Haribo Stores

I saw a reference to this in our local free newspaper and thought it was an April Fool's joke at first, but there really are Haribo stores :eek:

How much do I have to spend to get a chance of a 2080Ti in the bag ?

I wonder if the staff are made to talk like the people in the adverts!

It's a shame they don't do a self service automated (so it's not dirty like pic n mix) "bag your own" thing where you can pick your favourite individual sweets from each genre and make your own hybrid style

I'd have all the tangfastic minus the cherries, the eggs from starmix and the milk bottles and bears from supermix

I'm not too surprised, from what I understand Haribo do a huge range of which we tend to only see a small portion in the UK normally.

I suspect I'd exit the store with a trolley full of various Haribo's and a pack of insulin (sold at the checkout

).

looks like they exist! although I dunno if the communal scoop is much to worry about if you're going to munch a tub of haribo

There are stores for a few of the sweet brands - somewhere near Harrods there are two different ones but I can't remember which. (EDIT: Also M&Ms World).

Haribo already have a store near Wembley. They do a great range (and pretty reasonable prices too)

There is only 1 Haribo store. That's Overlockers

I hear if you buy enough Haribo you get some hardware in the box.

I think a Haribo shop would be cool if they sold everything they make, world wide.

If I was rich, I would so have one of those in the lobby to my home cinema. Alongside a proper popcorn machine.

They have one of these at the holiday park I'm visiting this week. It also supports contactless payment, so I can just pay with my phone

Yes, I have used it

I used to work around pontefract, all you could smell was the sweets in the air! Always made me pop into the shop and buy a packet of Haribo.
