70's/80s' bubble gum wrapper

[Halb]

I was chatting to a friend, who wants me to get them a particular brand of hubba hubba not available to them where they live.
It made me think of a popular individually wrapped bubble gum I recall from when I was a tiny kid. THere was this and bazooka joe and that's all I recall. I thought it was HUbba Bubba, but after a quick search couldn't spot it. Found a brand called dubble bubble, and one called anglo bubble.
Does anyone know what fairly common (iconic?) ubiquitous bubble gum was the one, back then?
it was flat, coin shaped. Pink, the wrapper was whiteish and other colours.

Anglo bubbly is the one you're describing, it isn't Hubba, they were rectangular blocks.

How old are you?
I'm 56 and the bubbly from my youth was Bazooka Joe and Anglo.
Anglo was the best.

When I was a kid these were the only sweets behind Barbara's counter that were 2p each. Everything else was a penny, except Mojos which were two for a penny or ½p each. We could fill a little white paper bag for 20p. Ahhhh, when I were a lad...

Must be anglo bubba, and all I can recall is the bubba bit.

For £15 there's plenty of choice for the bubble-gum connoisseur here...

Did Bazooka Joe have an offer where you saved up the wrappers, paid a small fee and received X Ray glasses?

I was keen as mustard for a pair of these so I could see through girls clothes.

It certainly had a little comic strip printed on greaseproof waxy paper inside.
