Welcome to our Halloween Candy Counting Contest 2017! Halloween and candy go hand-in-hand and we know how much you enjoy this kind of contest so it is a natural fit.  The contest starts on October 30th and ends on Wednesday, November 1st at midnight Pacific Time. Winners will be notified by on Thursday, November 2nd.

In this edition of the candy counting contest, we’re using a Halloween favorite, candy corn. We filled a wide-mouth mason jar that holds 2 cups of liquid when filled to the top. We scattered some additional Halloween candy around for context but those candies are not part of the contest. Only the candy corn is part of our Halloween Candy Counting Contest 2017.

Now it is time to guess the total number of candy corn pieces in the jar. Give it your best shot. You can only enter once (through the comments section on this post, by email, or through our Facebook page), so think about your answer carefully! Three $25 gift certificates will go to the top three guesses (one to each winner).

Please include your first name and last name initial, and city/state (or country outside of the USA). Comments are moderated so your guess will not be shared until after the end of the contest.

* If there are three correct guesses, those entrants automatically win!

* If there are more than three correct guesses, the winning entrants’ names will be placed into a random drawing.

* If there are one or two correct answers submitted, those entrants automatically win and

* The next closest correct entries, up to no more than a total of 10 entries, will be entered into a random drawing for the remaining gift certificate(s).

Remember, your guess must be submitted by Wednesday, November 1st at midnight PT. Have fun and good luck! And, thank you for being Recollections customer.
