candy stocks

From the moment i walked into the room it was loud. the two projectors were the only sorce of light we had. candy was scattered on the ground and we werent able to step on it. with no room to walk we made our way to a table all 6 groups. when he told us to pick up the candy everyone was everywhere with a lot of yelling and scrambling. i was looking for the highest stocks (candy) with the most value. i think because of my efforts we won with alot of money. some of the smaller stocks we had a lot of so that made it a little better too. with all of the different candy that we had made it to where we werent just stuck on one thing and we had more chance to make more money. all in all i think my group did pretty well with seeing on how the stocks went and how much money we had at the time and how to save our money so we were the winners in the end!!!
