mainor5251 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Been looking at some old threads and seen different ones recommended. Was wondering if someone had try both the Refresh triple mint from A&A and the Double Bubble polarmint tab from sams and good say which one tasted batter, lasted longer, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlock Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 I've tried both. I liked the triple mint gum from A&A better. Better taste IMO and more attractive looking in the machine. The triple mint flavors I actually can say I liked. Whereas, the polarmint flavors I would classify as "acceptable". Too many faded colors in the polarmint, as well. Neither had a flavor that lasted very long. Maybe the triple mint lasted longer. But if it did, it lasted only slightly longer. I was ok with the polarmint. If triple mints weren't available, I would have no problem switching back to polarmint. But, while I have a choice of the two - I'll keep using A&A's triple mint. For me and my needs, I order triple mint when I have other items to order from A&A. This helps save on shipping. I don't order anything online from Sam's except the polarmint. So, I could never take advantage of any lower costs on shipping. I just paid what they offered since shipping was already included on the Sam's website price.

Do you get that "Special Order" option online? I just went through my sam's cart on line as if I wanted to order the polar mint and never got that option. I went as far as the last page before the purchase. It was asking me to very my order, amount, card, and shipping address before hitting submit. There was a "confirm shipping method page" before that, but the only choices I was given there was whether or not my order was tax-exempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 You have to go the store service desk to use special order. They also have a brochure that shows all the candy and the prices. I have one, if anyone wants to know the prices I'll post them. It's Cocord stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainor5251 Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 I think I'll go with the refresh triple mint, if concord is gonna put out such a low quality gumball (850 DB gumballs) I can't imagine their standards are that much higher for any of their other products.

Would you mind posting these prices, particularly the polar mint gum and the fruity tab gum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Most of the gumballs are the same price. 850 ct 19.13 1080 ct 20.07 Tab gum #592250 9900ct 28.33 Dubble Bubble Assorted #591896 9900ct 28.87 Dubble Bubble Tropical #971594 9900ct 28.87 Dubble Bubble Polar Mint Not sure how old this is though. I picked it up at the service desk about 4 month's ago. Even if it has had a small increase it would be cheaper than paying shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iolaus Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Thanks, Hillbilly. That's about 17 bucks cheaper than the "shipping included" price on their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
