M&Ms were available to buy at convenience stores a year ago but now I can't find them anywhere!

Where can I find them?

...and I'm not friends with anyone in the military so please don't say the military base

Thanks Smile Wink

I bought some Monday night from the small supermarket in Itaewon on the corner of the road that leads to The Wolfhound (opp. Austrian Deli)

Try something different. Who cares about M @ M's. You can have bag after bag when you head back home.

It sounds like that's what the OP has been doing for a while.

Sometimes the alternatives just aren't good enough! Wink

Sometimes the Foreign Food Mart in Itaewon has them. I bought dark chocolate M&Ms there several times, but haven't seen them for a little while. Worth going in a checking every now and then though.

My friend found Peanut Butter M&Ms (yum!) at Namdaemun a couple of months ago. I'm not sure where exactly, but you can find a lot of good stuff there. Maybe someone else can elaborate on the actual directions to the confectionary section of the market.

Yep. My local Home Plus usually has them.

I'm starting to want M&M's now...

There are offbrand M&Ms available in the candy section of most neighbourhood marts. They're in a red packet. I first bought them hoping they were offbrand imitation Skitles. I can't tell the difference. If it's Peanut you're after though, I think you may be SOL. Anyway, when I was last at the Foodmart next to What The Book in Itaewon they had some non-peanut ones, if your brand loyality is stronger than mine

Almost directly across from the Alpha store are two convenience shops with many foreign foods/candy/cookies/chips. The other places that would have it are located in the underground foreign market/arcade which is also across the street from the Alpha store. There are two underground levels with about 5-7 stores that carry foreign candy. Man, I've spent way too much time in Namdaemun.
