Abstract
A gift bag is provided having a generally traditional gift bag configuration with four side panels, a closed end and an open end opposite the closed end for inserting therein and removing therefrom a gift or other such item. At least one of the side panels of the gift bag is double-walled, thereby forming a cavity within the gift bag. A plurality of candy pieces is contained within the cavity. A candy dispenser is integral with the gift bag having a container into which one or more of the plurality of candy pieces may enter after exiting the cavity through a small opening therein. Once the candy dispenser is moved to an open position, a user can remove the candy therefrom and then move the candy dispenser back to a closed position in order to contain the remainder of the plurality of candy pieces within the gift bag.
