, while Walmart had some of the best prices on larger bags.  

As always, don't waste your money.
