Jelly Belly store opening at Dreamworld (but is now closed, because Dreamworld)

[Theme Park Girl]

Just thought I'd share a few piccies I took first thing this morning ☺️ Prices are pretty reasonable, $9.99 for a tub of mixed flavours which you choose yourself from the wall. They have the Bamboozled (prank) ones available as well lol. 

I think the new store is a nice little addition to Dreamworld 😆👍

was down at the store as well..  it's pretty a nice addition to the park, I do agree with who ever said the facade doesn't look very appealing but besides that It's a very welcoming addition to the park

It also seems very cramped.. Is it just me?

[Theme Park Girl]

It is small, but there wasn't a huge amount they could do with such a space tbh. This morning it was a bit cramped with so many people in there for the opening, but it was ok once it emptied out (which is how it will be most of the time) and a lot more manageable. 

It's not really the type of store you'd spend a huge amount of time in anyway  ☺️

the pick and mix wall looks great. 

Am I the only one that thinks a few retail stands plonked against the opposite wall is a bit of a miss? Like - would it have hurt, since this is a new \ first for the park for them to have had some built-in cabinetry for the hang-packs, rather than those mismatched and cheap stands?

[MaxxTheMonster]

Given the pick and mix wall looks great...  /sarcasm Perhaps they spent their budget on that and had to just put those others in...  Either that or they ran out of time and figured they would do that just to make opening...  /end sarcasm  It does seem weird to have one side looking so nice, smooth and organised and then the "clutter" of shelves on the other side...

To help make my post clearer...

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

I doubt they ran out of time. If the plan had been to put in properly fitted cabinetry etc, they wouldn't have blown the wad on the imagery affixed to that wall - they were never going to cover that up...

Went into the store on my visit to DW today and must say, it was even smaller than what the photos showed. Really small. But I suppose it is enough space for what's needed.

[rappa]

Have to be honest. I've never known so much hype and carry on for a tiny little lolly shop. 

Put me firmly in the 'I don't get it' camp. Like if this was at a Westfield would anyone care?

[themagician]

I think, like Lego, it comes down to how much you love the product itself, and that's what creates the hype for it all. And as these are first offical stores in the country, of course fans will get excited.

[rappa]

Hmm I don't think this shop is even close to on par with the Lego store in terms of significance.

I guess there's no Westfieldz out there online..

Nope, and you may have missed the z at the end of my quip, à la Parkz.

The store is now no more. It has had all the wrapping removed, but Jelly Belly products are still available in the Candy Store

why did they ever think that a jelly bean store would work ...

[New display name]

The store could have worked but the Jelly Belly store was poorly executed.  In reality all it was is a shoebox hidden in a corner lined with wallpaper with some vending machines.  Hardly theme park standards.

With less variety than the confectionery store diagonally opposite. 

[joz]

Oh well. Hopefully the Jelly store finds a new home in the middle of the aisle at a Westfield somewhere, maybe between an EB Games and a handbag shop 👍🏻

[Gold Coast Amusement Force]

There is still a section on Dreamworlds website called Jelly Belly but it mentions nothing about the store. The tab however when you open the Jelly Belly section is labbeled Jelly Belly Store...

Let's put that down to  (yet another) very minor oversight, shall we? 

They haven't had one of those for a day or two. 

[rappa]

I wouldn't care about this if they didn't try and sell it as an attraction when it opened! Like at least commit to your stupid shit.

Jelly belly is now located in the candy shop on main street next to the ice cream shop.
