1.0 out of 5 stars Not Satisfied!, January 1, 2008

By	C. Lutz - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I ordered the 50's Gift Basket for my parents. I ordered it a couple of weeks before Christmas and the package did arrive. However, when I asked my Mom how she liked it, she told me that there were a few items missing. The packing slip had listed what all should be in there, and the following were NOT there: charms assorted squares,smoothie peanut butter cup, cherry mash, chocolate cigarettes, walnettos.

I sent an email to Hometown Favorites on 12/17/07 telling them that these items were missing and requested they satisfy my order. As of today, 1/2/08 I have not heard back from them.

Needless to say, I will NOT purchase anything further from their company...and would suggest you do the same!

3.0 out of 5 stars Sentimental Gift, December 25, 2007

By	J. L. Huttemann-kall "jen_h_k" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Overall it is a neat box with some great candy that brought back many memories for my parents. Some of the pieces seemed a bit stale and hard and the moonpie was basically crushed, though we've only eaten a few pieces so far. You couldn't find this type of candy anywhere so it is a great concept to bring all of it back again in one box. My biggest complaint was the ground shipping which was over priced in my opinion. I'm not sure how long this company has been doing it but it appears they have some things to correct in order to succeed further. I noticed too that the candy was all in a jumbled mess. I'm not sure a woman would have organized the box in that same fashion. So please try to correct these issues and I will buy from you again. Thank you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun gift, June 9, 2006

By	Kckgrrl - See all my reviews

This a fun idea. Most of the candy is available at local stores, but it is nice to have someone else put it all together for you. The box is cute with the warning sticker on top. My parents loved it and reminisced for days. They got a kick out of how much their little grandchildren loved the candies.
