Salty sweet treat is delicious
Love the delicious caramel and peanut combination of the salty sweet combination. The small size is just enough to fill your sweet craving. Small can be thrown in your bag for quick snack on the go of which I love.

It's delicious as a snack
I love it, it tastes good, I don’t like peanut butter very much but this is the only way I like it because the combination of peanut butter and caramel make it have a unique and very good flavor

Good snack
The nutty caramel texture with crunch. Sweet and savory. These are always a perfect combination for a snack/ sweet treat. Definitely worth the try.

My favorite candy bar
This is my favorite candy bar! It is the perfect size portion for a mid day snack, the size for the cost makes it a good value. I love the peanuts and that there are no aftertaste.

The Best Candy Bar in an amazing calorie conscious
Paydays have long been a favorite of mine, as I chocolate gives me allergy problems. The chewy and crunchy texture of a Payday is remarkable and satisfying. I am very much into staying fit and being able to have a small sized payday treat is fantastic. The individually wrapped packaging makes it easy to have just one without being tempted to eat a fully candy bar. Cost-efficient and delicious, I highly recommend Payday snack size as a quick and delicious treat for mid afternoon doldrums.

Expired and melted
I was shipped a bag of Payday bars with a best-by date which had passed 7 months prior, and the bar had melted and resolidified. My money was refunded, but Target ususally does much better than this.

Nutty bars
The nutty crunchy bars have been consistently good. Great value for price and always taste fresh. These bars always remind me of my school years,

Delicious, but one problem
There was a chunk of wood in my payday. It needs to be fixed. I demand compensation.

Where are the peanuts?
Wow, A nearly naked caramel bar. With only a scattering of peanuts coating the caramel it really changes the essence and balance of the candy bar. I suspect peanuts are more expensive that corn syrup so costs are being cut. Pretty soon corn syrup will be first on the ingredients list and overtake peanuts. The peanuts are what kept me coming back, but now that the number of peanuts has dwindled to just a scattering I think I will search for alternatives. Maybe the Nut Roll will be my new go-to?

Payday
One of my favorite candy bars. I love the crunchy and smooth texture together. It satisfies my hunger. Comes in a plastic package. I think it's an average value for the money. Would definitely recommend it.

Perfect!
These were super good! They are the perfect mix of sweet and salty. I love how the caramel doesn’t overpower the peanut flavor or vice versa. I love these PAYDAY bars!!

Great candy bar, a classic for peanut lovers.
Reminds me of my childhood, so good. Peanut lovers will enjoy this one for sure! A bit salty because of the peanuts but the nougat definitely balances out the taste.
