Red Dollars were introduced in 1926 as oval pieces of gum emblazoned with a dollar sign, but back then the name had nothing to do with the flavor. With about 75 pieces per pound, perhaps Red Dollars are not a hedge against inflation but they sure are an investment against going hungry especially when you desire their delicious cherry flavor and fun to eat chewy texture.
Here's a fun fact -- Red Dollar derives from a slang expression that means something new, popular, or innovative, and it wasn’t until the 1940’s that the name was changed to Red Dollars to reflect the candy that everybody loves.
Delicious to eat and a good value too is why Red Dollars are one of the most sought after gummi candies that we offer not to mention amongst the hardest to find. I guess we can chalk that up to "supply and demand."
Net Weight 4 lb.
Approximately 75 pieces per pound

Please note that as of 2019, these candies are now made by a new manufacturer and have a "new and improved" cherry flavor

I love the red dollars. I am disappointed I can't get the snaps anymore.
We, too, are sad that Snaps are no longer available! Rest assured, we will certainly let you know when and if they become available!

Very Good, But Not Red Hot Dollars
I was hoping that these would be like the red hot dollars of old, but they are not. They seem a bit softer and more cherry than raspberry. The red hot dollars had a texture more like Swedish Fish or Jujy Fruits, while these are closer to Dots. That said, they are excellent, were very fresh, and I would certainly buy them again.
Thank you for taking time to leave a review. We apologize that they did not meet your expectations of being similar to the old red hot dollars. We appreciate your feedback though and are glad you still enjoyed them. Thank you for choosing CandyFavorites.com!

Everything Wonderful...Fresh always, Deliver Quick. The only think was the order was large & in one bag would have liked in two bags. Recommend to everyone...Thank you Always
My wife and I love these Cherry Slices. The taste is rich with flavor, not just sugary. We've purchased Cherry Slices from 3 other online stores and none of them came close to the quality of these. It's all about the flavor and the smoothness of the sugar. We have bought them several times and plan to continue.
Great mild mint taste. Melts in your mouth. Nice size too.

I Snaps by the POUND!!!
I saw I could order Snaps after a lifetime drought. I order 6#,s, and ate em all. I saw a problem forming so I ordered 9# of Snaps in 12 oz packs. Still . I wanted sealed Snaps for the long haul. So I ordered another 6# bag … and ate it. The pandemic hits and I salivate over my sealed 12 oz bags. Then I ate em. A year later I found Snpas online. The were not cheap. I bought 4 12 oz bags. Opened the last one yesterday.

Perfect amount!!
With decent weather on Halloween, wanted to make sure I had plenty of candy to give away. Delivery was on time and kept me out of the stores buying old candy that had been on the shelves since Labor Day.
