If your trick-or-treaters are anything like ours, Halloween results in a massive candy haul. And while kiddos would happily eat every piece, that’s a lot of sugar. Thankfully, it’s not too hard to entice them to trade in their stash — for money! These three places offer Halloween candy buybacks. Saving their teeth and getting some extra cash, that’s a win-win.
