Today, November 4, marks National Candy Day. If you think we just had one of those, considering that everyone gets free candy on Halloween, you’re not alone. In fact, there aren’t that many deals for the holiday this year. We did find a few to help those out seeking cheap or free candy.
It’s not clear how today became National Candy Day. America is the largest consumer of candy, according to BrandonGaille.com. The average American eats 25 pounds of candy a year, with half of that coming from chocolate bars alone.
As Closet Samples notes, there are only a few site with National Candy Day deals.
Dylan’s Candy Bar
At Dylan’s Candy Bar, you can get 20 percent off your order with the code FOILTURKEY, which is available to use all month. The code BIZGIFTS can be used to get 25 percent off gift baskets and tower orders $75 or more. That code is also active through November 30.
The store is also offering free shipping when you buy the new Maple Waffle Crisp Bar.

#NationalCandyDay “Come With Me And You’ll Be In A World of Pure Imagination”
I’m guessing whoever made #NationalCandyDay a few days after Halloween had kids with tempting bags of candy left sitting out on the counter.
Candy… The stuff your dentists tell you not to eat and you end up hating the dentist… #NationalCandyDay
