Aight let me get a witness if ya feel me on this. Remember back in tha day when used ta go to tha candylady. Aight..... Remeber u used ta get cha big candy(snickers, m&M, and ish). Then u used ta get cha 50 cents ish( ya freeze cups, pickles, and ish). Aight.... Remeber when u used ta get down to ya last lil change, and tha candylady be like u can get 3 of these for a penny. Yeah erybody who lickin they lips right now was raised in tha hood. Man !!!!!!!!!! Them lil penny candies that be **** tha outside and gum inside usta be good as hell. But cha always had to eat bout 12 of em before you had a mouthfull of gum. And 23 before you could blow a bubble. Yeah this is another one of those meaningless I just passed my Marketting Final and I'm bored waitin 4 my next test type of post. But HEY leave a post if ya feel me on tha penny candy ish. P.S. Write whateva ya want so we can all get to tha BIG "Level 5" in this thang. Holla

omg i love this post!! cuz in n.c. i used to have a candy lady and she sold everything!! Im feelin u on the freeze cups only we called 'em iceys lol i dont know why we wasted our money and it was only frozen kool aid but it always tasted better from her house. I loved it cuz she would always hook me up w/ free candy cuz she was also my dance instructor. But newayz im back here in ohio again and they never really had a candy lady~ we used have a ice cream lady when i was younger but she passed and there was this one store~evryone called it "the green store"(yeah it was green) and they used to sell penny candy~ i would go there every day in the summer time when id go visit my grandma~and theyd put ur candy in the little brown paper bag and staple it dang those were the days!

HELL YEAH. TRAVELING FROM ARIZONA TO GEORGIA, I WAS HOMELESS FOPR ABOUT A WEEK. MY MOM HAD TO SATY PROJECTS FOR ABOUT 7 DAYS WITH THIS LADY NAMES KORA IN COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA. THRE WAS A RAIL LINE THAT RAN RIGHT NEXT TO THE COMPLEX, SO YOU COULD HEAR THE TRAIN LOUD AND CLEAR AS IT PASSED BY. ROACHES EVERYWHERE! KORA HAD MENS RUNNING THROUGH HER HOUSE BECAUSE SHE WAS A CRACKHEAD. AND WE GOT KICKED OUT AFTER A WEEK BECAUSE MY MOM WOULDN'T "GET DOWN" WITH HER... ANYWAYS, EVERY AFTERNOON THE FRUIT LADY WOULD COME BY. SHE SOLD NOW AND LATERS, LAFFY TAFFY, AND AIRHEADS. AND SINCE IT WAS SUMMER, SHE WAS ALSO SELLING FROZEN KOOL-AID IN A STYROPHONE CUP. THAT WAS IT. THE REST WAS JUST FRUIT AND PICKLES. AND SHE DIDN'T HAVE THAT TRADITION "ICE CREAME MAN" MUSIC PLAYING. SHE WAS PLAYING "SHAKE WHAT YO MOMMA GAVE YA" BECAUSE IT WAS THE SUMMER OF '93... MAN, YOU BROUGHT BACK ALOT OF MEMORIES...
