There has been people selling bags of sweets at £14,500 for charity. There was an auction website selling the last pic'n'sweets from an Woolworths shop. Ed Adams, the guy who managed the workshop in Bromley, South London filled up the bag just before he closed his store. Then he put up the 800g bag on the internet for a bid. Finally, after 115 bids he agrees to sell it at a high price of £14,500. The money he made was givin to a charity called Retail Trust. There was fizzy cola bottles, rhubarb and custards, strawberry bon bons, Turkish delight, white mice and pineapple cubes in the bag of candy. Nigel Rothband, Retail Trust chief executive, said: "It's taken us by surprise. It's very exciting and much more than we were expecting."
