We’ve talked about how we get deals at Meh, and today’s Peelerz Gummies mostly fall into the category of tasty candies coming up on their Best By dates. But these are still 5 months away, so what else is it? Well, to put it bluntly, they’re weird. And that’s…a weird category to discuss. Because they’re not unpopular, as you can tell if you spend any time on #peelablegummy TikTok (no judgment). But they’re, let’s say, tricky to sell, especially to people who have not seen or tried them before. Check out today’s write-up to get a sense of what it means for gummies to be peeled, but I think even their biggest fans would agree that it’s a weird pitch. When we see things like this, we get excited. Not just because we love weird things (though we love weird things), but because we know ‘normal’ customers are scared of trying weird things. And so ‘normal’ retailers are scared of stocking and selling weird things. So those weird things come to us, at a substantial discount, which we can then pass on to all you weirdos. And at 12,000 bags and counting, it looks like you all are excited too. Share your weird candy and snack finds in the forum - we just might find the next weird deal to put on Meh. —Dave (and the rest of Meh)
