Sweet Satisfaction
After all that, I forgot to mention the upside of discovering new places in Boston - sometimes they’re candy stores. I’ve seen the Arcade at Coolidge Corner before (318 Harvard Street, near the Coolidge Corner Theater), but never ventured far inside its mini-mall walls.
But since I was on a walk of exploration yesterday I gave it a go. All the way in the back I found it, the Holy Grail of sweet teeth everywhere - a candy store with bins. Sure, you can get candy at any of the zillion drug stores in Coolidge Corner, but they don’t have bins. Sweet Satisfaction is owned by a Brookline woman, so you know your candy money is going back into the community instead of down to RI (the headquarters of CVS).

Hi Jemima:
I am the owner of Sweet Satisfaction in the Arcade Building in Brookline. Thanks for stopping by and thank you for the compliments. Yes, I have bins full of chocolates, candies, gummies and hard candies and cases with dipped fruits, chocolate covered pretzels, truffles, fudge and I have lots of sugar free. I welcome special orders and I will deliver and ship. Come visit, often!
