Get Paid $100 for Unwanted Halloween Candy while Supporting American Troops
Nationwide Program Turns Halloween Candy into Cash; Ships Sweet Stash to U.S. Soldiers Overseas - to date over 2,500 pounds of candy shipped and over $24,000 for candy donations paid out
This program is a reprisal of the company’s wildly successful 2018 and 2022 initiatives through which HealthyWage—the world’s leading purveyor of financially-induced wellness contests for individuals and corporate/team-based weight loss challenges—has collected a tasty total of 2,500 pounds of candy and paid out more than $24,000 in candy donations.
“We’re thrilled to again support Americans in their quest to avoid temptation, manage their weight-related health, and bolster their bank accounts in the process,” said HealthyWage Co-Founder and diet gamification pioneer David Roddenberry. “By rewarding individuals with cash in exchange for their excess candy while also supporting our troops overseas, it’s a win-win—one that can help people start their ‘holiday diet survival’ mindset to avoid needless seasonal weight gain.”
“Calories aside, Halloween also often means an overload of sugary treats, which can have a significant impact on children's dental health,” Roddenberry continued. “It’s well known that excessive candy consumption leads to an increased risk of cavities, tooth decay, and other oral health issues—problems that can be avoided. This year, parents can take advantage of our ‘Cash for Candy’ program, which allows families to donate excess candy for a good cause...and earn some money in the process. In doing so, children can learn the value of charitable giving while keeping their smiles healthy.”
Relative to its range of popular “dieting for dollars” challenges that are available year-round, some of which paying out as much as $10,000 per individual, HealthyWage is founded on substantive research and "double-incentivization" methodology that proves competition and rewards—especially the cash variety—can as much as triple the effectiveness of weight loss programs. And, the proof is in the performance in the form of quantifiable and undeniable metrics that behavioral economics-based gamification works when it comes to weight loss.
As case-in-point, since its inception in 2009 and as of September 2024, HealthyWage has paid more than $67 million cash rewards for a collective 4.5 million pounds lost. Also exemplifying the power and efficacy of HealthyWage’s approach are throngs of HealthyWage success stories (both female and male).
“Studies continue to show that monetary incentives serve to enhance the effectiveness of, and duly complement, weight-loss programs of any and all sorts, especially when paid out quickly like our various programs,” said Roddenberry. “The average HealthyWager participant more than doubles their investment if they are successful at achieving their goal. The financial upside potential is impressive.”
So effective is this diet gamification method, famous personalities have joined HealthyWage in the fight to get America fit including global health and fitness expert Jillian Michaels, actress and talk show host Sherri Shepherd, and dietician and nutritionist, Ilana Muhlstein.
If this is the Halloween season when you would like to thwart temptation (or help your children achieve the same) and be financially rewarded for doing so—all while being charitable towards American troops, the HealthyWage “Cash for Candy” program is a sweet opportunity. Even for the holiday temptation and New Year’s resolution seasons just beyond, the company’s cash-fueled approach to weight loss and management just might give you that extra dose of motivation that’ll truly help you stay the course, shed weight and make some extra money in the process. There’s no better time than right now to bank on yourself.
