Candy cigarettes, Pixy Stix, Fruit Stripe gum, Sugar Babies, 100 Grand Bar, Big League Chew, Fun Dip, Sixlets and Chicko Sticks. Man, the memories those candies bring back.

I loved tons of things but used to seek out.

Fun Dip
Mambas
Nerds
Obviously tons of chocolate items too

I'm going Fun Dip. We used to ride our bikes to a convenience store we called "The Hill Store." (Yes, it was on a hill. We were very clever.) I'd buy rolls of caps and Fun Dip. They had the ones with TWO sticks. Not that crappy 1-stick package. That was living.

nerds and reeses.

I still like reeses but my favorite is Kit kats
 
The original hard Spree candies
 
I would find myself eating the king size Symphony bars in one sitting.... Could still do it but would be sick for the rest of the day and my metabolism couldn't take it.
 
M&M's - the peanut variety
 
When I was a kid my favorite minis to gather each Halloween were bot-o-honey - or the small boxes or milk duds or boston baked beans.
Favorite full size bars were almond-joy and whatchamacallit.
 
Sprees
Skittles
Butterfingers
 
I used to get candy cigarettes all the time.
Haha. That was the first thing to come to mind. If the concession stand had them, I was buying them.
