Looking For

Does anyone know where we could get MacIntosh Toffee. I have been looking for about six months and can't find any in the city. Thanks

I think I've seen it somewhere... haven't bought it in a long time, but I feel like I saw it recently

It might have been a dollar store like puppyluv mentions

The dollar store across from Future Shop (beside the Pizza Delight) has a nice candy section, so that may be it. I like to get gum ($1) and chocolate bars ($0.65) from there (it's the same stuff as other stores, but just cheaper)

Oh, I didn't read that till now

That guy's post reminds me how good they tasted and makes me want some

What do the individual pieces look like? Are they like little Werther's candies?

Oh, seems they are... I found this:

I also found this, with Nestle's answer about the issue:

The guy in Trinity's link mentioned that too... maybe they'll bring the toffee bars back

Thanks, WalMart is sold out, they don't know when they will get more in. $ store doesn't have any and couldn't get an answer at Bulk Barn. Thanks for all the replies.

Two other options, Giant Tiger and the City market. I'm planning on making a visit to Java Moose tomorrow after work to work on using a gift card I got, I will check, Pete's Frootique has a section of "imported" candies and things they no longer make in Canada but still sell in the UK, you never know, they might have it there. I'll try to remember to look as I breeze on by for my free cappucino. And oddly enough you can order the individually wrapped stuff from Amazon....

I have been looking for Mack toffee forever it seems like, as a kid, I LOVED it! I was at Walmart the other day, and what do I see..an empty Mack Toffee box on the shelf!! I was heartbroken to know that they'd had it in stock and I had missed the boat! Hopefully it means that they will get some more in!!
