A little reminder from a small business owner…

Stealing from a small business is NOT a victimless crime.


This week alone—just within two days—we had three One Chip Challenges stolen, valued at $21.99 each. Then this morning, we caught someone putting merchandise into a large tote bag. When questioned, everything suddenly went back on the shelves.

Just a reminder that we do have security cameras.

We’ve worked hard for 18 years to build our small business. Theft hurts, especially when you’re a small business who tries to support our community as much as possible.

Unfortunately, we will be watching more closely and may ask that large bags and totes be left at the front.

We truly appreciate the vast majority of our customers who are honest and supportive. ❤️ Thanks so much for your continued support. 🥰

Please support small businesses — don’t steal from them.

🍫 NOW THAT’S A BLAST FROM THE PAST! 🍫

How many of these chocolate bars do you remember? 👀

Malted Milk, Bar Six, Sweet Marie, Eat-More, Aero, Caramilk, Wig Wag (now called Curly), Smarties… some are still around, while others have disappeared into candy history! ❤️

Which one would YOU bring back if you could?
And is there one here you completely forgot about?

We LOVE a good trip down candy memory lane at Sweet Retro-spect! 🍭🍿

😂 If you grew up before cell phones, you KNOW!

Two kids, one landline, and the ultimate challenge… trying to keep a straight face while asking:

☎️ “Yes, could I speak to Sal Monella?” 🤣

No caller ID. No texting. Just a phone book, a little creativity, and way too much confidence. 😂

Who else remembers making prank calls like this? And what was your go-to fake name or question?📞😆
