I'm not bothered by things like this. I mean, they're trying to sell candy. They're not creating post modern literature or something. Candy and nostalgia are always a good combo anyway, it's like Don Draper talking about a Hershey Bar. Well, actually, that was the presentation during which he had a major crackup, but yeah, candy and nostalgia works.

lol at the Don Draper reference. I can dig it. Still think there’s a space for originality tho. This was just an example.

The price of bags of Halloween candy have gone up so much that it doesn’t surprise me that brands are having to resort to harder sales tactics. Retro nostalgia is amongst the easiest and quickest tools in the bag. So this doesn’t shock me, although it does make me hungry for more candy.

You aren't wrong President 1. I was looking at Halloween candy tonight at Walgreen's and coudn't believe how high the prices were. It seems like everything has gone up.
