Makes sense to me!

There are these boxes of small Snickers bars located in [Mexican] restaurants around Davis. The boxes allow patrons to purchase candy for 25 cents each or 5 for a dollar. The English sign on the boxes reads (something like): "Please pay for the candy below" whereas the Spanish sign (literally) reads: "This candy is not free". Seems kind of cold-blooded to me...

I want some. But I'll pronounce it SNICK-ERS. ;)

Here we have to say Sneak-ehrs or else no one will know what you're talking about.

"This candy is not free"... that does sound harsh. I'm going to ask CC because sometimes things translated give off unintended bad vibes
