Local dentist offices want to buy back your kids' Halloween candy for soldiers overseas

The offices will buy back candy for $1 per pound, and will donate all the candy to the troops deployed overseas.

NAPOLEON, Ohio — After trick-or-treating, kids don't think they could ever have too much Halloween candy - but their parents might!

Instead of having candy go to waste (or dealing with your children having a sugar high until the new year), Frankel Dentistry and Dental Excellence wants to buy it from you for a good cause.

Children can bring bags of unopened Halloween candy to Frankel Dentistry's Talmadge Road and Keystone Drive locations and either Dental Excellence location in Napoleon or Delta.

The offices will buy back candy for $1 per pound, up to $10 in Dental Excellence's case, and will donate all the candy to the troops deployed overseas.

Frankel Dentistry will take all the candy they can get; they are trying to beat one ton of candy, which is how much they collected last year.

Dental Excellence will also give away $50 to the person who donates the most candy, and $100 to the school who drops off the most candy.

Frankel Dentistry will be accepting candy from Nov. 1 to Nov. 8 during business hours.

Dental Excellence will be taking candy on Nov. 4 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.

If you don't have any candy to donate, they will also accept items such as scarves, small stuffed animals, socks, lip balm, DVDs, CDs and letters of appreciation.
