Post Oak Pediatric Dentistry is buying back those goodies you collected during all of that Halloween trick-or-treating and sending them to troops overseas.

Dental facilities across the country are participating in Operation Gratitude, an effort to send 60,000 care packages to men and women in uniform.

The offer is good from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday at Post Oak Pediatric Dentistry, which is located at 2155 Post Oak Tritt Road.

Post Oak Pediatric Dentistry will pay $1 per pound of candy. Participants will be put in a drawing for four movie passes.

Last year, Operation Gratitude collected and shipped 125 tons worth of candy.

Elsewhere in Cobb, MUST Ministries is accepting Halloween leftovers and distributing them with meals for residents.
