It does appear I'm using PH as a personal searching service - but you guys are so good at this.

Apart from the usual Costco, Bookers and Batley's, does anyone know where to get jars of sweets from (traditional ones, the sort you buy by the quarter) in the Wiltshire area.

I see lots of sweet shops buying them in jars and 3kg bags but a)one of the shops here is really rather snotty, and b)I cannot find them anywhere.

Can anyone shed some light on it? I've found places online, but there has to be somewhere that I can go and buy stuff- even a local market trader does £1 bags of sweets he bags up from bigger ones. The chap there isn't the owner (it's just a kid looking after it) and has no idea where they are from.

I'm really looking for raspberry bon bons, cherry bon bons and sherbet pips as a starter.

Thanks smile

only company i have used is hancocks. they have many branches and all they sell is sweets so they are much better than bookers etc. not sure if there is one near you.

How come, where ever I go, the place I want is located where I last lived! Move to Swindon, need to use a sweet shop that has a branch in Sheffield. hehe

Thanks for that - a trip to Bristol me thinks!
