Reddit mentions of 200 pcs White Kraft Paper Merchandise Gift Bags Shopping Sales Tote Bags 6"x9"

We had 165 guests, and probably bought about 60-70lbs of candy (most websites recommend you have 0.5 lbs /person).

We used CVS and Amazon for bulk sized bags of the typical stuff (5lb bags of kitkat/reeses, peanut M&Ms, Haribo gummy bears and gummy cola; 1lb bags of Dove chocolate) and various online vendors for non-traditional gummy/licorice, since I'm a candy-fiend who wanted brand name, extensive, yet slightly outside-the-norm variety. We used Sweet Factory and Economy Candy, since they had the most extensive collection but there's a ton of different online vendors out there, that are all similarly priced, such as Candy Warehouse and Oriental Trading (good if you want to shop by color, and don't care about brand) We thought about springing for personalized M&M's, but found them kinda pricy and not worth it--since we had so many other types of candy, I doubt anyone would have noticed. If we were JUST doing M&M's, we probably would have done it, though I remember the shipping time taking awhile (at least in late April, during the start of wedding season)

Our candy was out the entire time, and at the end, all the chocolate was gone, most of the gummies were gone, and the licorice was eaten the least. The most popular of the unique candies were Gummy ice creams. We had about 10 or 15lbs left over, which we ate for a few days, then gave the remainder away.

All our glass jars came from various thrift stores and Michael's, and were a range of sizes, heights, and shapes. We got the scoops, bags, and a few plastic risers from Amazon, some trays from Ikea for the scoops, and then gave everything to our coordinator to set up and lay out, and let them figure out what looked best. It was a HUGE HUGE hit,and one of my favorite things to plan.
