A new program initiated by local dentists provides a way to redistribute Halloween candy and reap rewards as well. “Cash for Candy” was started by Cashion & Cody Dentistry to help Halloween revelers relieve the household of candy overload through a buy-back program that offers rewards for the candy and sweetens the deal with a donation to our troops serving overseas.
Cashion & Cody will give $1 a pound for up to five pounds of candy along with a light-up toothbrush to every individual who participates. The candy collected, along with a supply of toothbrushes and toothpaste, will be sent overseas to share with American troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“We think this is such a win-win program,” said Teresa Cody, DDS. “It is a terrific way for children to share their Halloween bounty, be rewarded for their generosity and show support for our soldiers as well. I know the community will respond and help us send our troops a sweet message of appreciation.”
To participate, bring the candy next week during business hours to Cashion & Cody Dentistry, 1111 Highway 6, Suite 185 in the Imperial Medical Building. For more information call 281-242-0241.

Sounds like the gun buy back programs they used to do in the cities. Good marketing ploy.
