After a year of way to many cavities and dentist bills, I offered my kids a $100 dollars to not eat candy for a year (2010). One year of no hard candy. They could have gum, home made treats and cookies but no candy. Kaleb and Katie did it. One year of no candy. A hundred dollars is a lot of money and they were so excited to get it on New Year's morning. I think they are enjoying their candy even more this year.
