    Hi all,

    Getting married in october,

    We have the jars off Amazon, where would be the best value to get the usual selection, love hearts, jellies, etc?

    Thanks.

    I'd imagine cash and carry stores would do what you're looking for.

    Was just going to say musgraves, all you need is the account number that is it.. That or if you have a local shops ask him would he buy for you just give him the cash. or keep an eye on Groupon aswell they offers have big boxes of sweet deals...

    Just as another option if you cant access a cash and carry card, we got ours in aldi, lidl etc. A lot of these places have own brand/cheaper sweets as well as love hearts and so on. Filled our jars for next to nothing.

    Tbh I found the €2 shop, dealz, tesco, lidl, aldi cheaper or just as cheap as musgraves.

    Actually the €2 shop have a wholesalers (euro general) which is far far cheaper than musgraves. Musgraves is the dearest wholesalers IMHO. There is a wholesalers I used to use a lot beside it in robinhood est in walkinstown (can't remember the name but it is a family business) they always had great deals.
    In general I have given up going to musgraves :(

    Check with your hotel if they would provide them. My cousin's wedding earlier this year the hotel organised it as part of wedding packages. They would obviously get them in bulk at cheaper rates.


    (When we did late check out the following day, the hotel were getting the sweet table set up for another wedding - was so tempted to go back for a second helping!)
