Why are they sooo expensive ?

You pay for the variety available as well as the location. However if you're smart, don't but a full pound (if you can't afford it) Just buy a few of each to try different flavors all at one location. My recommendation would be to use separate bags to sit your choices if it's multiple, as later you won't be able to tell one from the other without a taste-test. 👅

Because it is in hearth of Manhattan

Because it's NYC! Everything is expensive. $14 per pound of m&ms and those are not even personalized

Because you are in Times square, because 8 dollars for 250g of m & m otherwise I won't explain it myself though you do it !!!

Marketing thats why but they had good things in a great price when I went i spent $21.67 and i bought a Tshirt, a neck langer, 21 Ozn Cup and some lipbam.
