Halloween is saved! Enter M&M's rescue squad
Trick or Treat? M&M's is all about the treats. For some people, Halloween is about watching scary movies or going door to door in costumes to ask for candy. Either way, odds are, people everywhere are devouring candy. So, to prevent people from running low on their snacks, M&M's is introducing their Halloween Rescue BOOths.
During Halloween in 2023, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Westfield, New Jersey, made the most calls to the Rescue Squad, and M&M's wants to help them be extra stocked with their favorite candies for this year's Trick-or-Treaters. These M&M's Halloween Rescue BOOths are candy pop-ups that will give candy to Trick-Or-Treaters between 5:00 and 7:00 PM on Halloween night.
Houses can never have enough candy on Halloween night between handing out pieces to kids and stealing a package or three for themselves over the course of the day or evening. After all, there is nothing more disappointing than a child arriving at a house only to be told the homeowners are out of candy. M&M's Halloween Rescue Squad will help keep the happy smiles on children's faces as they arrive at each house, which is definitely part of what Halloween is about every year.
According to the official press release, the Chief Halloween Officer and President of Sales at Mars Wrigley North America stated,
""As an authority on Halloween, Mars continuously listens to our consumers and we're excited to inspire moments of everyday happiness all season long, and on Halloween night, with M&M'S Halloween Rescue Squad. Whether you're treating yourself with our M&M&'S Milk Chocolate Pumpkin Pie or looking to impress trick-or-treaters with Mars Wrigley variety bags - Mars will make sure you and your candy bowl, are covered this Halloween.""

But the excitement is not just for Pennsylvania and New Jersey. If you visit M&M's website online, starting at 5:00 PM ET on Thursday, October 31st, consumers all around the country can ask M&M's Halloween Rescue Squad to supply Mars candy for free to partaking locations within an hour while supplies last, in collaboration with Gopuff.
Regardless of whether children are out Trick-or-Treating in the neighborhood, going to Halloween parties, or staying home to watch family-friendly cut classics such as Halloweentown or Hocus Pocus or horror movies like Friday The 13th, M&M's Rescue Squad is an exceptional way to help ensure that there is a better chance that many kids get to conclude Halloween night with some of their favorite Mars candies.
When you go out to buy your Halloween candy this year, be sure to include M&M's and other delicious Mars candy treats for your Trick-or-Treaters. They are an iconic fan favorite for a reason.
