HADDONFIELD, NJ — Downtown Haddonfield businesses are challenging neighbors' counting abilities with the inaugural "Candy Cane Challenge" to win prizes from local shops.

Here's how it works: There's a glass jar full of candy canes at both Downtown Cookies and Patricia of Mullica Hill, on Kings Highway East. Residents can make their wager at how many candy canes are in the jar between Dec. 14-18, and make as many guesses as they'd like.

Haddonfield Financial Planning launched the challenge to support local shopping this season, and will give prizes out to two winners.
