Importance of Candy Grams

Candy Grams are small paper messages to which are attached Valentine’s Day-themed candy. The Candy Grams are used as a way for students to ask one another to the dance. They are purchased, filled out, and distributed to the recipients in homeroom every morning. Taking his Uncle Gary’s advice, Greg tries to make himself look popular by buying a large number of Candy Grams for himself. However, this way of attracting girls fails.
