That was the days you could get a lot in a 10p mixture. Recently I went in to the local shop and asked 'How much are the 1p chews' he replied '2p" 
What about Chelsea whoppers? I'll have 10 of them right now please?

I just put 'Chelsea whoppers' into Google to try and get a pic of them for you, no need to say it brought up some interesting pics, not many of sweeties though
Best pic (of the sweet I could find)

Can still get these where we live, my favourite is the orange and found a newsagent that sells the orange ones as well as two differnt mint ones, one in a blue wrapper and one green. No multi fruit ones though.

You need to go here then: The best sweets ever! from the old-fashioned traditional, sweetshop
Oh, and I LOVE the Alphabet sweets - I used to eat so many I almost threw up!
Someone mentioned Flying Saucers? You can get an entire pack (hundreds of 'em) from CostCo. Little paper bombs of fizz

Highland Toffee - a softer eating toffee bar. You used to be able to get everlasting toffee too . . .I think you could anyway! This is hard to get hold of at the moment - we have a supply for now but quite how long it will last we're not sure... (that's not some tacky sales pitch... it's the truth sadly!)
