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  |

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!  |

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. |

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. |
