Yay or Nay??

What do you all think of these for favors? I fell in love when I first saw them but am wondering how other people may feel? Thanks!

    I think they are cute, but I'd get all the gum out and then throw it away. So if you're fine with that, I say go for it.

    I like it a lot! It's cute. I'd give it to a kid after it was done, or refill it for DH since he's a gum freak.

    I think they are really cute!

     but I also don't know if I would keep it after the gum is gone.

    I think I'm okay with the idea of people eating the gum and then tossing it. Hey, at least they enjoyed the gum! And even if 25% of people hold onto it because it's cute and resuable, well then wonderful!

    Thanks ladies!

    I think it is a very cute and fun idea. I personally would keep it and re-use it for something.

    Our wedding favors were plastic goblets that we filled with M&M's in our wedding colors. I am sure a lot of people threw them away, but I also know a lot of people that definitely wanted to keep them and really liked them.

    I say it is your wedding, do what you want. Afterall, you can't please everyone.

    I've seen those before and thought they were super cute and fun.  I think people would keep them just because of that.  I say go for it.

    I think they're a great idea.  I'd definitely keep it and refill it after the gum ran out.
