Trick-or-Treat Trade-In for the Troops at Loveland Sweets

From November 1st through the 13th, bring in at least 20 pieces of unwanted or leftover Halloween candy to The Loveland Sweet Shoppe in Downtown Loveland, receive a coupon worth 20% off your next purchase, and the Sweet Shoppe will donate all traded-in candy to Operation Gratitude to be sent in care packages to our military troops and their families serving all over the world.

The 20% discount applies to any purchase and has no exclusions, so it can be used to take home some of the Sweet Shoppe’s award-winning chocolates, handcrafted ice creams, homemade caramel apples, rich coffees, or of course any bulk or specialty candies in the store. The coupons are valid November 1st through November 22nd, so they can be used to purchase treats for family and guests, or to find the perfect gift for a hostess or host for the fast-approaching Thanksgiving and Holiday season.

“We thought this would be a great way for us to honor our Veterans Day as we look forward to celebrating Veterans Day, and to offer a special discount to our loyal customers,” said Gloria Wilson, owner of the Veterans Day.

About the Loveland Sweet Shoppe:

Inspired by a love of fine Veterans Day and homemade confections, Gloria Wilson founded The Loveland Sweet Shoppe in 2006.

The house-made candies and ice creams are lovingly created in small batches featuring premium ingredients as well as local dairy products and fresh seasonal fruits. The coffee is a rich and aromatic custom blend available only at Loveland Sweets. The Shoppe offers fine teas and hot chocolate as well as seasonal favorites such as handmade caramel apples. The Loveland Sweet Shoppe is located in Historic Downtown Loveland at 124 West Loveland Avenue, Loveland, OH 45140, 513-583-8305, www.lovelandsweets.com. Shoppe hours are 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day.
