I wonder if you can help.
I need to purchase 300 individual (small) treat size bags of Haribo.
They are for a prize. We have been informed by school that they are the only sweet that is universally acceptable to all food allergies that we have in school.
So my question. Does anyone know where I can purchase these at the cheapest price?
Please no health police responses!

Home bargains usually have them, I can't remember the price, but I threw them in my basket thinking they were cheap.
Amazon have them for £10 for a 100

I'm not being a health police, (and not sure if you are already aware) but haribo are not suitable for vegetarians as they have (pork) gelatin in them.
I think you can get some veggie ones and the big strawberry are gelatin free, but then I don't think there "funny-mix" is gluten/wheat free. I found that love hearts were veggie friendly so got some of those as well as the haribo sweets as "tuck".
You can by the little bags from ebay/amazon but I found a wholesaler (brookers) were better as I run a youth organisation I was able to get membership, the school might be able to help you with a temp membership.Thanks to money saving tips and debt repayments/becoming debt free I have been able to work and travel for the last 4 years visiting 12 countries and working within 3 of them. Currently living and working in Canada :beer: :dance:0 -
I would second what Sazaccount says, most of Haribo is not veg/vegan friendly. You also may want to consider other ethnicities. I know most of Haribo is not 'Halal' eitheir. I sympathise. I recently packed sweets for a school trip and finding something that was vegan/halal/gluten free was incredibly difficult!No buying unnecessary toiletries 2014. Epiphany on 4/4/14 - went into shop to buy 2 items, walked out with 17!0

But being a vegetarian is a choice if people choice this that is there right but unfair to expect everything to be catered to them. A food intolerance on the other hand people don't have any choice and I think it is very good of the school to consider this.
People avoiding meat for religious reasons is different and needs to be considered but it is possible that this school does not have anyone that needs to be considered due to this.0 -
I'd definitely check with the school which sort of Haribo sweets they're talking about - as others have said, the ingredients in the different mixes vary quite a lot.

Why is the choice of being vegetarian any less valid than not eating animal products based on religion? They are both belief systems. Why shouldn't vegetarians expect to be catered for? Not eating animal products based upon religion is a choice as much as being a vegetarian is, except it's generally in children not a choice made by them, rather their parents who choose in my opinion to feed them fairy tales instead of animal products0 -

I agree.
We went to 3 organised firework displays this year. At each I asked, politely, whether there were any veggie options. At each I was looked at as if I had 3 heads! One was selling hot soup - but only had chicken. Had to pinch myself. I thought it would be a given in 2014!!!!Trying to be a man is a waste of a woman0
