Richmond's Halloween candy divide: Too many kids or too few

Some Richmond-area residents are buying less candy this Halloween or rationing treats. Others are stocking up on more than 1,000 pieces. Why it matters: Candy prices are soaring, and how much Richmonders need to buy depends a lot on where they live, Axios' reader survey found. By the numbers: More than a third of the 182 survey respondents said they're buying less candy, switching to cheaper brands or giving out fewer pieces per kid. Another 45% said rising prices aren't affecting their Halloween plans. Nearly two-thirds expected to spend $50 or less on candy this year, while a quarter budgeted $51 to $100. And of the four respondents who plan to spend more than $200, three live in Richmond. The intrigue: One Henrico resident said they're buying two-thirds of their usual amount and swapping some chocolate for cheaper fruit snacks, while a Chesterfield resident switched from full-size candy bars to fun-size treats. Zoom out: Halloween candy prices at major retailers have jumped 71% since 2021, with a 100-piece bag averaging nearly $17, per a FinanceBuzz analysis. The big picture: With Halloween falling on Saturday, some residents are stocking up for bigger crowds, while others are wondering whether anyone will show
