Did Santa miss the mark this year? Worry not! Skittles Holiday Pawn Shop is returning to Toronto on Boxing Day offering Torontonians a chance to trade colourful candies for unwanted ugly sweaters, thoughtless secret Santa gifts, and presents from family members that make you wonder “how are we even related?”

Now in its third year, the annual pop-up pawn shop has already announced that this year will be its last, which means everything must go. “The beloved Dale the Dealmaker and store pawnbrokers are ready to give out double, triple, quadruple the Skittles in exchange for holiday gifts you don’t want.”

It’s all for a good cause too. According to a press release for the promotion, “Pawned items in good condition will be donated to United Way in Toronto and York Region to help spread the holiday cheer. Hot items for the season such as new socks, PJs, gloves and personal care products will get pawners extra Skittles candy.”
