Remember way back when we'd save all of our change so we could go wild when our parents took us to the candy store or, if we were a little bit older, we went by ourselves? Nothing sounded better than the jingling of the coins in our pockets as we walked up and down the aisles, debating what candy we wanted the most. Score some of your old favorites, and maybe discover a few new ones, at this shop that sells some of the best candy in Rhode Island.
Stroll through the front door of Imagine Gifts in Warren, the largest gift shop in New England, and those feelings of childhood awe just might come rushing back.
After all, there's so much to see in this massive gift shop that covers 6,000 square feet. You'll find a little bit of everything, from jewelry and home decor to clothing and stationery.
You might even want to pick up some uniquely Rhode Island souvenirs. First, however, pay some attention to your sweet tooth with a visit to the...
Candy Shoppe. You'll feel like a kid in a, well, candy store, especially when you realize there are more than 500 types of candy from which to choose.
Penny candy costs a bit more today than it did yesteryear, but you can still score some favorites without putting a dent in your wallet.
Choose from such classics as lollipops, salt water taffy, rock candy, and gummies.
Don't forget to check out the full-sized candy bars, Jelly Belly jelly beans, and Sour Patch Kids.
All that candy is sure to send your sweet tooth into a tizzy, which means you probably want to head over to the 1950s-themed ice cream shop.
The ice cream shop is open seasonally beginning in April each year.
View days, hours, and more information on the Imagine Gift Store website. Or, stop by its Facebook page.
