Default desperate! help me find chocolate coins for my st. patricks day baskets!

I have a bunch of little baskets made (thanks Cambria for the tutorial!) and wanted to put the gold covered chocolate coins in them for St. Patricks Day, plus we have a tradition that the Leprechauns come visit our house on St. Patricks night and leave these little coins all over for the kids to find!

I have looked at several stores and been unable to find them this year!
If you have seen them anywhere please let me know! I'm on a mad hunt for them as soon as I get off work!

Do you have a See's candy store nearby? I know they used to carry them.

I've seen them at AC Moore recently. I have also seen them in the Dollar Tree in the past.

Default Try...

Christmas Tree Shop, if they have those where you live.

We do this tradition too. I forgot to prepare, but I have already bought a lot of Easter stuff. I plan to separate out the green jelly beans and put them in a little pouch for my son.:cool:

He's seven. He is hoping the little green men are going to turn his hair green tonight while he's asleep. He also has a little trap set up and a coffee can with a lid. He's going to try to bring Leprechans in for Show and Tell on Monday morning for St. Patty's Day!

thank you so much! I checked out four stores and finally found a whole carton of them at Shopko! The Leprechauns made their visit to the house last night and there were gold coins for everyone!
