€2 type shops are usually cheapest, but some of them are not even that cheap when you look at the price of normal bars on offer these days. Like I had been getting 5 twix's for €1.25 in tesco for a good while.

A lot of these places are charging over €10 per kilo

I've been looking for sweet shops for a while now (in particular ones thta have brown chocolate mice) and here are the ones I've found in Dublin:
Mooz Milkshakes - think that's it, it's 3 Aungier Street and it's pink with stripes on the outside
Happy Pills - Temple Bar beside the bank (I think that's it, not sure though). It's pink on the outside
The Sweet Life - George's Arcade
Clearys have a sweet stall thing just inside the door, I've seen the sweets on the windows.

I wouldn't reccomend them to my worst enemy:p
Much better around nowdays.
very expensive for the poor quality they produce.

Just my 2c's
